      I understand not being sold. Juanma is one win after some ugly losses, and that was a guy he KOd before. Too much is being made of the Ponce KO and Las Vegas is a long way from Puerto Rico.

        Gamboa not showing up for the Rios press conference in Calle 8 didn't help the cause at all. Hopefully we a great card for us Miami fight fans to come out.

          Probably won't see any Haymon fighters on this undercard.

            lara/canelo should be enough,juanma always gives good fights and that's what ppv fights should have,good exciting fighters who make the purchase worth it,soto karass always is in exciting fights and against alexander it should be interesting because it's an important fight for devon because if he wins he might get another shot at maidana,i think the right fighters are on here for a ppv,exciting fights,if it was devon vs mike jones I wouldn't like it but right here soto karass will make it a good fight,i think all ppv should have three championship fights and the fourth should be like an eliminator type of fight,since they want us to pay they should make them like that

                  50 dollar range ppv, steep drop in sales for sure if they ask for more. Well, me, I wont buy. Canelo lost his only test, Karrass has and will get boxed, Juanma is really easy to hit. Lara can't carry the show, no superstars, and a room full of suspects. It's a hard sell so far.

                    I thought that would've been good... with that off the table and this in chief support...i'm meh with it
                    Damn, I was banking on the card you posted the other day, I'm a little reluctant now.

                      yup, remember the berto vs Quintana fight. Boxer who lives in Florida and of Haitian decent(lots of Haitians in Florida) and on top of that portions of the tickets went to Haiti Relief......and still got a tiny tiny audience.



                      with that being said though, promoters need to do small shows there to bring attention to boxing and slowly get more fans to attend
