That's the part of this PPV that has always left me like since the announcement.This is the biggest stage boxing has had in a decade and they trot out that garbage for an undercard.I love loma but he'll nvr be a ppv star..Doesn't speak English and fights at too low of a weight. HBO/Top Rank have a star in waiting in Terrance Crawford but they let him rot on HBO a couple weeks ago on the Lucas/Prov UC .TCraw would be an instant hit with casual nikkas but HBO let that shyt go wasted.
HBO has been trying to build GGG into becoming a boxing star and this was the perfect platform to do it. He knocks everyone out + he's white + his broken English game is legendary ,why not showcase him (probably bc of arum but that's a separate issue)
As far as Showtime/Haymon is concerned wouldn't showing Khan obliterate Algieri on last nights undercard do a lot more to promote a possible Khan/Floyd fight than having Amir fight on a Friday night on Spike after re-runs of cops?
This shyt was just a pathetic cashgrab and boxing got fukked over in the end.
Could you extrapolate for a casual breh ?I don't. I always called em for what they were. I just feel bad for Manny for using excuses. You could tell that was not his plan. Too bad he does whatever Arum said and for Arum to say he has a 50 mil check for Manny ready to cash in,. that's just sad and it makes me angry[...]
Breh if Ali or SRL two of the greatest to ever do it fought today nikkas would call them runners all over twitter and shyt. This the reason the coli is the only place I come to talk boxing.
Paid for it cuz "boxing is deeper than stanning" @patscorpio
Could you extrapolate for a casual breh ?
Also @Yuzo called it with Mayweather's jab having Manny worried if he had to defend a jab or jab> right coming due to the way Floyd threw the jab. Kept that nikka tentative all night.
That shyt wasn't worth 100.
how you gonna stan a man but not support him ? Stop tryin g to rationalize your actions.
Then your opinioin don't matter
You saw 2-6 rds max
Come get ya mans brehs
@patscorpio @TheNig
He got fustrated but kept coming. I believe the 4th round was his best.

But yo..the atmosphere seemed shyt for a big event..noticed all the old white cats in front rows..
