    Is it me or do the fights that they put on PBC just seem random as hell?

    They have:

    Porter v Broner
    Thurman v Collozo
    Malignaggi v Garica

    Would it not make more sense to do:

    Porter v Thurman in a legit welterweight contest
    Garcia v Broner at 140 or somehwere between that and 147
    Malignaggi v Collozo in Brooklyn?

    :think

    If it's happening at the same time as Lemieux v N'Jikam I doubt I'll watch it, I wouldn't be suprised at all if it's awful to watch and I think a DQ is a real possibility.

    Because promoters try to make as much money as possible not build their fighters as much respect as possible.

    For the record, I'm going to be making a RBR thread for Lemieux vs. N'Dam on Fox Sports 2 as well, but not for Ward vs. Smith on BET.

    My thoughts on Broner vs. Porter are well known: I dislike both fighters, and believe the winner is going to receive undue hype, and whether either of them ever gets another world title belt or not they will both always lack the ring IQ needed to achieve consistency or beat any wide variety of styles (outside what's tailor made for them) at the elite level. Even so, I'm prioritizing this over the Ward vs. Smith farce.

    I mean, hell, I even made a thread for Lamour vs. Findley (only televised on a local news station in rural Maine and streamed on their website) and that will be more of a priority for me, as long as its main event doesn't conflict with Broner vs. Porter or Lemieux vs. N'Dam - but seriously fuck that nonsense Roc Nation is staging on BET. They may as well have Maidana vs. Salka as co-main. :!:

    :good A double brutal career ending KO would be a satisfying conclusion.

    Porter is the sweetest seeming guy, how could anyone not root for him over Broner's pompous ass.

    Khan Mayweather falls through then we have a good chance at the end of the year seeing Khan face the winner of these two...or cherry pick Guerrero. Also concerned Floyd might face Porter if Shawn wins tonight...would be a more dominant Brook repeat.

    Bet AB calls out Khan if he wins tonight :yep

    Phil Le Greco...

    Anyone notice that...

    He looks a lot like David Lemieux?

    And...

    He's kind of hot?

    :love

    (absolutely no gaymo) :oops:

    I don't like his PED use. He nearly killed Paulie.

    Although, he's the lesser of two evils here.
