Why is Pacman vs Marg on Sky Sports and not Sky Box Office

any clues??

 

They always do that, unless the fighters are popular in the UK. Pac is well known here, but the average dude doesn't really give a **** about him, and Margarito isn't even well known here. No one would buy the ppv.

Maybe if you get these dudes on loose women and Alan Carr, then people might give a ****

 

wonder this myself...interested to see why

 

No idea.

It should have been bundled with Haye-Harrison. It would have only helped the PPV numbers.

Silly move, IMO.

 

Cause not a single casual fan would pay for it? Plus, it's on so late after Haye-Harrison, what would be the point?

The whole reason for featuring Pac is to build interest in a Mayweather fight if it happens.

 

i think its good it aint on ppv :blurp

 

I forgot it was on the same night as Haye/Harrison. In that case yeah they could have bundled it together I guess.

 

Because that fight isnt worth 2 quid - anyone who would buy a ppv for that is an ignorant ****in imbecile. The cheat shouldnt be allowed to box again, even so, he is out of his league and will be another punchbag.

 

Does it start early morning?

 

Because putting Pac-Marg on the PPV would probably generate another £45 to the pot. Its easy to forget when you spend time on a boxing forum but not that many people stay up until 5am to watch fights involving non-Brits.

Its a **** in the ocean where Haye-Harrison is concerned.

 

I'm not paying for Haye vs Harrison now.

 

yeh I can't remember sky every putting a US card on sky sports the same night as a UK ppv.

 

same here.

 

Yeah, but £45 is £45. There are alot of people against buying the Haye/Harrison PPV, but I'm sure if it was bundled in with the Pacquiao/Marg fight as well they would see some value in purchasing it even just for the quantity they would be getting for £15.

They bundled in De La Hoya/Pac with the Khan/***an card and I know for a fact people bought that PPV because they perceived they were getting a good few hours entertainment for their money rather than the usual one fight card.

The only reason I can think this isn't being bundled in together is that Hayemaker are getting a percentage share of the PPV buys for the Haye/Audley fight which HBO/Top Rank would no doubt cut into if the Pac/Marg was shown on PPV.

 

yes or perhaps there is a top rank would charge a higher fee if it was PPV
