    Edgar vs BJ rematch
    Florian vs Maynard
    Couture vs Toney
    Lauzon vs TBA

    I'm interested in this.

    For UFC PPV'S and Big Boxing fights yes...Usually around 40-50 bucks.

    To be honest mate it dont bother me as im just grateful oz has caught on to MMA..

    I been a fan since i was 16(2002) and back then it was easier to your hands on a grenade then it was one measley tape of pride/ufc etc.

    I'm surprised at that. I thought it was on PPV in the US.

    I don't see it. The rematch isn't going to be THAT great, Maynard may just wrestle his way to a win, Couture/Toney is a freakshow joke. I could see if you're from the east coast and are really into local guys, but me, I'm not that into this card.

    Penn is gonna be aggressive as hell in this rematch, i feel the reason he "didnt really try" was because he felt he was winning which is understandable, it was a close fight.

    I usually only buy Boxing PPV's but I'm most intrigued about Machida-Shogun 2 out of the near future fights.

    Not so much IMO. Toney-Couture is a joke, Penn-Edgar I wasnt very entertaining, Maynard's fights always suck.

    Yea but i'd LOVE to watch James get choked the **** out by Captain America. James talks a big game and I won't detract from his boxing career but he sat there claiming that he put Arlovski on his ass and couldn't keep him off of him and all that crap when he never trained with Andre.Then that report conveniently went away.

    Well not free but not PPV. The Kky sports package is about £35 a month and ESPN (witch shows the UFC) is £9. The only time we pay PPV if it's a Brit going for a world title in boxing. Even at that we get some non PPV. Hatton is always PPV, and now so is Haye. khan was but couldn't sell and parted from Sky. His next fight is likely to be on terrestrial TV. It would be hard to sell over here IMO cos it always starts at 3am.
