Whattttt??? Marquez vs Fedchenko Rios vs Abril Alvarado vs Herrera Gesta vs TBA Omotoso vs TBA I could see this as some sort of independent ppv show but it seems very weak to be an HBO PPV. We may have some great fights, or not, but is this thing going to sell? boxing is short on big stars, they still want to do their ppv's, but they ought to load the card to the hilt, give me twelve interesting fights. A PPV like this is a boxing enthusiasts card and would become more attractive if they had more interesting and competitive matches on it. Decent fighters they could add to the card and get on the cheap. Fedchenko is the headliner's opponent in an HBO PPV!! Check out his list of opponents :rofl How much will this sell? Will it bring a big latino market with Rios and Marquez?
What i am saying is give me MORE of these level (headliner on paper a D level fight, rios fight a B) of fights if that is all the card has, if that is all you are giving me give me a dozen fights.
dont u remember mosley vs. mora ... and morales vs. maidana (think that was a ppv). sad state of boxing.
HBO is simply distributing it with Top Rank covering all of the costs. HBO did not want to pay for these fights or show them on their regular network.
this. calm down, HBO took the Rios fight off the network when Gamboa bailed so Top Rank is distributing it with an HBO header
This is pathetic... We could of got Rios-Gamboa for free! Now we have to pay for this ****.. I think i'll pass. I'll tune in to IB's RBR! :bbb :yep
