      which is bad news because they'll continue putting **** like Barrera-Fana on PPV as long as people are dumb enough to pay. but lately, yeah, Golden Boy has done amazing shows with De La Hoya-Mayorga, Vargas-Mosley I & II, and Hopkins-Tarver. The Golden Boys are also undefeated this year

          Why call those people dumb? Why not call us who didn't order the ppv cheap?

          People want to see a boxing match good. You got hbo you'll see the fight the following week.
