It's a business move. They sign Pavlik to a multi-fight deal and they get to air all his fights. If they dished out money for the guy why would they not show his fights?
If you don't like it, don't watch it.Comment

You talk about understanding peoples post, then you show a lack of basic understanding of anything.

this is not as bad as hbo showing mayweather-sosa mayweather-ndou mayewather-mitchell mayweather-bruseles mayweather-gatti mayweather-baldomir......................When they put on matchups like Pavlik/Lockett. When a casual fan tunes in to a fight like that all they see is Locket being 30-1 and assume he must be a quality opponent for Pavlik. They do this all the time to unbeknowing casual fans, Berto's last fight was against a guy who was 43-2 but was highly overmatched. HBO is in the business of building stars, its like when I was little and every week wrestlng would come on, the star would always wrestle a nobody. Thank GOD for Showtime and Gary Shaw being over there, he has repeatedly said that whoever he promotes will be in competitive fights, he isnt your typical promoter who is trying t make sure you win, he puts his fighters in tough fights so next time the fans will tune in again. That gray-headed menacing stare you see in the ring after his fighter's fight, the unrelenting poker face, thats what we need more of and it would be nice also if he even brought his act to more networks, it was his card he put on HBO with Yuriorkis Gamboa, all three of those fights were with good competition even though the house fighters were PROSPECTS. Big up to Gary Shaw Promotions.Comment

naw, its never an issue when Mayweather's involved. HBO is gonna hype and bull**** casual fans that DLH actually is dangerous and will be competitive against Mayweather using a good amount of their budget for the promotion instead of using it to invest in other boxers, but to Bhopreign, thats not an issue at all. hypocrisy at its purest and finest form.Comment
