    ****, You forget about how good the 24/7 shows are

    Just watched May-Hat 24/7 EP4, and DLH-Pac 24/7 EP 3.

    They are amazing, simple as.

    I don't know who the production team are for these episodes but it's just brilliant work, really makes me want to watch the damn fights again, even though i've already seen them enough times.



    Bring on Mayweather-Marquez 24/7, although I don't think it will be one of the best, I have yet to see a bad 24/7.

    Good Job HBO.

    And just 1 thing, what has happened to the "normal" countdown shows, They were also brilliant work, we need more of them. NOW.

          After using cost-benefit analysis, HBO probably decided to make a few awesome promotional episodes (24/7's) rather than all these little ones that did nothing (Countdowns).

          Calzaghe-Jones was probably the worst one, followed by De La Hoya-Pacquiao. That's just me, though.

            the best ones to me involve floyd...he's the most entertaining out of everyone...he also brings out the stars...manny pac does as well...but he has no charisma...oscar turns the **** into a "me" thing...funny to say especially after saying mayweather has the best ones...but oscar is on some other ****...that running around the track and not speaking to freddie roach was just some ***** **** to me...

              I want HBO to create a 24/7 of all the events that occured in every year of boxing. Would be pretty sweet.

                    Co-sign, 24/7 is a brilliant series and has been great for Boxing and some of the biggest fights we've had in the past two years. At first, I thought it actually might have been overkill unlike the countdown shows, but they've been so good.

                    My favorite bit is the end of DLH-Mayweather Episode 3, as Oscar's driving home and the rest of the episode those last few minutes before the credits. Where Oscar's in his car saying "One day closer to the fight...I'm anxious..." and then the show him hitting the bag with the audio of Floyd going "You a *****!" and back and forth with Oscar and Floyd talking that clip is BRILLIANT.
