    Well you've been wrong for years.

    No chance in hell could boxing make more money on network television that it could on pay per view. A promoter receives at least $20 dollars per pay per view buy. So even if they only do 100,000 you're still looking at a minimum $4million.

    Boxing has damaged its pay per view business by running bad events and a constant failure to make new stars but to claim network television is the solution is absurd.

    Wow, which century was that?

    Its not like ppl in Poland cant afford to pay for this fight, its just that Ppl dont care that much about the fight, to pay for it. Adamek isnt a national hero in Poland, he doesnt live there, he's rarely on tv. He's one of the many better-known spotsmen and thats it.

    This dude Dio is ignorant or just talkin about 80s when really was bad, but then there were no grapefruits, maybe form our comunism friend Cuba

    The point is I just dont want polish emigres in USA that are their for about 20 years with no visits to Poland during that period, to talk about my country, just realy feel they have no right to do so.They should not vote, because they dont live in my country.And they are taling bull**** about it.Poland is modern european country and is still developing.Faster slower but direction is set.

    I dont want to listen bul**** , so please dont talk **** about your motherland.

    Polish youth during studies meet colegues from all around the word , participate in scholarships etc, they are prepared to work in high demanding industries such as high tech finance , not just modeling pierogies and in constructio business


    **** , sorry but thi bro Dio with its bull**** about grapefruits and polish poverty really made me angry!!!!!!!!What a moron

    People who are saying "Just pay Adamek, he deserves it" need to realize this: it's the 1st PPV sports event in Poland EVER. Most people won't even know how this **** works and many others will refuse to pay for something that was always free. Adamek would probably get much more money if they just settled for commercials with no PPV - millions of people would have watched.

    The whole PPV idea is ******ed. Boxing is the most healthy in Germany now where there is no PPV, it is the cancer killing the sport. I hope this PPV sells so badly it'll make them drop the idea of Polish PPV once and for all.

    I thought they put the McBride fight on pay per view to test the system?
