I think boxing just learned a valuable lesson

Make the big fights people want when they want them. So somebody doesn't get stopped in a "build up" fight

Couldnt have said it better.

I hate when they hype a fight a year from now

[RlCKY]

Make May-Pac before the same **** happens to either fighter (highly doubt anyone could beat either fighter but you never know)

[KILLA RIGHT]

exactly which is why i hate when ppl talk **** about making alexander vs tim...even though it wasnt great we know the results instead of wondering

Exactly. Props to Shaw and King. They don't play that build up s**t they get right down to business. Arum is probably about to cry right now lol

I kind a agree but remember, promoters want to make money. They want to build up the fighters so instead of showing the fight at regular HBO/Showtime, it will be PPV.

I believed the Bradley-Alexander fight should have happen at the end of this year or early next year, not last december.

Agree 100%.

Just look at

Angulo vs. Kirkland
Pavlik vs. Abraham

Those fights were some of the top fights that people wanted to see but weren't made because promoters think that everything will go perfect.

I love when stuff like tonight happens so these idiots can wake up and just give the fans the best fights.

See: Oscar De La Hoya...his fight with Bernard almost never came to fruition

[ИATAS]

yep, this is what I was afraid of. sucks because I wanted so badly for gamboa to be the first to beat lopez

[RlCKY]

I highly doubt, after this, that Arum will pursue Pac-Marquez III now
