    Didn't HBO say, however, that they did 24/7 because PBF was the main focus of the footage and that they don't do it for other fights; they just simply do "Countdown's"?

    That's the point. Most Americans haven't see sh*t about Calzaghe and that would only help the publicity for this fight.

    There isn't much to see. "When I beat Lacy..."

    Again, you're missing the point. It doesn't matter if he's boring. HBO can make it interesting. The fact is that few Americans know about Calzaghe. The exposure alone will get more people to watch. HBO does a fabulous job of hyping fights up. Did you see the 24/7 for DLH/PBF and PBF/Hatton? If you watched those those and weren't excited, somethings wrong with you as a boxing fan. Leave it to HBO to make it enticing and entertaining. But it should be done.

    DLH-PBF 24/7 was terrible. The best bit was probably Mosley's impressions.

    Hatton and Mayweather are great personalities though.

    Calzaghe is seriously boring. Mind numbingly so. HBO will have to get a lookalike in and tell him to act some scenes to make him entertaining.

    HBO could keep a running counter at the bottom of the screen for every one of Calzaghe's "at the end of day"s

    Will they put subtitles on for Enzo? Enzo and Don King should fight instead.
