    I must admit, with the quality of private streams now being so high (I'm talking subscription ones for around $10 month) I can't understand why any net savvy person would buy a PPV?

    You can support the fighters I guess but if they are big enough to be on PPV they are already far better off than all of us and in some case multi millionaires so they can do without our dough.

    I hate PPV I think its wrong by principle, you pay a subscription for a tv network they should pay for the fight out of the sub money.

    There's too much greed in sport with people (not just boxing) wanting to earn millions and millions. Same with the film industry.

    I really want to see him fight Cotto again. If Arum can negotiate Margarito through his ban and give him a tuneup to make him look a credible opponent again then a Cotto rematch would be huge. It would bring huge publicity to boxing for all the wrong reasons but it'd make a ton of money, something Arum won't have overlooked. There's a hell of a story to sell, a big hook to bring the punters in and get them ordering the PPV. No matter what Margarito, Cotto or Arum say publicly over the next year about whether it could happen I'm sure it will barring something going wrong, there's just too much potential money to be hoovered up for it not to happen. I think Cotto wins too.

    Yeah,Im stuck within my evolution.Also the last thing I'll ever be accused of being is net savvy,have been playing catch up for what seems forever.Up until 3 years ago,I had never run a stream for a fight.Still rebuilding.PPV is a def drain on the funds and am pretty picky these days,maybe one every two months.I just have never liked watching fights on a desk top.....stuck in the past I suppose.It really is an entirely different world up on a huge flat screen,speakers blaring at full tilt,.....except when Lampley is on,then the mute button becomes essential.Using more and more streams as we can find them.Your right,quality is much better as of late.............BTW anyone with a stream for the Antillon fight on Friday night,please wrap it up,would be a great gift .
