Astronomical Price for Mayweather-Pacquiao Pay-Per-View

     My initial reaction was: "What?!"

     Our cable provider, Dream Satellite TV, just posted on its website and Facebook page that it's going to  sell the event via pay-per-view for Php 2,500 (regular rate) and, for the early bird promo, you have to shell out Php 2,000.

     Last Pacquiao  PPV bout  courtesy of Dream was on  November 2014 against Algieri,  which was pegged at Php650 with the early bird at Php500. I was expecting that Dream was going to merely double the price at the most for this long overdue superfight. Apparently not.  Now, in my Hamlet mode,  my conscience (and wallet) wrestles: To buy or not to buy? Alas, the slings and arrows of precarious fortune!



And now,  for the love of boxing and of Pacquiao, let's get ready to fumbleeeeee (with our wallets)!
