    So what if they struggle with english. You guys aren't producers or directors. Hbo can make anything work. They got skills man. Plus in america peopleb are supposed to have opportunities. Here is clotteys chance to get some more fans. Plus its all opinion on whether or not it is entertaining. some of u would rather watch hatton moon the camera.

      You could have said the same thing about Pacquiao, Cotto, Hatton, or even Mayweather. Floyd wasn't a mainstream star until the De La Hoya-Mayweather 24/7 series. 24/7 is about turning relative unknowns into big names.

      A big part of why the series is popular is learning about the different personalities, different cultures, and different families of each of the fighters. We don't know about Clottey but that doesn't mean there's nothing interesting about him.

        I believe the main question mark is just how much material both Clottey and Pacman will bring to the table.

        Remember, HBO did an extensive profile on Pacman pre-Cotto fight and to relive that wouldn't be a smart move. Especially since nothing is new, with the exception of the Blood-Tests and the failed fight negotiations. Clottey was and is an afterthought .... to play him up outside of that would be a problem because everyone would still view him as a standin.

        Its like everybody looking forward to Brad Pitt to do a big interview, he cancels and you end up with Joe Blow as a standin.

        This fight is the fight that could when the Floyd vs Pacman couldn't.

          I still would like to see the perspective on Clottey's side and how he trains ( the best parts imo)

          But with so little to work with since we seen almost every possible angle on pac, they should cut it to 2 episodes this time.

              It use to be something special, but has gotten stale, they need to save it for the most special occasions.
