If they were in the $10-15 range instead of $25 I'd buy this.  So many organizations are missing their price market.

@Kalibo, have only picked the first two, but if you most know I have Costa and Hawkey both by TKO and will pick the next 11 before lock :)

I think willing to pay $15 but not $25 places me above 99.9% of MMA fans in buying online South African PPV's.  I'd consider that more hoping their organization recognizes that, more than a complaint.

I have a feeling I'm picking to many decisions and tkos.  Very few of both last time around.

@wolf, they are on the promoter's website.  I'm guessing most of us checked it out.

Mikixi is heavy handed and has a very good chance.  I expect Hassn to counterstrike.
