    translation of OP: "I'm a sucker for artificially sweetened soap opera drama."

    The worst parts of either are the melodramatic intros and outros. I'd rather just see a solid 30 minutes of footage with no narration.

      Exactly, I don't notice any difference. Both shows accomplish the same thing so it's a wash.

        I like showtime, but they will never beat that 24/7 theme music.

          Thank you! I could barely listen to the rapper (Common), who seemed to feel it his duty to deliver every sentence like it carried the weight of millennia of wisdom (gag). Barry Pepper is so much better.

            I completely agree!!!!! I was watching All Access last thinking I see the same thing from Mayweather everytime!!! Nothing changes in any episode every fight.

            I'm more interested in the Canelo side, not just because I am a fan but it is just more interesting!

              I was hoping they would give at least 1 episode for Matthysse-Garica but its Floyd doing the same thing he always does and Canelo who has the same amount of personality as a peice of wet cardboard
              wa actually hoping they were gonna something for the lead up to Matthyse-Garcia as well sso all the casual fans realized how big this fight is, and your pretty much getting 2 PPV's for one.

              Once again Mayweather has other big names with him to help with PPV sales. Caneelo alone is a major help, not to mention Mathyse and Garcia is a hell of a fight.

                Let's just be plain honest here. You hate All Access because you hate Floyd Mayweather. That's it. Everything remotely associated with Mayweather, you guys hate. That's how it works here, cute, but childish. I wonder how many of you are in your mid 30's and over.

                Now, there's nothing wrong with constructive criticism/feedback but this is not even close to it.

                Oh, by the way. Mayweather had a great part in HBO's 24/7. If I recall correctly, it was actually his idea and vision in the first place. Now you can crawl under your beds and hate on 24/7 too...

                With that said, I don't think All Access is that bad but they're using a safe formula. Common is my man but he didn't fit well in the narrator seat. Pepper is better.

                  I might be part of the minority here but i thoroughly enjoy watching the show. Watching two superstars in their comfort zone, during their rigid training and enjoying their time being simply human... makes the fighters that much more identifiable amongst us fans. Sure, we don't have all the riches Floyd posses, sure most of us can't indulge in that lifestyle, but it's interesting to see and hear the way Floyd perceives his hardships, opposed to the image that is projected during interviews and pressers.

                  Drama is cool and all but forcing it in this situation would make make the genuine feeling disappear. I am looking forward to watching the next episode . May the best man win come Sept 14th.
