      Yup that's what is hilarious. Haymon fans spend all this time and energy denying what's going on and even the fighters and their fathers have no shame admitting it. Disgusting

        Pac/bradley III card is bad.... I usually buy it and have people over, nahhh... i'm either going to somebody's or i'm streaming.
        Then nothing good...
        UFC already popping with McGreggor/RDA
        The fight itself isn't a bad fight as Bradley is still and always a dangerous fighter but we've seen this twice already! No need for a trilogy. The fact that there were more interesting opponents available (Khan, Crawford) yet they still chose to go with Bradley is the reason why I'm protesting this fight. I'll catch the free replay the following week.

        UFC is indeed making a comeback and as it stands I'd rather pay for a good UFC card.

          Blame the networks - they approve these mismatches ; good thing the commissions have been denying certain fights lately.

            I for one hand think Bradley will still make it competitive like the first half of the second fight... the card overall is just horrible. It's basically prospect watch with Valdez and Ramirez on the televised portion... that's horrible. That's the kind of stuff on a Pac card when Pac-mania was alive and well....not now, not now at all.

              Fighters and trainers openly advertising their intent to avoid tough competition is a disturbing development. I don't know what to attribute it to.

                After Danny gets a gift against Guerrero, there will be a Salka rematch at a 151 pound catch weight.

                  That is just sad. The fact he said that with pride lets you know he 100% believes in what he is saying makes it even worse.

                      It's because there is an entire generation of boxing fans and upcoming fighters who heard Floyd Mayweather use this kind of talk as a selling point and will buy into it.

                      Problem is too many fans and fighters don't understand how Floyd Mayweather got to the top of the sport or how he stayed there.
