    So the Pacquiao vs Hatton undercard is going to be garbage. Was it ever NOT expected

    I assume everyone knows the big names so I'll only talk about the B sides.

    Pacquiao vs Hatton <- good enough.

    Humberto Soto vs Benoit Gaudet (20-1, 7 KOs) <- who?

    Mike Alvarado vs Juaquin Gallardo (18-7-1, 5 KOs) <- pathetic

    James Kirkland vs Michael Walker (19-1, 12 KOs) <- good looking record but he lost to 34-12 David Lopez and drew/barely beat Antwun Echols in 2008


    It looks like another horrible DLH vs Pacquiao undercard, funny thing about that card is that the horrible undercard was actually being talked about in boxing circles as much as the fight itself!

      my only complaint is that if all the undercards are all early KOs... HBO will waste an hour on filler instead of going right to the main event.

              Its not a bad undercard, but again its not a good one either. just average. But you gotta expect this with Goldenboy.

                I love a good undercard, me. Nothing better than a card full of quality fights that all go off ****. Before that Lightweight Lightning card got diluted, I was envious as fuck it wasn't being picked up over here. That's a concept GBP and the rest should be running with and trying to make a reality more often.

                  I don't think its going to be **** on the UK side.

                  Got DANNY WILLIAMS on there man!

                  haha,

                  Rendall Munroe defends his euro title, Jamie Moore defends his euro title after impressively dispatching Piccirillo last month, Olympian Tony Jefferies in his 2nd pro fight.

                  not too bad...

                  DANNY WILLIAMS!

                    yep even diluted that LL show is still a HUGE step forward, all of the fights (before barrios/casamayor pulled out) could've been main eventers themselves.

                    rather see something like that than one BIG fight and three blowouts.
