    Now that Youtube has a PPV feature, all the promoters need to start using it.

    It's the best way bring life back into boxing again and reach a difference kind of audience that a TV broadcast couldn't. It's also a good way to get the new generation of fans to get into boxing.

    Streams are becoming more prevalent and promoters can't keep shutting them down. It doesn't work. Compaines tried it with music and movies and they couldn't stop it with more resources. They might as well take advantage of it.

    Put big fights on Youtube PPV, charge a discounted price...maybe like $19.99 - $29.99 for a big fight events and $9.99 for small events. I wouldn't mind paying for it.

    They would never charge that little. TopRank did online ppv for pac-JMM 3 and the price was the same as the regular ppv.

    Edit: It's a good idea though.

    Won't happen, with an HDMI cable you can hook your PC/Laptop up to a TV and there would be no difference than if you ordered it from your cable company. Maybe if they did it for Mobile devices on the new 4g LTE ****.
