    According to The Scene, a deal has been struck between HBO and Top Rank. Arum says HBO will be doing a 24/7 for the fight, but only two or three episodes instead of the usual four, since there isn't much time between this fight and the Pacquiao-Marquez PPV.

    Sounds good. Considering how awesome their first fight was, and the hand-wrap conspiracies that have pursued since, a 24-7 of some sort is justified. It's gonna' be a massive Puerto Rican/Mexican event.

    Sounds about right. Even if they could have, they wouldn't have had a four part 24/7 with these guys I don't think. Two non-english speakers, with similar low-key personalities. Neither guy a megastar like Pac or Mayweather. They wouldn't be able to keep casuals too enthralled to keep tuning in.

    The old countdown show would've been good for this, re-telling the story of the first fight and the controversy that emerged since, and some commentary from everyone involved.

    Wow. Will they break the 500,000 mark they last time had ?
    Will be nice to see someone besides Mayweather and Pacquiao on 24/7.
