Comments Thread For: Unprecedented HBO Coverage Set For Pacquiao-Marquez

[shadeyfizzle]

With the tv coverage finally giving big fights the superbowl week treatment now top rank and gbp should follow the ufc's lead and give all their fight week pageantry the superbowl treatment as well.

It would be great to have a boxing fan expo. The wildcard and romanza gyms are full of stars that are gonna be there to cheer on pac and marquex anyway it would be great to have an expo where the likes of the great zaragosa put on boxing clinics for the kids and alex ariza can peddle his shakes and educate on the importance of nutrition in training. Maybe a stage where arum and oscar can give keynote speeches and announce upcoming fights for other fighters in the stable.

Now all HBO PPV needs is younger, more exciting announcers that don't beat-down the fighter while they are fighting, or announcers that attempt to become the story of the night.

Hate him all you want, Bob Arum has done more for the sport than any promoter out there.

That would be great, but little chance Pacquiao or Mayweather status fighters attend that.

Commentators

Why will anybody tell the EMPLOYER to fire anybody by doing their JOB? Do you think HBO does not know or OBSERVE their EMPLOYEES? COMMENTATORS
do their JOB. It is our PREROGATIVE to ISTEN or CHANGE THE CHANNEL if we do not like what we are looking or hearing.

Lets promote the hell out of what will in all likelihood be a one-sided beating...brilliant marketing plan for boxing.
