Really? I thought 15 quid to watch cocky Khan get knocked the fuck out in under a minute presented fantastic value for money

(No I didn't buy it lol)

AGREE but sadly i missed it. but i heard all the lovely comments the next day.

RJJ vs Tarver II....horrid, I pay 40 some dollars to see Tarver get his ass kicked and Roy drops his fucking hands....bastard!

agreed

Best £15 i spent this year

We dont buy HBO PPVs in britain and 9 times out of 10 get them for free, but a few notable sky box office conjobs include....


Naseem Hameds comeback fight - horrible just horrible

Lennox Lewis-Andrew Golota - Golota was always only gonna get a round or two in.

Mike Tyson-Lou Saverese - whoever thought up this mismatch deserves shooting

Nicolay Valuev vs Evander Holyfield is on PPV......any takers

We have a winner for a fight that hasn't happened yet, that take the cake. When slow, weak and old MEETS old, tall, hairy and goofy.

I can see Holyfield bouncing on his toes once in a while as if he could move around the ring, and Valuev pumping that slow puff jab.

I have to say I would probably throw up if I had to tie up with that guy (Valuev). He just looks like he smells really bad.

Yes the Along Came Polly basketball scene comes to mind.

This idea popped in my head when I created the thread on about Cotto-Jennings and Pavlik-Rubio

Next would have to be EVERY SINGLE JCC Jr fight.

Gatti-Mayweather - definately not PPV worthy, and I am #1 Gatti fan! (still bought it)

I pay for cable internet and I watch just about every PPV, but not one time have I paid for it other then my regular internet bill, yea it's always a live stream and the quality is not hdtv, I watched manny beat Oscar last week and watched the re-broadcast yesterday. I seen the same thing I did on live stream, a PPV that was not worth 10% of the actual cost. You can keep throwing your money at all these garbage pay per views or you can do what I do, find a stream and watch it for free. I grew up watching boxing on free tv, that's what made me a boxing fan and all the fights on ppv are one of the reasons for the downfall of boxing. Their used to be a whole gang of us watching the fights on a Saturday afternoon. Now I don't have one friend interested in boxing. Regular Tv is what brought the boxers into your living room every weekend and the best were known by everyone. It sure isn't like that anymore.

sorry to ramble, I can't name the worst ppv but there have been a lot of them.

Tyson-Sanders exhibition. I cant believe I actually paid to see that. The other fights were complete garbage too.

Sure I'll watch it, for free, then if it's worth seeing in better quality I'll watch it again on the re-broadcast. You guys have to stop paying for the garbage they feed us, there is always a live stream on the internet. Just stay away from that justin.tv, they have a chat box in there and they always cut off the show before the actual ppv fight comes on.

Agreed altho ironically it ended up being money well spent purely because of Frank Warren's face after the 'fight'

I'd drop this one from the list, because Gatti-Ruelas was on the undercard, and that won Fight of the Year.

ODLH vs Fraud G@yweather Jr.

PacMan showed how a real pound 4 pound champion beats up on an old man.

Roy's hands weren't down when that shot landed.
