To be honest ive always been rather confused as to how the channel actually makes money in terms of PPV buys if it is attempting to sell fights on a weekly basis, most of which will be un-appealing to your average boxing fan yet alone your boxing hardcore fan per say.
Would it not be more of a viable option for HBO to bundle 3-4 "big" fights onto a card per month and sell that as a "mega event" kind of in the way UFC or WWE will sell its PPVs.
People arent going to pay 30+ dollars to see de la hoya-forbes. I follow the sport with a passion though I still wouldnt touch that with a bargepoll!!!
