Hamed V Vasquez. Hamed V Kelly. Hamed V Barrera. Hamed V Mcllough. Hamed V Augie Sanchez. Hamed V Calvo Lewis V Tyson Lewis V Holyfield Lewis V Klitschko Lewis V Tua Calzaghe V Roy Jones Calzaghe V Hopkins Collins V Benn Calzaghe V Eubank Hatton V Pac loads and loads. Some of the best fights I most looked forward to though I havent paid for because they show the big US fights for free like De La Hoya V Trinidad , etc Its only marketable British stars they exploit to the British public to get cash.
Tyson v Lewis Tyson v Etienne Vitali Klitschko v Corrie Sanders Tyson v Danny Wiliams Vitali Klitschko v Danny Williams (Put towards at a mate's house) Ricky Hatton v Kostya Tszyu (Again, put towards at a mate's house) Tyson v McBride Ricky Hatton v Carlos Maussa (3rd time I put towards at a mate's house lol) Ricky Hatton v Luiz Collazo Ricky Hatton v Juan Urango Ricky Hatton v Floyd Mayweather Ricky Hatton v Juan Lazcano Ricky Hatton v Paulie Malignaggi Ricky Hatton v Manny Pacquiao Amir Khan v Andreas Kotelnik Amir Khan v Dmitriy Salita If I remember rightly, they were in that order aswell.
The earliest pay per view I remeber was Bruno V Tyson rematch in 1996. But I didnt have Sky TV at the time and got a mate to tape it for me.
I have brought everything from Bruno/TysonII to the middle of this decade. Since 2005 I have been more picky PPV's were the best thing that has happened to this sport in the last 20 years. If you do not believe me, I guessed you never been to an 80s Closed Circuit bout!
I haven't paid for a PPV in almost a decade. I have a mate that always buys the PPV's so I always get to watch it for free. All I pay for are the beers.
I buy 90% of the PPV's but sometimes I have to put my foot down if I think its a joke, they replay it for free the following thursday or I can always stream so no lost sleep if thats the case.
Im a cheap-ass. I like to go down to the pub. As Gaz said, it's not really the cheaper option because of drinks, but I like to go out, socialise, it's more fun, and the beer tastes better in a pub than at home. Sometimes I do buy the ppv though. I've bought a bunch of ppv's but the ones I remember buying are Hatton v Pacquiao and Hamed v Calvo. Hamed v Calvo was a peice of **** PPV.
Nah, sitting in the comfort of your own livingroom, ice cold beer, few friends round who know boxing. That beats the bar envirornment hands down for me.
