    I will buy it. And for ticket sale it will have to be in Nebraska.
    No body complained when HBO decided to make you not pay for Golovkin vs Lemueiux. Nobody bought that ****.

    Its a better matchup than GGG/Lemieux but it's still not PPV worthy and may suffer the same fate at that fight did in terms of PPV sales:verysad

    Ohh, it most definitely will unless Crawford turns into Adrien Broner overnight and self promotes like no other.

    I like Crawford and all, he's cool, but no. In fact, there aren't many ppv fights I'd buy right now.

    Crawford has not got what it takes to be a ppv star

    Crawford isn't a PPV attraction just yet. Not even if its against Postal. He needs to beat Postal to become one.

    A great fight however that needs to happen soon.

    Even at that price it is over charging.Top Rank put a series of smaller PPV's on a few years ago and called it "Latin Fury".I think they charged $29.95 and it featured up and coming Mexican and Latino fighters.Didn't go over too well but at least they tried.
    Crawford on PPV at this point of his career will be a failure.

    The Golovkin ppv had Gonzalez-Viloria and Luis Ortiz on the undercard which is pretty good for a ppv undercard and it still didn't make the numbers their promoters were hoping for so a Crawford ppv has a big uphill battle if it is going to sell well.

    I would buy it if they had a solid undercard.
