    Golden Boy Is Changing The Game With This PPV

    Regardless of how you feel about Golden Boy, we should all be happy after yesterday's announcement of Danny Garcia vs. Lucas Matthysse being added to the Mayweather/Canelo undercard.

    It raises the bar for PPV boxing. No more garbage and a name in the main event. We want big important fights top to bottom.

    It's on HBO and Top Rank to answer back now.

    This is not new, Don King used to do it. As a fan it's great, but might not be smart business, more of a desperation move after the Guerrero ppv flopped.

      People have to remember GBP and Showtime have to put on better fights since GBP got booted from the #1 network HBO. After the Floyd Guerrero flop they have no choice but to go ALL OUT with this PPV.

        It's good and all but June, July and August have been slow for boxing.

        It's a matter of stacked cards or good fights on every weekend

          Cards used to be this good-the days when Chavez fought on Tyson's undercards. or the 80's where 3-4 title fights were on a don king card.

          But this card should force HBO to elevate the cards it puts on, as will the mares/gonzalez santa cruz/terrazzas card in august IMO.

            Game = changed.
            Hopefully people buy this ppv (as they should) and goldenboy has more incentive to make this happen more often.

            It seems like mayweather having showtime under the gun to make profit, they might have to do this everytime mayweather fights.

            I thought the last fight's undercard was really good too. (Mares/PDL, Rosado).

            This one, though, is just CRAZY. I can't WAIT for this one.

            Matthysse v. Garcia will steal the show.

              Great card, horrible price! Horrible weight stipulations too.

                  Hopefully they have a good back up to replace Garcia lined up.

                    Garcia isnt backing out. I would guess he'd probably fight injured if he had to. a win could mean a shot at floyd which is like winning the lotto.
