      The fight aired 2 hours earlier than scheduled because of the rain and it was up against a Showtime card. Presumably had HBO accepted the fight, it would be in the US and in prime time this time so ratings don't suffer.

        The time factor hurt the most IMO.... unless it was broadcasted that was the plan, I could see people missing it

          he fought like a ho against pavlik.

            Theres nothing exciting about Sergio unless your waiting for his opponent to catch up to him and see if Sergio will go down from one punch. HBO is NOT going to carry this guys tune up and without a KNOWN opponent Sergio can't sell peanuts! Sitting around waiting for this guy to stop running away is NOT exciting. Junior is a horrible green fighter and the alure to that joke bout was if & when he could catch up and if Sergio could stand up when he got hit!!!
            That was it, 90 seconds of intrique!!!!
            Can anyone imagine Sergio in with the great middleweights? He'd get hurt bad!

                The fight with Murray didnt even do 700K? Well that makes sense why HBO doesnt wanna fly half way around the world for **** ratings. They already gave Sergio his tune up at home

                    If they only do fights in the US then why did we get Shimming shoved down our throats? And why are they covering Pacquiao vs Rios?
