    Only big fights should be on PPV. Cotto/Margarito: PPV. Cotto/Jennings: Who the **** is Jennings :) And Pavlik is a solid fighter and KO artist, but I'd never pay to watch him fight a regular guy on PPV. I think it's wasteful to watch these guys fight regular guys on PPV, but if you don't have other means of watching fights like this and you really want to, then I guess it's allright. I motherfukking hate how expensive PPVs are. 55 dollars for DLH/Pacquiao? Get the fukk outta here.

    Cotto has the draw on PPV everytime....otherwise he wouldn't be on.

    Margie and Williams wouldn't justify the PPV with the ticket results....
    thats why Margie - Mosley is on regular HBO.

    Its all about marketability....if you don't like ....don't pay....however,
    miliions will including myself.

    This is an independant PPV. Therefore, I don't have a problem with it. If HBO or Showtime were distributing this, than that would be a problem. This card is going to be two mismatches. However, boxing junkies as well as Cotto and Pavlik fans will probably have no problem buying this.

    They are getting greedy with that PPV. Neither of them deserve to be on PPV after getting beat down in their last fights.

    You are right! But you can't blame the boxers. That is the promoters fault

    I like both of those fighters but no f-cking way im ordering them on PPV fighting tune-ups...I got pissed whenever I ordered a ppv and Chavez Jr. was fighting cab drivers...WTF?? If it wasnt for Pacman beating the **** out of oscar that had to be one of the worse boxing ppv I ever seen...Total mismatches...This cotto/pavlik card should be on HBO BOXING AFTER DARK not PPV...:deal

    I agree, i can see Jennings giving Cotto some problems for 2 or 3 rounds because he can box and throws decent combinations but he doesn't have anything special about him and i see Cotto putting a beating on him and stopping him around the 7th.

    Its a joke that Jennings has got this fight with Cotto, MJ isn't even the best WW in Britain.

    I definitely agree those fights shouldn't be on ppv because of their opponents. **** boxing politics **** me off. Why can't we just see the best fight the best. I like watching cotto and pavlik but ****... especially considering both lost their last fights.
