    If enough fans do it will make a difference.

    But people are generally too apathetic and will just do nothing.
    this right here.

    cut off my showtime subscription. no more weeds, no more dexter, and no more californication and your answer is to hitch your wagon to al haymon and floyd?

    bye bye.

    hbo > showtime by a country mile.

    although im not liking their whole rapture series and they need to find a proper replacement for true blood, they still got the best movies, real sports, hard knocks, thrones, and most of the great action fighters in boxing like pacquiao, GGG, and kovalev.

      Does this clown even realize he has the power to say no to these garbage fights? I suspect he's too indebted to Haymon personally that he can't say no to whatever Haymon presents on his lap. I've never seen anyone who is in the position of power let's himself become subordinate to a mere boxer's adviser/promoter/manager whatever the hell he is.

      Why is Showtime buying this crap? Why are they not doing anything about this?

I recomend watching it even if you have to stream it instead of wasting your time watching the other joke of a card that will be going on.
        It's on TV Azteca, which I don't have. I'm sure I'll be able to find a stream somewhere. My knowledge of the 105lb division is pretty much nonexistent, so this seems like a good introductory match-up.

          Espinosa has a " GREAT " IDEA!!!!!

          Why don't we just pit the Champions against unkown unranked un-derserving lower weight fighters coming up in weight. The GREAT thing about this is that the ratings will get rid of JUNK like this! Nothing against Salka though.

            who are fighting algieri, caparello, and just fought gaele.

            Wake us when its crap fights is truly what you are upset about and not just Al and Floyd being the top power brokers in the sport.

              Is that ok?
              Sure it's ok, except that this thread is about the entire card and he didn't specify a particular fight. It also makes very little sense why he would complain as hard about one **** fight that's part of a tripleheader as opposed to an entire tripleheader being ****, but as I said it is ok.

                I only responded to the post about his complaint about a **** fight. I agree the whole card sucks, but Kov Caprello was as ****ty as any of these IMO.

                  algieri is a champ at 140, caparello is a ranked guy in his OWN division, geale is a former 2x champ at middle..... none are great fights, but they are far better then this farce. wake me up when ggg, pac, kovalev, fights a ranked 77 guy from a weight class below them. you're biased if you truly believe this fight is as bad as those, thats it

                    So basically you are giving guys you like a pass because Danny's **** fight is worse than their **** fight? I instead choose to call all of them **** fights and criticize all equally.

                    You are essentially trying to differentiate between Kevin ware's leg injury and paul George's leg injury.

                      no.. i dont like GGG nor kovalev.. you assume anyone thats a pac fan likes other guys you call big punchers, idk why.

                      im not giving anyone a pass. theres a difference between a bad fight and a heaping pile of ****. those are bad fights, this fight is a heaping pile of ****. there is a difference. we both know it. what a letdown, i thought you were unbiased.
