    He did this to screw HBO more than anything, not out of some desire to save boxing. I'm glad you think Arum is so well intentioned, but it's sadly not the case.

    We'll see after this fight if he continues this, as the promotion has been lame at best. Even die hard Pac fans agree.

    Arum is out for his own best interests, not the best interests of boxing.

    The promotion is indeed lame. Arum boasted how this would be such a huge promotion reaching out to over 100 million homes, yet i'm yet to see once episode of 360 on cbs.

    The first one was on CBS at 12 noon a few weeks back. But the schedule of the rest of the episodes is strange, and the fightcamp 360 itself has been really, really boring.

    It's had none of the juice that the 24/7's had, even the ones with Pac. It seems like, fore the national audience, they want to try show everything as running smoothly with no speedbumps, hence none of the infighting and "Manny's not taking training" seriously stuff not being shown this time.

    It's all too clean and proper to be engaging at all, and I think even casual fans will be bored.

    I think it is just a case of the fact that you are the ESB lepper, and that nobody likes you on here :lol:
