Hopefully they see that it polluted a generation of internet boxing fans with its myths and exaggerations and are fine-tuning it to avoid this in the future.

Many they have to wait 10 more years before they start calling fights Legendary

Beat me to the punch lol...

All those fights HBO did coverage on had stories behind them. There have been great fights since then, but none really had a full package to present a half hour segment on more than you just tuning in that night and witnessing a great fight.

The last huge event to me was Oscar vs Floyd, and Im sorry...but that was not a legendary night (unless you're the Casino owner)

They should do older fights anyway.

I already remember the build-up, the night of the bout, and aftermath for bouts like DLH-Vargas, Hopkins-Trinidad, Trinidad-Vargas, Gatti-Ward, etc.

I don't need to re-live it, I'd rather see something older.
