If it goes to PPV ..atschFor real if they couldn't get Hopkins Calzaghe on PPV why would this go to PPV? Its being reported that Showtime could be in the mix but Hopkins purse would be the biggest obstacle .. THOUGHTS ?
PPV? no my friend, this will be on showtime. HBO are not touching Bernard again with a barge pole and Pascal is not a big enough name.
HBO pays very little for these type of PPVs, the promoters take the risk. I would rather see this on PPV rather then use up Showtime/HBO budget. Ideally this would go on regular cable but its not gonna happen. Showtime wants to run that excellent bantamweight card on that same date, I would rather have both on the same day with one PPV instead of losing a card because of lack of money.
I wish I could get my time back from watching Hopkin's boring fights... punch, punch to the side of the head, hold, smile punch, punch to the side of the head, hold, smile punch, punch to the side of the head, hold, smile
How many sales for Pavlik-Hopkins? After what BHOP did to Pavlik, both networks think he will do the same to Pascal, and so do I.
Showtime are looking to schedule the bantamweight tournament for the same date so I'm not too sure of the likelihood of them buying Pascal-Hopkins.
