    1. fire jim, larry, lederman.

    2. hire bobby czyz.

    3. get rid of compubox.

    4. hire a real matchmaker.

    5. stop hiring ppl that dksab.

    6. stop trying to manufacture fighters and just give us quality match ups.

    7. stop creating controversy where there is none. (step 1 kind of does this)

    8. stop promising figthers dates for taking chances.

    9. give us the opportunity to watch fights with just the crowd/ring noise.

    10. fire jim, larry, lederman.

    #6 is your only valid answer. Hype Jobs being shoved down our throats time and time again even after they have been exposed is THE major problem with HBO Boxing.

    Golden Boy put on good competitive shows. It's just Top Rank that shits on fight fan's intelligence.

    :lol: It's all a part of the package. I still enjoy the HBO ensemble. I know they are biased and there is an agenda when watching, but I enjoy all aspects of it. They're part of the show to me and don't influence this fans' point of view.

    Oh, and what I would like to see would be more WCB and BAD fight nights and less PPV events.

    Fire Steward and replace him with RJJ
    Put Merchant and Ledderman out to pasture
    Stop trying to manufacture stars
