    Doesn't sky cost like hundreds of euros/year?

    Not to mention you guys also have to pay a buttload of money for The BBC, etc...

    Well sky or virgin(cable networks) charge a monthly rate depending on the number of channels you have from £20 up.
    The bbc is a one off license fee i think costs roughly £12 a month.
    But still better than having to pay an extra £15 on top for the ppv.

    I'm a fan but I'm not going to pay that kind of Money. More on principal though. The thought of somebody like Bob Arum making a fortune out of warriors putting their health at risk annoys me. But then to see him corrupt the industry like Top Rank do, bothers me even more. I understand other people here may not share the same principals as me. I would ask you to respect my views though. For every monopoly like Top Rank, or should I say Oligopoly, (like Top Rank, Golden Boy, Universum, Warren etc) their are hundreds of legitimate boxers who will never get a chance to climb the rankings based on merit. Because these guys are killing boxing slowly but surely. PPV is a disgrace. The boxers deserve their money but not the corrupt leeches who profit from the outcome.
