I am ordering the marg vs pac ppv this saturday. anyone else planning on ordering it?
nope, lackluster undercard with a couple decent names sprinkled in there, and a ridiculous main event, i'll watch this on a stream...if thatQuote:

Y do you say lackluster undercard? Thats wat im really looking forword too. Mike Jones, Brandon Rios, and Rigondeaux are on thereQuote:

I said I wouldn't order it, as a protest to Margarito getting a payday. But last weekends fights got me really pumped up and feeling the boxing vibe. Soooooooooo................I'll probably order it and have a few friends over. I'm surprised at how many casual fans have brought this fight up to me. Good for boxing.
As an aside, the evening will start with frustration of trying to keep a HayeForce stream going as it isn't being broadcast here at all.
I'd love to pay extra for it, but it's free over here. So no.
Nope. I will catch this on a stream as well.

Harrison ;DQuote:

i usually only order ppv's if there is a strong undercard. although there are big names on this undercard, the fights are mostly mismatches.
So, you Frank Warren? :)Quote:

And I'm forced to take care of my father who is passing. So anyway I can watch it online? I know this fight will reach $80-90 with all of Comcasts fees and the extra for HD and all the crap. Just want to watch it at home but the money is to tight. Any ideas? Thank you kindly
Dude, it will be in any boxing forum. I would try looking in Pacquiao website first (Pacland).Quote:

Wow, not even Pacquiao's countrymen are buying his fights to support him? Hell even Haye's fellow Englishmen are buying that crap fight with Harrison to support him and put money in his pockets.Quote:

I'm buying the fight buddy. ;) I can't break the tradition.
Me & a couple of mates are gonna chip in. Its the only way I could justify spending that kind of money.
Plus I don't have Sky ;D
I actually disagree with you a bit there. To me, every one of the fights on the card have clear favorites, but aren't mismatches. Cordoba v. Rigondeaux is not a mismatch at least on paper. Cordoba has only lost twice: once in a fight of the year against Dunne and once against Poonsawat. Not bad losses and Cordoba makes for entertaining fights for the most part. Certainly, Rigondeaux should win, but when won't he go into a fight not favored? Mike Jones is in the toughest fight of his career. Of course, he likely will win too, but it is a step up in competition. And Brandon Rios, although a scumbag, is never in a dull fight. Pacquiao is the in the main event against a much bigger opponent.Quote:

Thanks guys...yha times are tough. I'm not having any ease finding this stream stuff and I guess possibly cause I always order PPV. I'm leaning on ordering it...although I'm not a Pac fan, well what would be better for my father to watch on his deathbed? Nothing lol I think a Pac beat down would be a great last boxing match if it turns out to be that. If anyone has a stream hopefully it's posted on the site.
