      It's only appealing to casual viewers who have nothing better to do on a Saturday night.I'm sure you all think the production and the music is cool and what not,but this series has nothing to do with the sport.


      It's just a piss poor excuse to shove reality tv down the throats of true fans of this sport.

        Team Mosely pwned Mayweather on 24/7. Mayweather will win the fight, but it's 24/7 that people will remember most.

          hbo have done enough to destroy this sport but they could save some face by just cancelling this repetitive ****.
          The point of 24/7 is to reel in people who wouldn't be otherwise interested. It doesn't affect boxing or it's fans, outside of generating a few more PPV sales.

            That's who it's done for.

            Are you against boxing making a concerted effort to attract more viewers to their events?

              are you a boxing fan? even if you don't like the show, (which I do because you gain more insight into fighters and their lives than you would otherwise) THERES NO SUCH THING AS BAD PUBLICITY....boxing needs all the publicity it can get before they take all the boxing rings in the world and put cages on them for MMA

                Whenever scum like the Mayweather's are featured and open their mouths. They have no class and need subtitles. Fighters like Manny or Sergio Martinez could make it a legitimate and respectable show. So I guess there is hope

                  well iv got to say im surprised at that! 24/7 is brilliant for the sport. you take the piss out of casual viewers, but surely at one point, everybody here was a casual viewer! i see where you are coming from if you are talking about mayweather always on it, but it was great to see the personalities of all these fighters outside of the ring also. not only that, its great to catch a glimpse of these fighters in training.

                    the only thing killing the sport is robberies & boring fights by the top dogs.

                    oh yeah boxing don't go to the fans. They need to start coming to all the major cities.
