    To promote FMJ-Cotto, HBO had a contest on FB. The fans got to chose a single fight that would be put on HBO on Demand. Cotto's fight with Mosley got the most votes, and is now on demand, and Mayweather's fight with Corrales got the most votes, and is on demand.

    Boning someone's limb.


    Why have I never heard of this?


    You hear of all kinds of evil things that people do to each other, but I can't say I remember reading about someone having their leg or arm boned out (de-boned, whatever).


    Imagine that. Having a leg without a shin bone. Or the reverse, as in having the bone but no muscle from the knee to ankle. Would be pretty horrible.

    Hannibal was more G than Pompey could ever hope to have been.:bart

    Oh, and the OP was asking which fights you would pick for the fighters listed in order to showcase what they were capable of doing as a way to hype an upcoming fight. Apparently, HBO puts this decision in the hands of its viewers.

    It's actually a good question
