You usually don't see a fight this strong on an undercard. I think Arum wants to inflate the buys for Pac/Cotto as much as he can to give him more leverage against Mayweather. -
Are you serious this fight is in no way a main event fight, maybe for espn, but not for payperview, sho, or hbo... This, in no way inflates the undercard!Comment

yes it does
two young undefeated exciting fighters going at it,one more proven than the other (the champion) and one with something too prove (the challenger)
what more could you want?Comment

They better get things worked out because thats a good fight to have as an undercard, **** could be a main event if it wasn't under cotto/pac.
EDIT: Oh I see it might be a main-event now, if Gary Shaw gets it. Hmmm... I don't know what I should be rooting for... If Gary Shaw gets it I get to watch a pretty cool fight on showtime-hd... If cotto/pac gets it I have to watch the fight probably on a crappy stream or at a bar.... Decisions...
I'm hoping it goes to Showtime, I hate ppvs.Last edited by Freddy Krueger; 09-02-2009, 08:44 AM.Comment

Whatever the reasoning is boxing fans are going to get 2 real PPV's with stack undercards. This is also a good thing for Peterson because he will be able to fight Bradley away from a Gary Shaw casino and away from Cali.Comment
