    This is one of those fights that there is no way I would pay for. Both guys are well past their prime and just not great fighters anymore.

    You don't have to be a great fighter to put on a great show.

    ex. Mickey Ward
    Harrisment-
    I haven't seen either fight a LONG time, just how far have they dropped?

    Here at the bar we always guaged whether or not to buy the fight based on how many calls we would get throughout the day about if we were showing or not....for the great matches we had the phone ringing non stop...

    For this fight i have had a total of 3 calls....

    Heh, I was about to ask you if you were going to order it at Live, and how much (if any) the charge to get in would be.

    It will be a good fight if El Feroz goes for broke. Otherwise, it will just be like the first fight all over again. He is not going to outbox Mosley.

    This should be a pretty good fight...I will be in Vegas next weekend for it but may not go...Tickets are crazy expensive, plus, we won't be able to go until the fight has begun...

    It says doors open at 6:30 ET, but HBO won't show it unitl 9 ET...is this just undercards fighting that take up so much time? Will the fight really start at 9 ET?

    I was going to say the same thing. If I was forced to chose, I'd go with Vargas.

    $49.95

    Is anyone going to watch this fight? I'll probably just watch on StreamTVNow it's not worth the $50 at the moment.

    I don't see why the result of the rematch will be any different than the first one. Vargas will get pummelled again.
