Coming from you, that's a compliment
Probably will help him out. It's better to come on and say "Look, I'm a friend of Ozzy, he's a great guy and does care what customers think. I'm sure the input from AZ will not go unnoticed in the next set of matches".
That would help him, but bickering and defending some statements he regretted saying is not the way to help your friend.
Believe me, we all understand defending a buddy. But if I say something regretful (which is a daily occurance) I pretty much expect my friends to disappear!
Or, Just have Justin handle the PR. Everybody's afraid to piss him off.
To me, the youtube video of him doing a silly dance routine with Wu and the foppish hairstyles leave an impression of softness and immaturity.
The dance video is seven years old, though. I'm sure he's matured since then, but Shane's harder than a coffin nail... I still think he's too strong for Ko in a long race.
LOL, good work. Let's give him benefit of doubt and hope he is not making same boo boo like Scoot Adams (Dilbert creator)
Busty is fearless, he will take on anyone, even challengers and young upstarts
There was this Filipino upstart Cocoy Villafuerte who upset Efren and Alex. Busty went to Cocoy's hometown and thrashed him
Cocoy is making a name for himself scalping big names. Recently he scalped ex 10b World Champ Huiji See giving weight 
My answers in bold above. The bottom line is they only get 200 fans paying to watch right now, and they break even. Time to try something new. And the 200 are going to pay and watch anyway, all the huffing and puffing is just for show to try to get your preferences.
Maybe time for long format as a business model has not come yet. It will come.
Look at cousin cue sport,snooker-they play for days and days and it is viable even thrre are many times more fans and players in pool than in snooker. Also cricket which goes on for day/ days and fans hundreds of dollars PPV outside India. But then again cricket is a religion in Indian continent

A single gambling match between two people goes on for days and days? Or a tournament with numerous people? Lets make sure we don't compare apples and oranges here.
And how long do you propose they keep at the losing long race formula before trying something new? They have been doing it for quite a few years now with no improvement in the number of viewers and not making any money. Just how many more years should they keep doing it like that without making money or gaining customers? Would you keep doing the same thing for years and years if you saw no improvement in your business and were not making any money or would you change something up before decades passed?
And for the record, I like a multiple day pool match. I personally think you will get more viewers and make more money if you allow people to pay by the day and not just the whole event for those people that can't watch the whole thing and won't pay full price for partial benefit (which is not a new concept and some are already doing), and most importantly you make it a best of x number of shorter sets instead of one long race so that it has excitement the whole way through. Another benefit by having a best of x number of shorter sets is that people that can only watch one of the three days for example are going to be more likely to buy it because each individual race means something. Many people don't want to buy only a partial section of a continuous event. Like who would pay to watch one quarter of a football game? But you might pay to watch one game of a world series even if you couldn't watch the whole series.

Does anybody know if this match will be available to viewers in Taiwan/ Asia?
Should be. I can get PPV matches shown on audiovideoweb without a vpn and ones shown on Ustream with a VPN from China.
Got all TAR matches no problem.
2 out 3 races to 21 would be great, one set to 21 means little IMO. I do think Shane is 6/5 money line favorite and I will give 10-1 that the match is closer then Shane playing that Greek dude.

I'll take that bet Lenny. My 30 to your 300. Ko must 10 for you to win.
If you do the math the number is 9 and not 10.
Taiwan has/had a VERY different attitude about young straight guys looking a bit limp wristed. For a while at least it was all the rage.
That's a good move, if you can get away with it.:shocked2:
If by available, you mean they can buy the ppv, then more than likely yes, but it will be probably start in the early morning on a weekday in Taiwan, so I doubt there will be many viewers. CSI might want to think about running it a second time after it finishes for the international market.
Ahh...I hope the Asian market signs up in droves and that the matchup sparks enough interest for a real match down the road between svb/ ko.
That's funny I know Ozzy have had a few conversations and I learned that the only right opinion is his ,, and the only thing he cares about is the bottom line,, in fact he all but told me that
