    I'm willing to bet that he won't be the only one who votes that actually does buy.

    If you give a mouse a cookie... then Floyd Mayweather will charge you $100 bucks for a stale crumbly ass cookie.

    I normally buy all PPV, both boxing and MMA... I can promise you, that will be one I don't buy. No chance

    They could be, potentially.

    But none of them are fights that get me particularly fired up as a fan.

    The one that should no doubt have the best chance of being competitive is Cotto-Canelo.

    Is Mayweather vs Berto PPV? I thought it was free TV. I am not buying this sh!t. Nope. Can't do it. Canelo vs Cotto? YES. I think so. GGG vs Lemieux. Pretty good fight. But, no. This is not a fight I would pay to see.

    I agree with you on the competitive part, but GGG fight will be pretty exciting while it lasts. Especially if they plan on loading the PPV card.

    Cotto vs Canelo is a great match up
    GGG vs Lemieux will be entertaining while it last both worth the money im more excited for Cotto vs Canelo though

    Not by much. They're all grossly overpriced.

    Isn't the GGG fight even already being pegged at $60? Which usually means $70 for HD?

    :lol:

    I read on the Scene the Oscar was gunning for it to be 50 or under. But it'll probably end up being 70.:verysad

    I had heard he said "under 60", which I assumed meant $59.99, or if we are lucky, maybe $54.99 - but they ignore the caveat which is the extra $10 they tag on for HD.

    *******s!

    Hmm, you actually bring an interesting factor into play I hadn't considered.

    I wonder if the first PPV in terms of date chronology, will have an advantage over the last two.

    What are the dates again? Sept 12, Oct....I have no idea!

    :lol:

    What are the dates?
