shane-manny-ppv...floyd-jmm-ppv...but alexander-bradley free??? this is whats wrong with boxing right here

they'll get there. but then maybe not?

here's why. manny is the most exciting fighter right now. floyd, he's the most talented, and maybe the most controversial fighter atm. oscar? well he IS the golden boy.

simple, they are not as accomplished as Manny, Oscar, Floyd or even Margarito. Alexander vs Bradley is not a Superfight, sorry.

I'm guessing because every Oscar fight is a superfight so when he fights the P4P #1 its going to be a huge attraction and Manny is also a star so all of his fights are going to be an big attraction although it really shouldn't have been but that's just how powerful good promotion is.

Bradley and Alexander both are far from stars thats why it's not seen as a superfight by casual fans but to real fans it sure as hell is a superfight.

you've got to work your way up to the top and obviously bradley and alexander are still a long way to the top. all promoters want their fights to be in ppv if it's worth to be in ppv but this fight, although a very good fight, will not appeal to casual fans that's why they're offering it for free. but it's on hbo so this will be a good oppurtunity for both to widen their fanbases. they just need to put up an exciting fight.

none of those were/are 'superfights'

**Repeddled** · 01-12-2011, 02:25 PM

It's all about perceptions really. There is no set definition for a 'superfight'.

Exactly,Castillo-Corrales wasn't billed as a superfight,but it is arguably boxing's greatest fight,go figure.

**Larry the boss** · 01-12-2011, 02:35 PM
