I'm a big boxing fan put coughing up that much $$ for a PPV event sucks. I think the only PPV I'd be willing to drop money for will be Paquaio vs Mayweather, hopefully that will happen sometime in 2012.

I agree, I'm just following on ESPN chat they have. I wish I had more boxing fans so we could pitch in.

I used to think Pacquiao/Mayweather would be a good fight, but after watching Manny get his *** whipped by Marquez last week (and win a BS decision), I think Floyd wins easily.

I am too actually. I haven't been into boxing for too long just when a friend introduced me to it and have been hooked since. I even participate in some amateur boxing, wish this sport wasn't on its last string, hopefully a Paquiao vs Mayweather match up can generate some more hype for this sport. UFC is even dying down a bit also, but I personally have loved boxing alot more than MMA.

I've always thought Money would whip Pac anyways. Mayweather is the best counter puncher and he would eat Pacquiao's aggressive style alive.

Uhh Floyd's last match was won by him by a cheap shot that had tons of controversy, I think Otriz coulda stuck it out for alot longer.

Re: Anyone watching Cotto/Margarito?

I've become a big boxing fan. Never even followed it but watch the Pacqqiuo/ De La Hoya fight replay the week after and was hooked. Can't get enough of it. Have now bought 3 ppv's. You have to be into boxing to appreciate the undercard. There are some really good fights. ESPN2, Showtime, HBO, Top Rank Live(on FSN/CSN), and soon to be NBC Sports Net in January. There's boxing to be found everywhere. Heck EpixHD.com has decent European fights as well. I wish I could explain why I love boxing but I can't. Just grew up a generation or two too late.

Re: Anyone watching Cotto/Margarito?

I know why you love it; it's because it's called the sweet science. And it is indeed a science. The way you have to punch, hold hands, hide your chin behind your shoulder, etc.

I love boxing too more than mma, but UFC does a way better job of putting together fight cards.
