    Checking back to Ali and Flores every round was dumb and annoying.

      In terms of format/aesthetics did not like,ringwalks were lame the coverage seemed dated, there have to be commercials I get it but for major/top tier fights it bothers me FNF level it's ok but overall unless there are real tweeks I'm more than content w/paying a subs. network for Boxing,

      There's a reason boxing isn't on network tv and honestly I don't see it lasting in 2-3 years they might have some fights but I'd be surprised if it's not scaled back big time.

            Pavlik's entourage of neo-**** skinheads would never be let within a mile of NBC's cameras lol.

                Ffs these guy's haven't had a boxing match for 30 years...even champs get tune up bouts. Give them a couple shows to get their act in order.

                  I really never understood why characters in wrestling (WWE/WWF) can get away with acting sleazy, and it's on mainstream tv.

                    Maybes these fighters should align themselves with an entourage that knows how to act human while on a national tv format and not like savages that they are....
