    there was a whole ****in lot wrong with that broadcast, even if it scores high ratings its filled with lies to the casual watcher and only serves inward, the presentation was not boxing at all made me sick

    if the title was not mentioned because thurman is not the real wba champion i get it, but i think its pretty obvious what is really happening.. god i hope not

      I give it a B / B+. I thought it was a impressive start Broner / Molina was whatever kind of how I thought it'd go down. Thurman/Ghost was a great fight , Thurmans coming out party and can't even knock Guererro he went out like a champ. I like how the show shouted out the past greats and also The no commercials during the last 2 rounds was a good idea and the round about camera was cool.

      Not perfect don't know how I feel about the ring entrance, Great start though

      so much negativity it's kind of pathetic , I'm chalking it up to who is responsible for this show not the actual show. Most of the posters are so predictable and lame. Give credit when it's due it won't kill you

        How about you respect others' opinions instead of assuming ulterior motives?

          I respect other peoples opinions when their unbiased and give a honest take and give credit when it's due. I have a tough time supporting or respecting the opinions of some of the people on here who just complain or will always find something negative to say about certain fighters or promoters It's lame and honestly kind of come across as b.i.tch ass female


          I talk a tonne of Shiz about Allot of fighters but try and Give credit when due. But you can do you with your negativity regardless hope it works out for you.

            I agree with everything here, I normally vouch for Molina's effort, but that was sad the way he made Broner look like a prime sweet pea.

              The production was cheesy. Thank God for the Main Event because the other matches were subpar. But whatever there will be plenty of more fights on before the jury is out.

                It was decent but the ring walks were weird. Boxing ring walks are classic, every fighter has done them with an entourage. It helps pump up the event. Also I don't like the idea that the belts were not shown. I hope Haymon doesn't create his own belts.

                Also it seems that now more than ever we will not see a Haymon fighter against another promoters fighter.

                  I'd give it a D.

                  The commentary was awful, about as bad as it can get. I lost count the number of times they misread the fights. Thurman-Guerrero was ok, but it would have been ok on any channel.

                      I give it a B.

                      The Broner-Molina fight was pretty bad but the main event had some drama and was fairly well-matched for your typical boxing match. The production was little awkward but I'll look past that the first time around.
