    I really like the Quillin-Lee fight, no idea who is going to win but I hate the Garcia fight, Danny will win imo, not even in question for me.

      I'm with you. Leaning towards Quillen and DSG but Peterson and Lee definitely have good chances

        I enjoyed the main event, and I changed the channel after the 8th round of Broner/Molina.

          C- and I'm not giving it an F,because Guerrero managed to come back with a late rally,and made it a fight. The ringwalks looked awkward as hell,the commentary was boring and dry,and the walk in stage looked like something ripped out of wwe. No ring announcer,and did anyone notice that they used the same song from grudge match? There was honestly more commercials than boxing, and it was insulting that they advertised the may vs PAC fight,but apparently mayweather is the only one fighting,since they only showed him. And did they really say that mayweather is the fighter of the decade,when its Pacquiao that won that award? All the hype was for nothing,because this won't put a dent in HBO or showtime. Haymon tried bringing out the big guns,and they all misfired. They literally gave away tickets for free,and there were still plenty of open seats,even at ringside.

            And the sound cut out multiple times during the Broner fight

            Fighter intros were boring and lame. Robert Bird was a disgrace, he pulled Molinas face back with his bare hands for no reason. Hes a horrible ref

            Thurman vs Guerrerro was a good fight but they didn't give Guerrerro a post fight interview when he was really the star of the show.

            It was their first event so I wasn't expecting it to be HBO quality but theres alot of things they need to improve

            They did give him a interview, it's just that they switched the telecast over to their secondary network, which you may not have or you weren't paying attention to. The third and last fight with Mares was on the other channel as well as Guerrero post-fight interview.

              It was a pretty good night for boxing. The main event was great and that is typically what people tend to remember.

              Yeah the ring entrances could have been done better and the Broner/Molina fight didn't come out the way people expected, but it's boxing it happens sometimes. Like I said what matters is the Main Event was entertaining, and that is what most people tend to remember.

                They interviewed Guerrero on NBCsports instead of NBC due to time restraints I assume.

                    Here is what I didn't like about the PBC event:

                    1. They had an agenda. They deliberately ignored fighters who hold Titles. Keith Thurman was not announced as the WBA Champ, though I suppose some are ok with this since he is just the 'regular' champ.

                    2. The horrible generic NBC music that was playing as the fighters were making their entrance. For god sake, let the fighters express themselves. Guerrero should've came in with Mariachi music blasting, and Broner with some type of Hip Hop/Rap genre music. Then they had them put on Taxedo's during the pre-fight previews. Is this how you reach out to a new audience?

                      I did not know that, thanks

                      I just think they should've started the main event a few minutes earlier so they could've guaranteed a post fight interview for the main event.
