Not as good as 24/7 but still awesome, the Dallas stadium is awesome, they need to build a mega venue in vegas.
I liked it, its hard to fit everything like training, their views on each other, their history, recent achievements etc into one half hour show. They always do a good job and i dont understand why some dislike these, its a tv show about boxing you take what you can get! Its emotive and always stirs something up a bit ahead of the fight.
I can understand that there is a letdown from Pac-Mayweather not happening, but I can't understand why people are hating on this fight (unless you have some fanboy agenda that many have on boxing forums). Manny is fighting a top 5 welterweight and a guy who is very tough and underrated. If Clottey is trash then so is Berto, Bradley and anyone else outside of Floyd and Shane. If he gets criticized for fighting Clottey then he might as well retire.
i thought it was great, but selling clottey as the right opponent at this level of the game for pac is a hard sell. ppl will be watching in hopes too see pac loose or simply to see him in the ring.
This was an awful show. Usually these type of shows are meant to hype you up for the fight. They are meant to make the fight seem like it might be interesting. Usually these shows try to show how the underdog has a chance... these shows are designed to make you want to buy a PPV. This was less like a commercial, and more like those segments they use during PPVs to fill in the time gap between the main event and an under-card that wen too short. Aside form iforming people that the fight is taking place, this show was **** poor. But 24/7 has not been that good either. HBO needs to change up the formula for it's preview shows...perhaps they could emphasize the boxing aspect of up coming boxing fights. A quaint idea, but it just might work.
The PAc-Clottey 24/7 was an interesting watch. JC's trainer couldn't get a Visa, Pac eats a lot after burning off alot. I am not a fan of protein shakes/drinks so I feel for Pac since they are so nasty to drink. I haven't seen a bad 24/7 since I've been watching them. 24/7 never gets bland for me to watch.
