    no reason why they couldnt add a Mikey Garcia or something, would be a great boost to the card.

      How many times could Nonito Donaire have been featured on a Pac ppv? And that's just one example, Arum missed the boat on a lot of potentially good cards.

        Michael Konz cock blocked Donaire from being on Pac undercards.

          Finally this is being adressed!!!!!!!!!
          Showtime is killing hbo with there undercards in my opinion every co main event should be for a title of some sort or 2 highley ranked fighters seems to me only floyd undercards know how to give the fans there moneys worth in the co featured bouts.
          ****ty undercards made the ufc loose a ton of fans and money hbo better learn from dana!!!!!!!

              Arum said he DIDN'T CARE about the undercards.

              He said people paid to only see the main event.

                This undercard ain't bad. Beltran-Usmanee is an all-action fight. Khabib-Vargas is interesting to me. Vasquez-Felix Jr. is a throw away fight for me.

                  Still, I'm willing to bet this will be one of the most fun PPV undercards this year.
                  Oh yeah. I think this is pretty decent especially based on what Top Rank usually gives us.

                  They aren't big names but they are all top 10-15 contenders in meaningful, competitive fights. What more can you ask for?

                  May 3rd gives us big names in meaningless fights. I'd take this card any day of the week.
