    Economics 101. Stop buying them and the prices will come down fast.

    I don't think people are going to stop buying the bullcrap PPV's just cos' the promoters are so good at hyping up absolute crap especially to the newcomers in boxing.

    I could also see a few more lower key boxing matches going along with the UFC/MMA attatched to it to make people think it's worthy of a PPV, a la Roy Jones Jr v Omar Sheika last weekend. Although I'm not sure if that was PPV or not I think more promoters may try to jump on the bandwagon and make it so.

    The amount of newcomers/novices in boxing will always outnumber the amount of hardcores who know better by a very long margin, so, the promoters can do pretty much all they like. I'm sure they don't mind losing out on the die hard fans as long as they make their dollar, gotta love 'em

    Amir Khan would be a bigger star if he stayed on terrestrial channel free to viewers because he would have built a bigger fan base and then when he was actually any good he could have moved to ppv like Hamed and Hatton did.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    JC Jr. has a lot of followers. Imo he's ready for the top dogs. I wanna see him against guys like Sergio Mora, Sergio Martinez, or Sergei Dzindziruk.

    Heck... Anybody with "Serg" on his name will do just fine.
