:dkufdup: remember Hopkins vs Hakkar at the Spectrum on HBO? arena wasnt even half full. if HBO can put that bullshyt on.....:manny: thats why I say its not all HBO like TR would like you to believe. TR is trying to intentionally shelve dude.


Touche, fam. Touche. What I mean is, Hopkins and Ward are American, so its easier to sell them to an American audience, because they can promote in English.

Rigo is Cuban, not an overly exciting fighter to watch, and cant speak well. He is very hard to sell to an American audience. Simply put, its much easier to find people to spend $100, $200, $500 to watch BHop or Ward fight, then Rigo. Thats my point.

I do think Top Rank isnt trying hard at all to sell Rigo, but he doesnt make it easy either.

Can GGG speak English? Nope. But he is 27-0 with 24 KOs, has knocked out every opponent put in front of him on American TV, and every opponent who has stepped in the ring with him since 2009.

But make no mistake. The hype train is behind GGG, and not Rigo. Another thing against Rigo.
