    Please refund everyone who bought that joke of a fight their 54.95. The undercard bouts looked fixed, and all that hype from DLH being "hungry" was bull**** -- the guy doesn't want to fight and who can blame him -- would you want to fight if you collected 30 million every time you stepped into a ring, win lose or draw?

    Pacman will either fight Hatton or Floyd. Floyd is the bigger fight, especially since he would be coming off a lay off of at least 16 months if they were to fight this spring. But Hatton is gaining steam as well.

    Big win for Pacman, but lets not get it twisted. DLH isn't DLH anymore. He was a little better against Floyd, but the fact of the matter is he's still a part time fighter. When PBF beat him that's all we heard. "Floyd beat an old, aging, part time fighter." Pacman does it and suddenly he's Henry Armstrong. People need to make up their minds.

    Bottom line -- a win is a win. Big props for Pacman. His future should be interesting.

    Pac-man's win is a big feat considering he was fighting at 130 as early as this spring. Floyd fought a De La Hoya when Floyd fought near that weight a few times. Not to mention he eeked out a decision while Manny blew Oscar's doors off

    The whole card could have been fixed for all we know. Juanma's fight, he didnt even land on teh guy. Resto didnt try. Lares put up the best fights and he was maybe the best actor.

    DLH? either he was terribly weight drained, mentally beaten after 2 rounds or he threw that fight.

    He was a human punchbag for the Pacman last night. He should just focus on promoting, his prowess is outside of the ring looking into it rather that boxing (sorry being a punchbag).

    i agree total waste. everything about the event was horrible from the price to the showcase fights which should never be on a ppv undercard and the main event that was good for 2 rounds until everyone relized that ODLH wasnt fighting. Lets hope boxing learns from this and makes quality ppv events. this is one of the worst i have ever seen

    In the UK we get it for $35 and we get Enzo Maccrinelli and Amir Khan thrown in (while on the free channel we had a good domestic card topped with Froch vs. Pascal)
