    But, a sucker is born every minute. I would assume non-fight fan regulars will pay for this. This is who Floyd flams all the time.

    if it had some cool stuff on the undercard I might depending on how much beer I have drunk :S, it would have to look better than the canelo cotto undercard though(it had rigondeaux and vargas v miura), so really I would buy the undercard and the main event would be a weird and funny sideshow... but badou jack and gervonta davis isnt enough for me to buy it and considering cotto v kamegi will be on normal hbo then the chances of me buying it are very low

    Definitely not paying for it. Seems like deluded MMA fans will be where the money is made and gullible casuals believing Floyd when he says it's going to be a 'toe to toe' battle.

    Floyd never goes into a toe to toe battle and very rarely knocks out anyone.

    We'll get it at my Dad's. No way to stream it with the slow internet there as it's a rural area and it'll be THE event to get. I teach high school so my 11th grade shits will be all about it im sure. I'll have to watch to then politely tell them, "I told you so." (School starts back up in 2 weeks...)

    Well sky have won the contract to show it.
    Eddie has already said that Floyd wants them to charge £100 PPV in the UK but Eddie has said there is no way it'll be that much and whilst Sky want to charge £30 he can't see it being any more than £20.

    Does Eddie really have a say? Does he really care?

    No he doesn't have a say, he said something like 'sky will want it to be £30 but it won't be that much that isn't their price point, it will stay at £20' he did say that he doesn't actually have say in it.

    found the quote, I wasn't

    “Mayweather wants the price to be £100.”

    But Hearn doesn’t believe the price will be above the normal price for a PPV.

    “The price will be within the same realms as it always has. I don’t set the price, but my gut feeling is £19.95.

    “If it went to £24.95… I can’t see it, it wouldn’t be my decision. Sky won’t want to go beyond £19.95. That is their price point.”
    I thought he said Sky wanted £30
