Just because you put a guy with a name on the card doesn't make it a stack card! Putting a guy with a name against another fighter who's capable of beating him, that's what makes a stack card! Showtime has a habit of putting guys with a name on the same card but against weak opponents! Khan & Alexander is a decent fight but in no way it's a main event type fight!

Why is it so hard for Showtime to make good fights when Al Haymon has a stock of fighters? This is total bull****! What is the problem of making these guys face each other? Espinoza & Haymon is full of ****! They want the public to continue paying for these so call stacked(crappy) cards! Make the damn fights the fans pay there money to see!

Khan Alexander isn't a main event?

showtime always pack december with loads of fights

happened last year too if you guys remmeber the 4 fight stacked card which had judah vs paulie as main event

it might be because haymon and showtime are using the money they get from floyd ppv in septemeber

I'm all for seeing Ortiz and Mares back in the ring, but it's pretty sad to see them fighting on SHO extreme fighting TBA's. I rather they just sit out this year, and have bounce back fights in early 2015. I would like to see Gonzalez vs Mares, and Ortiz vs Ghost.
