mayweather v ortiz pay per view in the UK?

[erics44]

yep

i really hope people dont pay it

[Wallace]

In all honesty I probably will.

It has a great undercard and even if you consider the main fight is a mismatch £15 is not much for seeing such a great card. Obviously I would prefer it to be free but for big fights such as this that's no longer the case. What's it costing in America, $40/$50? so I still think we are getting it cheap.

My only regret is that Sky are not covering it as I prefer their commentators to Primetime.

[erics44]

its not that good

dont do it man, the more people pay for it in britain the more british people will have to pay for boxing cards that dont involve british boxers

[Wallace]

Sorry, I think we disagree on this.

I'd rather pay to watch elite fighters from anywhere than pay for a card just because it featured a British fighter. Think of some of the Khan PPV's and tell me they were value for money. At least with this fight we are watching (arguably) the No. 1 P4P fighter in the world.

Nationality doesn't come into it for me. If I think it's a good fight or card I'll pay for it because that's just the way it is and it's not going to change. Would you rather have Mayweather free and pay for Fury vs Chisora

[Fenster]

This is the worst thing about the Khan/Sky/Golden Boy fall out. It would have been free on Sky.

It wont do good numbers at 4am UK time. Plus it wont have Sky and their media outlets promoting it, so will go pretty much unnoticed over here. But the primetime mob have already done dodgy PPVs so are clearly not bothered by that. At least it's avialable for the hardcores I guess.

Floyd-vs-most guys is a mismatch. At least Ortiz is young and can bang a bit. Good fight.

i got virgin media so not on there i dont think anyway? aint gonna pay to watch on my computer

yes you would rather pay for it but think about the bigger picture and the precedences that it will set

lets nip it in the bud

fury chisora was free wasnt it?

£14.95 for, seriously, a horrendous quality broadbcast. They don't even have a HD option.

Primetime is shit.

I'll be streaming this to my tv - the quality will be exactly the same.

[Mark TKO]

no won't be paying again

thats three this year not paid for
