So Margarito/Mosley and JMM/Diaz will be free?

I read this on ESPN that both of these fights are free, and I am very impressed by this move on HBO's part. There is no way this would have been free in any other year, but I am glad they are finally realizing they need to make less PPV's(which should be loaded with great fights), and more big fights that anyone can watch without shelling out 54 dollars.

I'm very happy about this as well! But give it time, HBO and other promotiong companies still have lots of time to stick us with a PPV. Like the Pavlik and Cotto comeback fights (mismatches) are PPV and of course the future JCC Jr. fights..

Two fights I can't wait to see!

I think they are free I cant wait for them to happen.
Go Margarito
Go JMM:D

They should'nt be on PPV.

Margarito-Mosley isn't PPV because nobody would buy it. As great a fight as this very well could be no one cares about Antonio Margarito. It really illuminates for me why Floyd didn't want to fight him. Why fight Margarito for chump change and no movement in the division (at the time)?

Especially because Floyd always had bigger fights lined up, Margarito and Arum were too ignorant to acknowledge that. If Floyd had foughten Margarito instead of Baldomir, he would have made less money, and people would have said what has Margarito really done? Beaten Cintron? After that fight Mayweather got the biggest fight in the history of PPV, then Margarito lost to Paul Williams. We will see after Mayweather comes back what will happen, I think he will face Pacquiao or the winner of Pacman-Hatton should that fight come to be, and after that I could see him fighting the winner of a Cotto-Margarito rematch, or Berto if he beats some quality guys.
