Are they determined to water Canelo-Cotto PPV down with a stinker?

    First dull as dishwater Ward was booked to fight (but pulled out worried about drug testing outside of his hometown) then they add Rigondeaux on the card. :tired:tired


    Ward & Rigondeaux belong on BET, not HBO PPV.

    Whos Rigo supposed to fight? I would have thought they would have bumped Caballero-Haskins to the main card...:conf

    Miura vs Vargas is a real fight. Might end up being the best fight on the card

    Drian Francisco

    Caballero v Haskins is a good fight so it may persuade some last minute buys once people get in the mood. Similar in a way to the Mayweather v Maidana II card when they but Soto v Molina on the free version, rather than sending people to sleep before the card started with Vazquez v Bey

    Not a bad opponent at a weeks notice, Drian was a decent fighter a few years back. It's his opponent that's the problem. :yep

    That in fairness is the only disgraceful stain on his resume. Avalos & Koietgym are decent fighters and they was reasonably close loses.

    Plus he can punch a bit so hopefully he shatters Rigo's glass jaw and his fanboys stop acting like it's his god given right to headline PPV's

    He's not an ATG but he is USA's best jr Flyweight, but in typical American fashion he got his excreatory opening handed to him by one of Britain's best

    Cause its a ****py channel for ****py people.

    Also for the record, I love watching Rigo, but he is pure **** for PPV.

    I like watching his fights on youtube, seeing how he uses his skills, studying them... But they suck to watch with my casual friends.
