man this latest 24/7 has been really boring in my oppinion.the calzaghe jones one was way better.thoughts?
I saw the first one and tought it was luke warm OK, but can't be bothered watching the rest. If it's worse then the Jones v Calzaghe one it must be bad. :yikes
It is better than Jones-Calz but I think it has lost it's appeal...at least to me. It was very interresting when the first ever 24/7 came out but not anymore.
When they show DLH it's boring. The only bright spot is seeing Manny training because he trains like an animal and him having bets with his friends on who can lose the most weight as well as having an eating contest.
I think having Manny on there doing what he is doing makes viewers feel more in touch with him. I don't care much for watching Oscar and his pretty boy associates (Mario Lopez) hang out or get manicures, shock treatment or sit in hot tubs.
They should show more of DLH training. You can't get any more cliched or boring than listening to him speak, but watching fighters train for a fight is usually pretty interesting. HBO does a great job of producing this series. It is bull**** though how they're acting like DLH is going against the odds, "Oh, the old man can't pull the trigger". Pacquiao is the one facing the harder challenge, not DLH.
Still more fun than Jones/Calzaghe to be honest, that one was too cold, at least in this one there are some entertaining moments here and there.
I think Hopkins gave him the worst advice as well..."DO what he do...he throw punches like this *swings arms wildly* you gotta do that too" I personally think he has too many minds in one corner...he won't know what gameplan to go with in the end...he'll just do what he has to do to KO Manny and get beat up in the process...he'll pull it off...but look very sloppy doing it This episode was VERY boring...De La Hoya segments are lame...its more about his wife and kids then it is about his training...its good to show family segments but **** man idk...seeing him and his kid sport matching hats and **** doesnt make me think "Oh look...Oscar's a great dad" As opposed to Manny buying his wife a heart monitor and listening to the heart beat together...giving his people food on Thanksgiving...showing his parents religion...the praying sequences...I'm feeling, connecting, and rooting for Pacquiao more and more as the show progresses... This episode was the most boring...but as far as which was better between Jones-Calzaghe...its hard to say at this point...This series gets 4 episodes as opposed to just 3... I found the segments of Roy to be the best...he's quite the observational and wise character than most think of him to be...It was interesting to this from him... Well anyways...great show...lame episode...decent series
I'm find De La Hoya to be extremely gay with his words. It's good seeing Pac training. Overall, 3/10.
