    As much as we love to hate on HBO's involvement in match making....

    We need to give props for their attempts to introduce casual fans to the new generation of Boxing. I think they finally realize that the old cows are running out of milk. I really dig the introductory pieces they had in between fights. The graphics and production may have been a bit lame, but it was a good effort on HBO's part on highlighting who the new stars are and why they should be watched.

    I was thinking the same thing, gay **** probably has better production values. I could have lived without the spin Max puts on everything to make it seem more exciting but it was good they are doing something different, trying to be creative...

        HBO would've been much better suited to just hire someone here at boxingscene to put together some nice highlight videos of the fighters they wanted to highlight. The lame graphics, coupled with Kellerman talking about them all as if they were world beaters already really killed it for me.

          that **** reminded me of those public school programming they would show in home period called "Squared One" I think. They tried to make it look "cool" and Hip", but just looked corny as ***. that **** was ages ago of course.

            You know I'm a PWill stan. But Max is choking on PWills pubes.

                Max is seriously in love with him.

                I don't hate Paul, I just don't know if he's actually the goods or not yet. The way Quintana treated him like a cheap whore made me second guess him altogether. Regardless of the revenge he got in the rematch.

                Paul doesn't have multiple divisons frozen in fear like Max claims, if you want to see what that looks like, look at a prime Roy Jones Jr.
