    Why are we the fans being asked to pay 50 bucks to watch an HBO BAD fight this weekend. Typical GBP Bull****, and Oscar is once again, ****ing over the Fight Fans for the sake of the Almighty Dollar. And who the **** is paying 50 bucks for this ESPN 2 crap?

    I agree, if he wasnt PPV material with Chico(RIP) who is more PPV worthy than JMM, what makes JMM vs Casa acceptable?

    Plus the undercard is ****, nothing exciting or worthwhile, Ill watch the Main event on stream to see El SepticTank lose badly then retire hopefully so we can be done with him for good.

    I was planning to go to that one as well actually. The ticket is a bit more reasonable at $75 as apposed to the usual $100 for the cheap seats. Hatton and Mag are gonna sell for $165. I just thought I'd throw that out there for those who may be interested. I'm hoping Marquez applies enough pressure to make Cas more active than he normally is. We'll just hafta wait and see, I guess.

    There are limited PPV stars. Oscar de la Fishnets, Floyd Jr. Manny Pac, and now we are running out of options. Casamayor against anyone but these guys is strictly HBO BAD.

    Marquez-Casamayour should not be a PPV fight IMO. Have no idea why it is. Probably some political background reason which i could care less about.

    If I was you, I would go protest at the Golden Boy Promotions Building in downtown Los Angeles.

    Jack Presscot......(Peacefully walks up to the Golden Boy Promotions building headquarters, and walks behind the building on the lawn)............"WATERBOY!!!!WATERBOY!!!...BRANG ME SOME WATER!!!!"

    Bernard Hopkins.....(An old fashioned Buggy, being pulled by two mules turns the corner, and B-Hops, wearing some overalls, and a big straw hat sits in it, and heads Jack's direction)...."Here I comes, hold on now!"

    Jack Presscot....."Good Morning Bernard....Where is your "Bawss" Oscar this morning?"

    Bernard Hopkins.....(Gets off the buggy, gets the tin cup, and dips it into the barrel in the back of the buggy, and offers Jack the cup)"Here you is kind strang'uh....whut brangs you here to de GBP Headquartuhs tuday, suh?"

    Jack Presscot....(Drinks water, and spits it out) "Blah, Gotdamn, that **** is warm!"....anyway, Hello Bernard, my name is Jack Presscot, and I need to speak to Oscar about this PPV nonsense. Casamayor on PPV?"

    Bernard Hopkins...."Well, suh, I bleeve dat Casamayor is a great fighter, worthy of de pay per view. and besides dat, he de Big House Cook. He cook all de meals here at Headquartuhs an' at De Massa's home. Yestiddy he made us some cone bread, and collah greens, and fatback, and pig feets, and chicken necks and chitlins.....and fried Okra. It were a meal fit fo de' King of Englund, yes suh!"

    Jack Presscot....."Wow.....Anyway, could you call Oscar on that walkie talkie there?"

    Bernard Hopkins....."Sho' Nuff suh" (Talks into Walkie Talkie) "Hopkins to de Massa, Hopkins to de Massa....Massa Oscah, suh, dere a man out here in de yard who wants a word wid you, suh"

    Oscar de la Hoya..(Over the radio)..."Damn it, Bernard, I said I did not wish to be disturbed, I'm getting my pedicure.....who the **** is it?"

    Bernard Hopkins...."He say hid name be Jack Presscot Suh."

    OScar de la Hoya....(Outraged)....."JACK PRESSCOT!!!" "Thats the Internet Forum Geek at East Side who talks all the **** about me....the Golden Panties, and the Golden Fishnets and all that, the one who despises my fans.....you *******, get off of my property before I have your internet geek ass arrested for trespassing"

    Jack Presscot..(Takes the radio from Bernard).."Sure, I'll leave. But first, answer me why the **** a Joel Casamayor fight is PPV worthy....this country is in a recession, theres a Boxing drought this month, and now this insult? 49.95 to watch ****ing Casamayor, and Forrest? GBP is supposed to make boxing better.... Are you ******ed?"

    Oscar de la Hoya...."Officer Mosley, we have a Code 452 on the South end of the Building by the Water Cart, eject the tresspasser from the Property Please....over and out"

    Jack Presscot...."And further more, whats this **** with you avoiding Margarito, and wanting to charge the fans to see you fight a 4 foot 3 Chinese midget Muther****er?"

    Bernard Hopkins....."Suh, Manny Pac is a Filipino, not Chinese."

    (All of a sudden, Jack and Shane Mosley, in AKAL Security Guard costumes round the corner with police batons, and jump Jack Presscot, while Bernard picks up the radio, gets back on the buggy, and flicks the reighns at the mules, "Giddy up Bessie and Ol Remus" and rounds the corner in a hurry.)

    Jack Mosley....."Your under arrest for Tresspassing....you have the right to remain silent..."

    Jack Presscot..(Struggling with handcuffs on).."Jesus Christ, Jack, have you no pride, and you too Shane, gotdamn, you have a fight coming up and you two are playing rent a cop"

    Shane...."Hey, this is nothing. Jin is giving him the pedicure"

    2 title fights can't be on regular HBO WCB, or BAD? This is all about the sheer GREED of DLH and GBP.

    But i must say that i don't like the way you make Hopkins out to be some "yes" man. He's anything but that.

    If you want to see how B-Hops acts around Oscar, go rent "Driving Miss Daisy", and just picture Miss Daisy as a 5'11 35 year old Mexican American fighter.

    Sometimes it isn't because it is a big fight that it is on ppv. Sometimes it is because it isn't big enough. If HBO isn't willing to pay enough for the fight to pay both the boxers what they want they do PPV with revenue sharing. Here's a little example the numbers might be a little off. Say hbo offers $1.5 mil for the fight. There's no way for both boxers to make the money they would expect to make. So HBO says ok we'll do PPV and you get this percentage. The reason we are seeing so many PPV fights that people don't want to pay for is because hbo isn't paying what they used to for fights. They aren't putting the investment into the sport that they used to, but as long as all the promoters beg and plead to have their fights on hbo this won't change.
