    Prime times quality is dire, the mccloskey khan ppv was shocking & completely ripped off the 1000's of Irish fans who bought,

    The Mayweather card will bomb mainly because casual fans aren't gonna be interested, sky won't promote the fight one bit,

    £15 is a joke for not having a Brit in the main event. Half that and I would think about it.

    HBO are showing both, so I fully expect Primetime to.

    Whether a British fighter is there or not makes no difference to me. I'm a fan of boxing foremost, my favourite fighters aren't British and if a British fighter ever fought one of them I'd cheer for them over the Brit.

    Having said that, there won't be an empty void in my life if I don't spend £15 at 4am to watch Mayweather dance around an outclassed opponent, Morales to probably get beaten up, and Alvarez to stramroller a handpicked punching bag because they don't want to put him in with any top guys yet. Ergo, the parasitic ****s at Primetime can suck my ****ing dick, I'll watch it on youtube.

    i dont condone illegal signal stealing but how does more people watching fights kill boxing?

    plus the more people boycotting mayweather/pac worthless ppv's the better chance of them facing each other, right now they're fighting everyone and anyone who isnt one another because they know people will shell out the cash to watch them 'fight'

    @Relentless - my reply to you from the other thread (that thread got closed for whatever reason)

    Yes I would.

    I'm not 'for Boxing being on ppv'.

    So by not paying, you're saying I should wait till the next morning to hear the results? Or attempt to find a dodgy stream which there's no guarantee of?

    That's his opinion, I don't really care. I don't like Floyd but I love watching him, and I like Ortiz, and even though he'll get pasted, most likely, I'm still interested.

    Morales fighting Matthysse. How can you not be interested? If Morales even pulled out a win, that would be epic, and after his fight with Maidana, I hope for it to be a good fight.

    Alvarez fighting Gomez. I like Alvarez, so even the more reason to buy it.

    Lopez-Vargas. These guy's are the new crop of 140, and I really want to see who will come out on top. Actually looking forward to it, seeing as I haven't seen much of them.

    How are you going to watch it? On a stream? Also, can you tell me where I'm justifying Boxing to be on a PPV Platform in the long term?

    You paid for rubbish like Haye-Klitschko, yet you wouldn't pay for this. Half of the reasons people have put on threads such as "not worth £15" is rubbish.

    I don't know what you classify as a PPV Card then, because you're not going to get better than that anytime soon.
