    Fight Camp 360 all day long for me. I like the way it just shows the fighters as in they really are in camp and the meetings with the promoters and Herschmann, always nearly kicks off between someone and you can tell its not staged. Where as 24/7 you have Pacquiao shadow boxing on the roof of a buiding :huh, very hollywood feel to the whole thing. I actually gave Hatton a chance after gettin into that series in the Mayweather fight,oh the shame :oops:..

    24/7 is solely a 30 minute PPV commercial aimed at the casuals, which means us boxing heads were eventually gonna get bored with it. Fight camp can go a little deeper and has more to play with, with all the fighters, promoters, looking back at other fights in the tourney etc. Plus it's still new, there's no fatigue with it yet.

    Fight camp 360 easy. 24/7 is getting boring now. Same sort of **** all the time. I'm surprised they even made a 24/7 for the Pacquiao Margarito fight.

    24/7 for floyd vs dlh/hatton were the best, the jones vs calzaghe one was the shittest, then the pacquiao vs hatton/de la hoya was ok, but other than that its been ****.

    i was expecting this one to be good but so far its been ****.

    The best 24/7 was Hatton vs Mayweather, because it showed the contrast between the two at the time.

    Mayweather was (and is) 100% up himself and thinks he's a god, Hatton at the time was a very humble lad who surrounded himself with people that genuinely cared about him and had been with a long time.

    The whole production was brilliant.

    Since then they've gone steadily downhill for me.

    Yeah, even though I can't stand the *******, Floyd sr makes 24/7 more interesting. I don't care about lil Floyd with his gay **** like "I'm the cash cow baby, I'm a dog I'm a gorilla", but the old man is ****in funny.

    "He paid me more den you aksed him for, he paid me more than you aksed him for!"

    and Roger with his "If I hit you, der should be sum kind of poof. I don't see no boozes you on so where da poof?":rofl

    Has Bernard Hopkins ever been on a 24/7? That would be good.

    To be honest, I think a reality show with Floyd senior and Roger would have gone down a storm had one been made. Obviously not on HBO, but on some cheaper channel that has all sorts of programmes like that. Literally just them sat around talking for half an hour would be hilarious. You'd need subtitles, natch but it would be ace.:good

    Get jeff and Floyd jnr on occasionally and it'd be a ratings winner.

    24/7 is boring cause its the same faces on it all the time. It would be refreshing if they picked some new people to focus on and they could possibly build up some new stars for the future on it. The exposure for these fights would do the boxers some good although some of them are older now.

    Williams V Martinez
    Marquez V Katsidis
    Lopez V Marquez
    Khan V Maidana
    Hopkins V Pascal

    obviously theyd have to be fighting on HBO and i dont know which ones are living in England
