    At least it has Floyd Sr.

    It won't be a snooze fest like the DLH-Pacquiao 24-7.

    It is far better with Floyd Jr. and Roger, though.

    The show is limited because they, obviously, cannot show much sparring, etc. So the show relies on storylines and persona. I think, as the other guy said, coming so soon after PAC-dlh, makes it feel like been here before. I think a compact hour would work well

    I think Floyd Sr is very entertaining. When Floyd jr. was putting the money in his mouth, that was over the top, and it felt like an act. I lost interest in Floyd's antics after that. But, Floyd Sr's poetic rhyming was great. Just like Ali, but with a little bit more class than Ali.

    I tell you, Floyd Sr might be the best trainer in all of boxing. There is just something about that guy, when you see him and hear him, I think you are witnessing a master of boxing.

    24/7 is a good show. Floyd Jr created impossibly high standards...Relative to a floyd 24-7, it's not entertaining. As a show on it's own it's very entertaining and often informative.

    I Will guarantee that the Hatton Vs. Pacquiao fight will be 100X more entertaining
    than Both of Floyd's FIGHTS that were on 24/7.
    (Which in the end is what counts.)
