    I honestly think HBO ****s Tony more than they **** Cotto. I was interested in hearing Tony's part of his story, knowing that he never had a countdown.

I'm pissed.
      u basically said it..

      HBO probably doesnt want to put out anything because they both dont speak english..
      cotto does, but not enough..

      thats probably why

          the "no english" excuse shouldnt even be entertained because Pacquiao/Marquez was practically no english. something just isnt right.

          i think that HBO is carefully managing their budget because of DLH/Mayweather and if thats the case, its just another example of how DLH/Mayweather II is hurting Boxing.

                  More the reason to show a countdown i thought you knew


                  Cotto v. Judah did have a countdown. That i recall.

                      People in the UK get a countdown, but it's done by Sky Sports instead of HBO.
