It's Every Boxing Fan's OBLIGATION to Hype DLH v PBF to their Mates !

i would enjoy 13 rd boxing, i would like them to add a next rd, i dont like ufc, i hope it quickly fades out.

I can't get into ufc, everyone I know who watches it happens to be the biggest rednecks ever. Plus, only a moron would pay to watch 2 minute matches. Ufc=short pussy ass fights. They take a man out quick, while most boxers fight almost 12 full rounds. Boxers are train to fight for longer periods, while ufc fighters aren't. lets not getting into to this with ufc viewers because it will all boil down to ppl having different preferences.

i cant hype it because 1. it is on ppv we dont get ppv down here, unless it is on dss, i only have cable 2. i aint interested in this fight, what is the point of this fight?, it is meaningless.

I didnt even read it.. The title is True though.. HYPE THE FIGHT EVERYONE i been hypin it all DAY

bump it up

I've tried to hype this fight to my friends. Most of them except one are UFC fans so Im trying to get them to watch boxing. They actually used to watch boxing, but since UFC came more into the mainstream they switched to watching that excusively. This may not be the best fight to get them back into boxing because it may not be totally action packed, but it's two names they know. I've tried to get them to watch some fights with me that I knew could be very exciting, but they didn't know the fighters so they didn't bother. So I think having a familarity with fighters is a key factor.

I've done my part so far.I've gotten a few of my "non-boxing" friends to watch this fight with me.

if where all trying to put boxing in the shop window to other would be fans would this be the 1 to wetten there appetites? i dont think so. we need a excitement fest of a fight coming up to hype up to friends even though mayweather/de la hoya is the biggest fight in 5 years its not gonna live up to the hype its getting

This fight might have a little more action in it than expected. I think Oscar will press the action, but yea no barn burner

if you wanna convert some casual fans into bigger boxing fans, u should get them to watch williams/margarito, zab/cotto or wlad/brewster... cause those fights are sure to have a lot of fireworks and a KO.... Exactly. Fuck supporting this overhyped fight - the point of touting something as a major event is that everyone should already know about it. If you have to still tell people that DLH and Mayweather are fighting on May 5, then that's half of the problem right there. Fans needed to tell non fans when Corrales and Castillo were first getting ready to fight two years ago. They needed to tell non-fans that Rafael Marquez was getting ready to face Israel Vazquez - in fact, Shaw used his own MMA promotion to help hype up that very fight, which was three weeks later. I'm not telling anyone they HAVE to watch this fight, just so it can surpass a UFC event. I'm not a fan of UFC, MMA or any of that crap, but respect the fact that they do a much better job than boxing when it comes to marketing and promotion. Golden Boy and HBO elected to put all of its eggs in one basket, going to the extreme for this fight, when in fact events like Barrera-Marquez could've used even 1/10 of the push this card is getting, in order to do better than what it did. GBP has fighters ready to defect, due to neglect all because of this card. All for a fight that will probably wind up, at best, an entertaining chess match.

I agree with guru; this might be a tactically interesting fight, but not the kind of thing that will make a boxing enthusiast of every casual sports fan. With that said I have frequently mention to non-fans that May 5 will be the 'biggest' boxing match for a long time.

i'm not sure if this is the fight to hype up... i dont expect it to be a barnburner... and the casual boxing fan could get turned off by it...

lol believe me...everytime i talk to my boys i hype this shit up...a couple of em' aint up on game cuz they just came back from iraq so i especially hyped it up for them....my girls even hypin it up lol...can't wait

I support Boxing and UFC!

I'll give it a shot.. But these Boxing guys burned me the last time I did that when I hyped: De La Hoya vs. Trinidad.. :lol1:
