For goodness sake HBO @ least give us Meza-Clay for this opener...he's a tough SOB & TV friendly. What in the world is a Gary Sykes?

Yea man, the Meza-clay fight sounds better to me now, he is TV friendly for sure. the height thing might be an issue though

Sykes is pretty tall, something they might be looking at if they plan on facing Escobedo after this.

Would like to see Meza-Clay too...he's exciting to watch and a warrior. Definitely would put up a better challenge in one night than than Perez, Rodriguez, and Litzau combined and not a 122 pounder like De Leon so definitely would be worth tuning in as a prelude to the big main event rematch with Peterson/Khan.

You're acting as if Golden Boy and Oscar are forcing you to go to Vegas for this and making you watch this crap.
