    Absolutly zero, zip, zilch, nothing.

    ****in' a right. You are spot on. I have actually paid for only 1 PPV in my life and will never pay for another one. But I also never miss the ones that i want to see. PPV sports are a scam and it looks like most people fall for it, ha ha. The **** should be on network TV and the advertisers foot the bill. Most of the fighters on PPV are severely overpaid for the product that they deliver and that is the main problem. Not to mention that **** like PPV and other shady **** has tarnished boxing forever. I don't pay to watch the baseball, football, or basketball. Why should I pay to watch boxing or MMA ?

    Everyone should boycott these scams. Maybe Floyd don't need Pac and Pac don't need Floyd. But they all need us, PPV or not.

    Or you can plop down your hard earned money so that Floyd can go buy some shiny trinket or new car that will get repossessed anyway, ha ha ha !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    This is very true. 50-70 for a PPV is absolutely ridiculous.

    You really don't think they'll jack up the price on this? More than half of the people in the poll said they'd pay more than that for the fight. The demand for this fight is huge, therefore they'll charge more.

    I'm going with the current standard rate, 55 to 65. Anyway everyone involved in this fight will profit through sheer volume, 3 million ppv buys or more.

    $55 is the highest price I've ever come across for a PPV. I think that was for De La Hoya - Mayweather. I doubt they'd exceded that here.. and if you pay more than that, quite honestly, I think you're a moron.

    They can kiss my ass anyway !!! If my friends or I can't hack it on cable, sat, or the net. I'll pay $3.50 for net access. And that goes for server costs and the crooks won't even see a penny of it. Or of course, I can watch it for free the next week on HBO. It is curious to me why a fight costs $60 this week is worth nothing next week. Kinda says something, don't it ?

    That's a little strong. You have to consider that for some people that price is not that bad. I've dropped more than that on a single cigar, so spending $65 on a fight really won't hurt me.
