GAY, it might not be as gay as your avy but its still pretty gay. I dont wanna see 4 episodes of Calzaghe being an arrogant prick and 4 episodes of Jones feeding chickens.

Can't wait to see this. lol @ the feeding chickens comment; spot on.

could be awsome but... there have been much better fights to do a 24/7 on.

Im def gonna watch, but im not interested really. I doubt it does strong ratings considering Calzaghe is an unkown here the states, and Jones is 40

I guess they're pulling out all the stops to get people to watch lol

idk if itll pay off though. It should definetly push Ticket sales though. But the money they put in may not all come back.

I doubt they sell out. Ill put a max on maybe 15,000 seats sold tops IMO.

so ****ing ******....

24/7 should be for upcoming young superstars like andre ward, miguel cotto, amir khan, yuriokis gamboa etc. NOT for some 40 year olds.

instead of promoting young superstars on 24/7 (Which will be a good investment for the future), gbp is investing in some past prime 40 year olds LOLLLLLLLLLL

Thought there are no promoters, just Calzaghe and Jones?
Another user said, 24/7 cost around 150,000 bucks, so they paid it themselves?

HBO pays for the production cost of what ever they do. Networks that put on shows can be considered co promoters as well because they do what they do for ratings.
