The last time King had the HBO PPV with Byrd vs Golota, Ruiz vs Oquendo, they did not televise it on HBO the week after like they normally do.

that time it wasnt produced by hbo though

i bet hbo will replay the main even and thats it

i also think the monte fight was added late so maybe thats why its not on the poster

if that fight is added it sweetens the plot a little bit!

didn't they replay the two main events on ****e TV a week later?

as far as the card goes, I'll pay for it. It's kind of like Coors light, I know its bad for for me, but I can't resist :rolleyes:

It's not a great card obviously, but I've seen alot worse. Top heavyweights fighting isn't all bad. If you don't watch and Ruiz gets knocked out, then you'll be sorry ;) :D

5 Heavyweight bouts in one night is pretty impressive and i am looking forward to it in a way because i have a good feeling that Golota is going to out land Ruiz and beat him non points. I can put up with anything to witness seeing John Ruiz lose, i have a dream. :D

lol. Seriously Marvdave i REALLY want to see John Ruiz lose his title to Golota. Ruiz will always be in my bad books. If i was a millionaire i would pay David Tua to fight him again. This and the Byrd fight are the two that interest me on this venue because they both have potential to be upsets although the Byrd fight may have the predicatble ending we all expect to see.

I see no way Byrd will lose, but the mere hope of seeing Ruiz get knocked out is worth 50.00 to me. I also think Rahman and Meehan will be entertaining. I also look forward to seeing Barrett. He doesn't seem to be taking advantage of his win a few months back. We shall see.....Cheers
