    Versus let the cat out of the bag! I stayed away from boxing and they blew it!

    Terrible decision by Versus to announce the result of Jones-Green. I purposefully stayed away from sports and boxing news all day so I wouldn't find out what happened, and they ruined it.

    Did this happen to anyone else?

    NO offfence man but thats dumb. This is one case where you couldnt do that. Why would they not talk about the outcome when Hopkins & RJ have a bitter rivalry and were supposed to meet next? It makes no sense at all for them not to speak on it

          I knew the results already. If I were in your shoes I'd be pissed too.

            I knew what had happened already but i still felt a little confused as to why they would spoil it like that for the viewers who tried their best to stay away from forums. news, etc.

              How can they not spoil it when Hopkins himself is going to speak on it immediatly after the fight?

                The fight took two minutes to show. Why not just show it as the first thing real quick and then talk about it. Why would they show it last?

                Versus does a good job, but I think they blew that one.

                    LMFAO!!!!!! haha, the announcing crew should'ved avoided spoiling it like that. I planned on doing the same thing myself, but I woke up 7 AM checked my twitter (don't laugh twitter aint that bad), and the first thing i saw was one of my homies saying ROY GOES DOWN IN THE FIRST......take it from me, bad way to start your day
