    Did Golden Boy drop the ball?

    This is predicted to be maybe the best selling boxing event of all time. You figure they would take this chance to put on a great undercard, possibly showcasing future stars. But no, we get a Juarez fight instead. Did Golden Boy drop the ball here?

        Oh yea they did. Everyone dropped the ball.

        Its time to stop caring about money, and more about the future.

        Andre Berto should undoubtedly on that undercard.



        HBO also dropped the ball by not following the fight up with another fight. How dumb is that.

        They knew about the TAYLOR-SPINKS fight AFTER they learned about the MAYWEATHER-DLH fight.

        Why couldnt they move the TAYLOR-SPINKS fight up a week, showcase Taylors skills and Showcase the entertainment and skill level of Edison Miranda/Kelly Pavlik.

            I think there is good possibility that the Juarez vs Hernandez fight will be the most action packed fight of the night. So i disagree that the undercard isn't so good because of this fight; however, I can not speak for the other fights on the undercard

              They are all very good fights.

              They will enterain for sure, especially the bautista one, BUT they should showcase more rising superstars.

              These guys are good, bautista may be something, But Rocky is about as far as he'll go IMO. HIs high point was the barrera fights.

                Which Golden Boy fighters would you showcase? I think Bautista was a good choice to put on the card. He could turn into something...
