    ...THEY ARE NOT GETTING MY MONEY, especially for this ****:

    Manny Pacquiao (50-3-2) vs. Joshua Clottey (35-3)
    Humberto Soto (50-7-2) vs. David Diaz (35-2-1)
    This content is protected
    Alfonso Gomez (21-4-2) vs. Jose Luis Castillo (60-9-1)
    John Duddy (28-1) vs. Michael Medina (23-1-2)
    Salvador Sanchez (18-3-2) vs. TBA
    Roberto Marroquin (12-0) vs. TBA

    I'll still watch (for free)...But Bob Arum is not getting one red cent from me for this Line-up!!!!

    It is terrible.

    Its a bit like the Cotto Pac card - Substitue Top Rank house boy JCC Jnr for Top Rank House Boy Duddy and then throw in Gomez "The Public liked me in the Conteder" vs Ye Olde lightweight and the whole thing stinks.

    Boxing undercards make the case for MMA more and more often. At least you can buy the UFC cards on DVD within a couple of months in pristine quality.

    Agreed. That is one poor undercard. Soto/Diaz wouldn't be a suitable HBO Boxing After Dark headliner, but it's the main supporting bout on a 50 buck pay per view? No way I'm paying for this. The Pac/Cotto undercard was better than this one.

    It seems to have become the norm now that undercards are a pile of wank.

    Yea, not that good, but is anybody really surprised? I'll of course watch it live, but I defo won't buy it.

    The May 1st undercard from GBP has potential to be pretty good. Saul Alverez and Danny Jacobs are fighting TBA. So, it might be pretty good if they fight some live opponents.

    Bob thinks that holding the fight at Dallas Stadium is enough to fool most people. Not this sucker.

    Yeah, it makes me miss those stacked Don King cards that he used to put on PPV in the 90's.

    Hey, you know what? if you don't like the undercard that Big Bob gave you, you can just go **** yourselves.

    OK. I'm assuming Diaz is a draw in Texas?

    Only if the fans are fooled into thinking it's Juan Diaz. David was born and lives in Chicago.
