@SuikodenII im not saying overload the undercard but there should be a high level bout on the undercard...best example is the Sergio-jr card..we had rigo dishing out a masterpiece on the opener, then macklin knocking alcine the fukk out, with Martinez-beltran fighting a FOTY candidate before the main event...good undercard booking is needed for this card

Breh...i'ma need some fights for this undercard. Not a bunch of bums...I meant i'll be IN Vegas overpaying at the viewing and they are charging $100 for ppv , you gotta give us more. I don't need Cotto vs GGG, but you better throw some shyt on there we wouldn't pay for anyway like the Khan - Maidana 2.:yeshrug:

So why not give us what we are paying for? Especially considering this will probably be the biggest fight casual fans will ever watch and the whole world would be watching boxing that night, why have a snoozefest until 10:30, 11 when the main event happens? This fight is important for the sport, it should be maximized in my opinion...

No. The Rigo and Martinez fights were not competitive on paper. One followed protocol and the other didn't, simple as that. Macklin/Alcine was a dope match-up that ended up being a quick blow-out.

You are getting the mythical match of the generation and think that an unwatched, overshadowed undercard really means something? Know this, the vast majority of boxing fans can balk all they want, but they WILL cave in and buy this. This is not a "boxing" event. This is an event, period. Records will be broken, and not by boxing fans, it will be by the common public who are only interested in one fight. You would be wasting time and great potential match ups that will get NO replay on HBO or Showtime and be virtually unwatched by the mass public.

Hear me clearly, we, as boxing enthusiasts, are NOT the target audience because a fight of this magnitude will have our support despite fake internet outrage about an undercard being weak. Showcase some deserving guys who never get that HBO/Showtime love and if they show out, will get future TV time...

It's a bad idea to load the undercard. Save it for other dates.

When it comes to undercards theyre pretty stupid.

This is a fight thats gonna be viewed by all of america and its most likely to be another stinker cause floyd is that good.

This the time for Bob and Haymon to put the best matches on the undercard possible, this is a chance to make another star with guaranteed viewership. But they'd rather get the rights fees from hbo :mjlol:

So are you NOT going to pay for it if the undercard is boo boo?

@SuikodenII that's a good point you made. Maybe they shouldn't put high profile matches on the uc, but instead put together some cheap competitive fights (on paper at least). Bob has a lot of fighters in the lower weight divisions, and those fights are never expensive to make either.

Whatever they do, don't load the undercard, it's unnecessary, save it for other dates.................

They dont have to load it, but at the same time, an HBO/showtime Pac/Floyd undercard might be the very last opportunity for certain fights to be made... Like Rigo/SantaCruz for example or Swift vs Master Boxer Algeiri

if floyd must have one of his little nikkas on this card..might as well put bey in since he has a title..against someone who is a threat like shafikov...a brutal KO will take place :demonic:

:scust:


No one wants to see Mikey Bey. :scusthov:

Floyd gotta pay off Julie Lederman just to make these background dancers look good.
