    I'm still trying to figure out why people are crying about the matchmaking. I mean besides lucas Ruslan. And Kov pascal what great match ups did hbo put on? Apparently hearing lampreys voice is all these guys need to have a good time. THe fight in my sig was good too

        There's only been 4 good match ups imo. They've already had like what, 15 cards?

        Those 4 were:

        khan-algeria
        broner-porter
        thurman-guerrero
        peterson-garcia

        Only 2 of those fights were any good.

          Biggest problem is production. The entrances are lame, the commentators are too bad except on Spike, and there have been too many errors with sound and video. They have a lot of work there.

          Otherwise it's been okay. The fights are good, though they seem to place them in strange locations that don't draw crowds.

            Difference between hbo and Pbc is hbo mismatches end In ko's

            Pbc mismatches are boring

            And hbo are showcasing the top guy in the division-ggg, kovalev, Canelo at 154,

            No one cares about the frauds like Garcia- this guy already been beat and didn't give a rematch

            Casual fans are becoming wiser

              This is no untrue...

              No one watches boxing for the entrances

              Commentators are fine. Which ones are bad?

                The presentation is regrettable it's essentially the same thing the UFC is doing w/the uniform ordeal trying to make it more corporate for the masses that quite frankly don't care/watch.

                Haymon has always been a terrible matchmaker so it's basically the same as what he was doing before just on a more grandiose scale.

                Some fights are good some aren't it's just how the sport is.

                I watch a lot of fights and even I can't keep up w/ all the cards not sure how anyone with any semblance of a life could but that's the plan right over saturate get it more known.

                  Actually are being led to believe a guy like Kirkland has a chance against a canelo or a guy like Monroe or Algieiri have a "stylistic" chance to beat a GGG or a Manny, things we as diehards know isn't possible.

                  I'm tempted to make a Floyd/Manny joke, but you get my point.

                  I guess they are starved for another Tyson like fighter.

                    No hes saying bigger mismatches is needed. Casuals want a KO they dont care about matchups.

                      The hbo commentators are honest

                      And algeiri just almost beat the guy who's the frontrunner to fight floyd
