Sorry, but as a purist and moron I dished the $49.95 for this PPV, but Pac aint worth it to me, I bought it for my passion for the sport but not for the fighter... People can clown Floyd all they want but he was worth more than Pac...

How so? Pacquaio is one of the most exciting fighters I've ever seen. Best offensive fighter right now, and always a great fighter.
I cant be the only one who feels that way
Taeth,
I think its the magnitude of his fights... I felt like he was always #2 to Floyd and I think they should have priced his 1st fight as PFP #1 a little better, cause if Diaz beats him the scrutiny will be fierce moving up in weight or not
PBF, imo, the best P4P fighter since the turn of the millenium if not longer.
The Pacman is a fantastic fighter but few can achieve greatness like floyd.![]()
I agree with you 100%
I wasn't able to order the fight because I am 50 bucks overdue and it kept rejecting my order. Still, I was ordering because I thought Pac might get sent back down in weight not because he is a joy to watch.
I thought Marquez beat him the second time. (and the first time)
hahaha. why is game so anti-pac?
After every Pacquaio fight this is what usually happens. I've learned to adjust to these Pac-haters.
After Mayweather's retirement, Pac is p4p#1. FACT.
He won over Marquez, with a knockdown....FACT.
He castigated Morales into retirement. FACT.
He dominated Barrera after Barrera won over Naz. FACT.
He battered DIAZ, the title holder of the WBC lightweight belt. FACT.
Pac hasn't ducked anyone. FACT.
Guzman is complaining coz he wasn't given chance to fight Pac. Was that Pac's fault? Was it the fault of Pac that Joan was still a nobody during that time compared to Morales, Barrera and MArquez and therefore, it would not be that challenging and lucrative to fight him?
Let's appeal to FACTS not on emotions and what you think Guys!
Argumentum ad Misericordiam is not a valid argument in boxing!

IMO, as I've stated before, It doesn't matter if there is one star it takes good matchmaking for a fight to be worth PPV, nobody is worth it on their own. I know ODLH could sell a ton of PPVs fighting pretty much anyone really, but I'm not gonna be one of those people.
PAC (like any other boxer) is not worth the PPV by themselves, and Diaz was such an obvious mismatch, I elected not to pay for it.
PAC vs. Erik Morales II, now that was worth PPV.
So I kind of agree with you JT, I just think our logic of coming to that conclusion is different.
For me for a PPV to be worth it (speaking only of the main event of course) it requires
1) Great Matchmaking
2) A lot at stake
3) Two fighters that have a chance at winning.
In this case this PPV was clearly set up to give PAC a lightweight belt. And while it is a nice thing for PAC and will look good on his resume it should have been a WCB event not PPV.
For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
How much are most PPV's are they normally cheaper?
$49.95 sounds like a hell of a lot, it cost me £7.99 per month to get Setanta, about $15 and that's for the entire month and they have the UFC.
I think you guys get jobbed on the price really, no way would be 50$ around £25 just to watch a fight, I'd rather Sopcast it for nothing to watch it live and download a perfect copy the next day.
You#re throwing your money down the toilet imo
Thats what I was getting at Sheep but you are the more elquoent one here... I guess besides the JMM fight his other fights IMO were not paperview worthy because of who he was fighting. The faded Mexican stars the past few year Barrera2 Morales3 ... I mean I know I have to accept Pac as #1 but I wanted to be eased into it a little better than $49.95 thats all. Pac was exciting and he dominated thats all you can really ask for
As far as entertainment dollar goes, Pac is hard to beat. I like a fighter who can't stand to get hit and not hit back. Pac always struck me as that kind of fighter.
I'm a great admirer of what Floyd does/did in the ring, but I don't discriminate...Pacquiao always brings something exciting to the fight, and to the sport.
He and Floyd are near enough to polar opposites - defense vs. offense. Both have shown they have enough of the other attribute to mention, but for me, it boils down to what you like in a fighter. I like both!!
Floyd worth more? Sorry I'm not a big Pacquiao fan and like Floyd but if you are going to bring 20 friends over, drink beer and barbeque, who would you rather have them watch? The answer is clear it's Pacquiao.
