    PPV makes money but it is killing the general appeal of boxing.

    Would boycotting it get rid of it?

    the problem is PPV fights simply arent what they should be anymore

    put a great fighter against a sub par opponent put a few ****ty names on an undercard and wallah they want to PPV that ****? nahhhh

    ppv should be for MEGAFIGHTS, thus giving both fighters even more incentive to face the tough opposition, for all the glitters gold and glory.

    a boycott works but you need to make sure people are on bored ? we see them fail way to much nowdays

    Not many PPV guys left.

    UK: Froch (37)

    US: Mayweather (37), Pacquiao (36), Cotto (34), Chavez Jr (29), Alvarez (25)


    4 of those guys are ready for the glue factory

    The last PPV worthy card was Mayweather-Canelo

    i agree, and i feel we are not alone in thinking that as it broke records.

    canelo v cotto would be ppv worthy
