    A home showcase. He was meant to look good against a crafty veteran. Build his name a little more before giving him possibly Porter

      Are you dis*****g HBO is #1 in boxing??? HBO has sold more PPV's than anyone in boxing by a lot I imagine. HBO does better ratings then anyone. HBO goes back to the 70's with its storied history. Ali, Tyson, Oscar, Floyd, Manny. They've had every great fighter on HBO damn near for the last 5 decades. They got the best roster in the game. And they had GGG vs the 5KO ESPN guy & Kov vs the pizza delivery guy this year. EVERYONE puts on **** fights, even the #1 entity in boxing.

        Sensible advice. Fans need to start lowering their expectations and start watching only cards with meaningful fights in them. But then you might miss watching an upset and the look of a hypejob after getting dropped on the canvas. On the other hand such upsets usually go viral and it's easy to find them on the net just a few hours later. You won't be missing anything after all.

          I'd say both. Haymon is the recurring theme though.

            So in the history of boxing all the best always fought the best every fight? 2 fighters with buzz in the same division... Did they always fight immediately? I think alot of these fighters are getting money just like u would if u were in the sport in 2015 where money is pretty much everything. Sucks but its just the reality, alot of these guys are going to fight easy fights before they fight eachother, its business

            i wish it wasnt the case but its life... The blame is life

                Hymen was supposed to be the savior of boxing doe. Many posters supported the movement..... now we all have to live with it.

                    As a boxing fan i dont want to be told about an upset i want to watch it first hand. Cant watch them all but anytime i can i watch

                    And no they dont go viral unless its a big name. Huck upset never went viral just on NSB. Why? Cause if you told someone Huck got upset they would say "wow thats cool....whos Huck"
