        WTF do you care if people like the show?

        It highlights the sport, occasionally has some good fights, and gives opportunities to fighters who work their asses off but might never get a shot otherwise.

        Its contestants have had fights with Cotto, De la Hoya, Calzaghe, Forrest, Bute, Taylor, Gatti... the list goes on. Mora's a decent fighter who briefly took Forrest's belt, Forbes is a good fighter, Bika is a tough opponent that NOBODY wants to fight. Hell even K9 had a good win recently over a hyped European.

        As boxing fans we should support efforts to get the sport into the mainstream.

        And most importantly, I LIKE TO WATCH FIGHTS. Whether it's an HBO PPV between two elite fighters or a basic cable card featuring guys I've never heard of, I'm a fan of the sport and I'm going to ****ing watch it.

              Hey, you're free to your opinion.

              But as long as we're sharing, your thread is lame and you're being a troll.

                  I feed trolls.

                  Why are you posting about a show you think is crappy?
