Kelly Pavlik PPV in Feb... rip off?

[BoxingGorilla]

Rubio is as slow as Christmas morning. I think Pavlik will KO him.

[CountryBoy]

Both those guys just came back from the beating of their lives, They are not worthy of a 54.95 PPV, maybe 19.95 with them on the same card.

[Lance Uppercut]

There on PPV not because they want to, but because nobody(HBO or Showtime) would pay to show the fights. Arum either had the choice of not televising them or showing them on a Top Rank produced ppv.

That's f**king hilarious neither network would show them but if they both had won the last fight's this would be an easy 54.95 PPV on HBO. I mean s**t it's not like Kelly PAvlik is the middleweight champion or anything or he's making a second defense of his title's. AAH F**K him he dosen't deserve to be on HBO or Showtime. Maybe Versus could pick this one up.

Rubio was in negotiations to fight Andy Lee prior to Lee's shellacking at the hands of Vera.

He's been flirting with the idea of a Pavlik fight for some time.

If I'm not mistaken, I think Rubio is Pavlik's mandatory.

Have they listed a price ? I thought he was leaning towards David Lopez,think he is # 2?

Something tells me in this shite economy,which will get worse most likely before it gets better,that this is all part of HBO trimming back on shows.May just be the beginning...sadly.

A monthly boxing channel set with a pricetag is sounding better and better.As mentioned......for this one I might understand the 'old school' PPV prices of 19.95 but 50 bucks is just a slap in the face .I expect a signed T-shirt,a sit down brunch with Pav and a free car wash for that

No, they haven't had any official press conference yet, so I have no clue as to the PPV price, or the ticket prices yet. I'm assuming the details will be coming out soon.

I highly doubt the PPV price will be on the high end, because Arum doesn't have to worry about HBO or Showtime taking a cut. I think his Latin Fury cards were like $29.99 or $34.99.

[C-Lo]

I honestly don't think either of the fights are worth watching. If the PPV is more than $25, I'll just chill, go to sleep, and read the articles in the morning.

Did someone just say ''War Jennings''

That was me. I've said it before that I back everyone of my fellow countrymen in fights bar Junior Witter. Always will do.

Is Cotto-Jennings an HBO PPV? Last year HBO made good on their promise of fewer PPVs and I thought that was going to be an ongoing trend with them in the future. You can't just be slapping any old thing up on the wall.

No, this is a Top Rank independent PPV, it has nothing to do with HBO or Showtime. The Cotto fight, and the Pavlik fight are part of the same PPV, they will just be held in 2 different locations, but are part of the same broadcast.

[RozzySean]

There is no way they will make this a 49.95 fight. My best guess is $30, and it's probably worth that. Cotto will likely destroy Jennings, but Pavlik/Rubio could be a very entertaining fight. I would hope they find one more decent fight on the card to round it out.

Well from what I heard, they are going to air two undercard fights, and the Cotto fight from MSG, and then switch over to Youngstown for the Pavilk fight. I heard that Arum wants to try to get Calderon and Juanma for those two other fights.
