Pacquiao-Cotto undercard is a pathetic joke.

    Who cares about this card? I know I don't. At least the Floyd-JMM undercard was decent on paper. The opening fight was a war, and Michael Katsidis put up a good effort to make an action fight, even though Escabedo's will got broken and the fight became one-sided. And then there was a slight possibility that the John-Juarez rematch would be exciting like the first fight even though it was a let down. There is not one good fight on the Pacquiao-Cotto undercard. And for that reason, I'm not buying it and letting Arum rip me off.

    Undercard ? Who in their right mind would even care when we have the matchup we do in the main event ?

      Didn't Floyd get criticized for beating on a guy who had just fought at 130 not long ago? I believe the Pac-Cotto fight will be exciting while it lasts though.

        Floyd doesn't fight you straight up, which is what a lot of people are hoping to see with Cotto vs Pacquiao. Both are offense 1st fighters.

          The only one on the undercard I was looking forward to was Valero vs Soto. But now that it's off it's worthless.

            Neither Soto nor Valero are on it and that kills the appeal by quite a lot. The other fights on the undercard are pretty bad.

Gomez and Soto Karauss will probably be the most exciting fight on the Pacquiao-Cotto undercard, but I don't care about that fight. Two defenseless gate keepers with no power. At least Golden Boy made an effort to make a good undercard with Floyd and JMM. Green pulled out of that fight with Bika, but I wasn't too impressed with Zab Judah being scheduled to fight on the undercard. I'm actually glad that he pulled out. Because the first fight that happened to be a war is the one that was bumped to the televised portion to take it's place.
              I cant disagree...Im just saying sometimes judging a book by its ****ty looking cover may not be the best thing to do. Give it chance then we can raise hell about it. It may be good .

                I dont care about the undercard if you have this kind of main event.. Floyd-marquez undercard had some good names but guess what it bored me to death.. all we pay for is the main event..

                  I'm not a fan of either main event fighter and the undercard is utter **** but I'm still going to dish out 50 bucks for this.

                    Your right Iceta, about lil man big man aspect but even though you might not purchase fight I know you won't miss it. Your just as big of a boxing nut as the rest of us. Fights just too intriguing of a match up to be overly concerned with undercard!
