    Would you pay for a main event if you knew it would be a 1 - 3 round beating/stoppage?

    The reason why I ask is that I hate when one boxer plays around and carries another boxer just to make it a longer fight. I think it is good sportsmanship to give your opponent the best of your abilities and finish them if they are clearly being outclassed.

    So would you care if a long awaited and hyped fight only lasted a couple of rounds?

    When I shell out for a PPV, I want the full twelve rounds of pawing and clinches.

    Mike Tyson, how dare you, I want every penny's worth.

    True story. I went to a local card a few years back... "Do you know where the fighters locker room is?", a skinny guy asks me in the parking lot. "yeah Im in the main event" he says while smoking a cigarette and eating taco-bell.

    I called bull**** and asked why drink pepsi and smoke before a fight? He said hes been running and hitting the bag. :patsch

    Anyways, he really was in the main-event... lasted 60 seconds of a first round TKO.

    Obviously he was there for a quick buck and to make the local hero look good.

    and NO he did not get paid... they held his purse. and NO we didnt get a refund for a crap night of boxing.

    A boxer smoking cigs? Too funny. He's lucky it was only a one round fight, saved him the embarrassment of falling over from exhaustion.
