Seriously, you have Mayweather and Baldomir on PAY PER VIEW (no ****ing way should this fight cost me money to watch) vs. two heavyweights that legitimately seem to hate each other and are both looking for a knockout on regular Showtime. Yet I'm looking at ESPN.com's boxing page and damned if 90% aren't tuning in for the sparring session on HBO instead of the all out war that can be expected on Showtime.

I know Mayweather is the greatest fighter in the world and there's nobody even close to him...all the more reason to watch a competitive slugfest. You can't tell me anybody out there when given a choice would choose to watch a sparring session over a knockdown dragout. I'm a bigger fan of Mayweather than Briggs, Liakhovich and every other Don King fighter on that card combined, but it comes down to what is entertaining and what is free (if you subscribe to Showtime of course). I'm simply baffled by this nonsense, but to each his own.

the small prospect of boxings greatest fighter being upset is to much for me pass up.

i would love to watch the heavyweight fight, but watching one of the greatest fighters of all time is more meaningful and pleasant to me.

As much as i hate the guy, u gotta have love for his pure talent and respect for the sport.

and i like guerro and i love williams, so i wanna watch those babies as well. thats a nice little touch
