    PPV is alright if you can get a few mates together. Pretty **** deal if only one person is paying though

    i reckon it could be interesting for 5 or 6 rounds, Ortiz was a beast against Berto and proved alot of doubters wrong, if he brings that mentality and will to win could be a good fight. Ortiz has knocked down every opponent hes fought, if he puts mayweather down that'll be enough for me:thumbsup

    Death, taxes, and Mayweather toying with his opponent for a dull UD.

    No, I don't think so, but it is illegal for the person to be streaming them in the first place in most cases. As I understand it.

    Im not buying of Primetime until they sort the quality of their productions out.

    I'm expecting an easy UD win for Mayweather anyway so think ill skip this one

    I'd pay the £15 if it was on at a reasonable time, but not when I have to stay up til 4 am for it. Primetime's coverage is **** aswell, and we'd be getting it free on Sky if they weren't around.

    i honestly would nt have a problem with payin to watch any of those fighters for around £15-£20 aslong as i get good coverage and a knowledgable team pressenting, i dont pay for skysports anymore as they keep puttin the costs up and all on the back of premership football which has been a 2 horse race for the past decade is fukin borin. i would gladaly pay for boxing as its a favourite of mine and love the fact primetime etc are givin us access to more marquee fights
