You guys ever notice this? Whenever HBO has a prefight, fighter background story, they usually end up losing the fight. Out of my memory, I think Hatton is the first to actually win and barely at that. Let's take a look back to name some.
In no particular time order. (the fighter that they did the buildup on will get the * next to the name)

*Erik Morales-Zahir Raheem, Erik loses by decision
*Zahir Raheem-Acelino Freitas, Zahir loses by decision
*Zab Judah-Carlos Baldomir, Zab loses by decision
*Cory Spinks-Zah Judah 2, Cory Spinks loses by TKO
*Vitali Klitscko-Lennox Lewis, Vitali loses by TKO
*Manny Pacquiao-Juan M Marquez, Draw

I know I can think of afew more cause I was thinking about this last night. I'll post more if I can remember. You guys can think of anymore? What you think? It's bad luck? Or just some "tuneup" bouts gone bad?

This topic is lame, considering some of those fights were on Showtime. I doubt HBO would the background on them.

LOL.... "It Ain't Me"

I noticed this as well and told everyone in the room that whenever they do a video of the fighter's background, he loses or gets screwed. Pacquiao got a draw with Marquez, Morales got a loss to Raheem, and countless other times it's happened. I thought Hatton was dead at that point.

R. Kelly was arrested and tried for urinating on a 15 year old girl. It was caught on video tape.
