I thought the Mayweather-Marquez undercard was actually really enjoyable. John-Juarez Katsidis-Escobedo The Cornelius Lock fight was entertaining while it lasted, plus Erislandy Lara was on the card. The Pac/Cotto card sucked though.
the undercard should have roy jones vs b-hop on it but noo they make it a piece of **** main event ppv.the first ever fight being held at cowboys stadium should have an action packed card but instead it's full of shitty matchups and a main event that is only getting hype because pac is in it..they could've waited one week and put alexander vs urango on there,it would make things way better
Can you give me some recent undercards in title fights thats better? Soto-Diaz is a very good fight in its own right, both top LW contenders and a very good scrap. Gomez-Castillo are 2 names, albeit shot and not very good.
the john-juarez fight had me ready for bed(incredibly boring) then mayweather-marquez had me down for the count by the 7th round
It's a ****ing Top Rank fight, they always put some shitty fights before the main event. But at least we won't get ****ing Chavez jr's boring ass before the main event/
Yeah, I may have exaggerated a bit by calling it the worst in recent memory but It's a major, MAJOR disappointment.
It's a low name value, high action undercard. Ideally, you'd like more intriguing/important matchups, but the fights are likely to be pretty entertaining, so I don't see any reason to hate on it. There aren't many stacked undercards for big events these days.
Mayweather vs DLH & Hatton Pac vs DLH, Hatton and to a lesser extent vs Cotto Those were worse then this, but that's not saying much, just goes to show how short sighted promoters are. They could have created new stars on these undercards by placing some of their best prospects in competitive matches. Why isn't Donaire fighting Montiel or something on this card...oh yeah i'm sure that Top Rank is raking in the cash with the 'Pinoy Power' blockbuster PPVs. Mayweather vs Marquez was solid, and that was only because everybody thought that the PPV would bomb so they reinforced the card.
