Me kind of, but I am not going to lose any sleep it I miss it. Be just fine watching the highlights of what it seems a set of pretty easy match ups.

Yoenli Hernandez vs Kyrone Davis, Lucero vs Valenzuela

(Lucero is prompted up by Bob Santos and Sampson Lewkowicz, but from what I seen he doesn't stand out, I think he be upset)

Moton vs Viamonte gets my attention more than Charlo and Plant fighting unrecognizable Middleweights. The prelims are also better as there are multiple notable prospects and is free. Because they are at least they have the excuse that they are improving and aren't formerly champions.

Yeah, I feel the same. Not really hyped for the main event matchups — they seem like tune-up fights at best. Moton vs Viamonte might actually be the most interesting one on the card. As for Lucero, I agree — he hasn't shown anything special yet.

Interested enough to tune in and have a look.
One of the things I enjoy about boxing is following the slow-motion arc of a fighter's career and recalculating his potential at any point in time based on age, ability, and motivation. We all do this. We'll get a look at where Plant and Jermall appear to be, and then re-jigger our take on the 168 landscape accordingly.
Also, you never know when a real fight is gonna break out - there's always that

Are these competitive fights? Or just showcase fights for Plant and Charlo?

they could be something anytime you put two fighters of any caliber inside the ropes and there is one..... a chance a fight might break out you just dont know then there are the odds of someone getting cut and having to adjust and survive that or a flash knock down or a hard aggressive fighter who dont have a chance on the books comes on strong. Are those things going to happen in the ring this weekend ? I will tune in and if it stinks so it stinks, maybe bc of the platform a fight or two will break out and get a few more potential fans to start watching the fights...................

For free? Sure. It is boxing and I am happy to watch something priced correctly.

Anything can happen in boxing, but most fights are predictable nowadays. Reason why matchmakers exist.

Any thoughts on why there's very little interest on these cards this coming Saturday?
