    HBO needs to do a great "COUNTDOWN" for Cotto-Margarito

    They did such a great job with the 24/7 for Mayweather-Hatton. Remember this?

    You know what I might get hate for saying this but when I go to see fights whenever there is a black fighter vs white fighter that's when you get the biggest and loudest crowds. Hatton vs Mayweather, Mayweather vs DLH, Kelly Pavlik vs Jermain Taylor.

    I went to see Pacman and Marquez at the same bar and the bar was empty, freaking disgrace.

      Since when did DLH become white?

          I think it is about the "national pride" moreso than race. Mexican rivalries are great. Mexican vs Puerto Rican rivalries are great.


          In marquez' case, he just isn't a charismatic fighter. Pac vs Erik or Pac vs MAB drew alot of interest.

                Most Mexicans don't care about Marquez, only the die hards do. If it would have been Erick Morales that's a different story..
                Anyway, I don't know much people who got to bars to watch fights. Most just order the PPV.

                    Dlh is white, it doesn't matter that he's Mexican. I mean I see a bunch of white people in those Mexican soap operas.
