    Don't get me wrong I wanted on regular HBO also. But, GBP has done a horrible job with Mosley. They did not capitalize the momentum of the Margarito win. And, now he won't might fight until Jan? Cuz the can't get a date from HBO? This is why I like Arum and I think he is the last real promoter left. If he can't get a date from the networks he say **** U I am going to go in my own pocket and put up my own PPV show. But, back to the point $35 plus a stack undercard with competitive fights. I think could do at least 500k buys.

      I agree or at least have Berto finally step up his level of comp every time he is on your network.

            I will like to see all this fights before next year, but then again this monopoly from HBO and GBP is killing everybody else. GBP is just trying 2 put this shows with Oscar's partners as main events and not trying 2 use their new faces on then and that's going to kill then soon. I know soon those young guns are going to jump in on the Top Ranks army just to their names on top of shows. Look what their (tOP rANKS)are doing with Juanma and company in those PPV.

              Everybody dude responded with plus Antonio Margarito, Joshua Clottey, Sam Peter(currently), Chavez jr, Humberto Soto....
              I forgot about them. He has a stable. He also has the Peterson brothers lets not forget who are pretty good. Golden Boy best fighters all of them are on there way out. While, Top Ranks best fighters most of them anyway are on their prime.

                Can't count Oscar since he is retired...Mayweather is not apart of GBP. Hopkins, Mosley, Winky, and Marquez are all about at the end or their careers while Top Ranks has

                  ****** ass

                  Its Mosleys own danm fault, waiting till the end of the year to fight, he should have been doing that 3 months ago, but he wanted to wait for a big ppv payday, and look what he is getting Clottey. Wow just think of the payday he will get from that one.

                    The major networks don't want it and ESPN can't afford it.

                      Ricky Hatton, a Golden Boy Promotions fighter, draws more fans and makes HBO more money than the Top Rank fighters in bold...put together. So I don't know how does Top Rank has GBP beat when one GBP fighter is more valuable than 11 Top Rank fighters on that list, added together.
