    That would be an amazing card. I'm sure HBO would support it, because it would hype up a possible unification between Cloud and the winner of the main event.

      do it
      want Matthysse to get another shot!
      he can beat Zab or Alexander if he gets those rematches
      this would be an action fight
      pick Lucas if they do it

          Damn, didn't know this was gonna be a ppv. Thought this one was suppose to be a regular HBO card just like Hopkins-Pascal. They are messing up if they do put this on ppv. I'm a pretty hardcore boxing fan, but even I don't pay for a ppv unless it's headlined by a Mayweather or Pacquiao these days. Money is too damn tight.

              ^^^^=******ed. Why would you limit yourself LIKE THAt? Probably cuz you arent a hardcore boxing fan. Since when are floyd and manny more entertaining than other fighters? I didnt buy the last pac figt or the floyd-jmm fight. But i would buy dawson-bhop (a better chess match than floyds been in since maybe augustus that includes a greater fighter than floyd) holt-matthysse (a more dangerous fight for than anything manny's been in since cotto at least that's guaranteed action) and cloud pascal (better than any undercard fight on any floyd or pac fight).

                Yea, i agree with the soto thing, but matthysse would have been good enough in my eyes. Bradley needs to gdt back in the ring as soon as he can.

                Personally, im not a fan of bradley-soto but ill watch it. I think soto's slowijg down in a big way and cant *** with bradley at all.

                  Imo they need to stack the undercard if its gonna be ppv. If they are shooting for 450,000-500,000 US buys, which I believe is in the neighborhood of the Hopkins/Taylor fights.

                  Hopkins vs Bad Chad

                  Pascal vs Glencoffe or Cleverly (Steve Kim is saying Erdei or Shumenov)besides Erdei/Andrade I dont think Ive seen much of either. Obviously Im pulling for Pascal/Cloud but Im just throwing out names.

                  Holt vs Mattysse

                  Lemieux vs Karmazin/McEwan (Might be a bit much for a comeback but would be entertaining)or Ouma

                  Thats a card every fan should get behind

                    I have no interest on the headline fight. It's going to be terrible.

                      I didnt see Sotos fight this last weekend but he was sharp against Antillon(watched live in a box suite at The Ponda Center with Antillon fans)and in the rematch against the S. American guy that gave him trouble last fall.

                      What have you seen in his last 4 fights that make you think hes slipping? I didnt think he looked great in the 1st fight against the S. American but besides that, was fine up untill this weekend, which I havent seen. If anything I think fighting 5 times within a year will be helpfull even though he has had only had 1 high profile bout among them. It would've worked wonders for a guy like Bradley or PWill/
