    I think all of them are but you never know with HBO. They didnt even want to do a countdown show for Cotto/Margarito fight.

    Why would you say all of them? I would say none of them... I imagine if they did 1 out of 3 it would be Casa-JMM because its a PPV

    Very true, I mean I was unimpressed when I watched him on the undercard of hatton in manchester. He was more concerned about his hair than ndou.

    Diaz and Kats is worth a PPV thats for sure... i dont know why blokes like mayweather get a fukin 24/7 an rjj and calzaghe do... boring fighter in floyd (i love boxing and i love watching his skill but im think in terms of general fan) and in rjj and calzaghe u got 2 guys on their way out... why not promote the **** out of guys like kats diaz pavlik margarito cotto e.t.c... if boxing shows the general public and sports fan these guys instead of shoving hoya and mayweather down their throats the sport would be better off

    I agree, boxing needs to promote their fun to watch fighters and keep those boring ass Hopkins, Mayweather, Wright etc. fights under wraps.

    I guess for the same reasons that Ring Magazine (last issue) graded Oscar higher than any other "All Star Boxer". They even gave him an A for improvement potential where as Margarito got like straight B-.

    Oscar also has a close partner that has a monopoly on many of the best stadiums and arenas.
