    Uh, this card really sucks. Sampson originally said Javier Fortuna was going to be on it, so I was hoping he would get some exposure at least.

        That's a really bad undercard. I thought HBO was going to listen to the fans and make Top Rank step their game up in this area?

          Has nothing to do with Top Rank and that was said after these fights were already being put in place.

          Cotto promotions/Dibella grabbed all the spots

            Im committed to buy this, so I am pissed (my homies rotate PPV parties). This philosophy of "undercards don't matter" SUCKS! If Porter vs. Brook goes on the undercard of Canelo vs. Lara, this fight may suffer.

              I assumed that when HBO said it, it was going to apply to all their PPVs.

              These fights were just now finalized so it seems they could have demanded better. But if things were already being put in place before HBO's comment then that is a legitimate excuse.

                  How do you lose to Willie Nelson? You have the judges F&*K the scores up? It happens right. Jackson won the fight, and there was even a knock down (Nelson's Glove hit the canvass) that didn't get counted, but that doesn't happen in boxing right?!?! John Jackson is the truth, you fool will learn soon.
