the first 2 fights on HBO'S card were terrible

Because you had it on that channel...

 

Couldn't watch the 1st fight because I was literally asleep. Glad I woke up for the next 2 though because they were decent. I enjoyed the main event. Always fun to see a hype machine get knocked out.

 

quit bitching troll. its boxing. hit and miss. you expect gatti-ward every time you tune in?

 

I actually enjoyed the first fight. Miguel Vazquez has no power and no speed but he dose so many little things that are hard to notice that make him a very skilled fighter.
That said he is not a TV friendly fighter.

 

because they don't know how to match fights like Showtime does.

Showtime is miles ahead of HBO right now.

 

:deal thank you. Tired of These casual fans trolling around

 

None of the fights was bad IMO. The first one had a nice contrast in styles. The second was a slugfest and the main event was action packed. Decent night of fights in my opinion.

 

true dat.

Those poor judges - they didn't even get to turn in their pre-filled out cards !

 

Honestly, he has a point. With all the great, competitive fights that can be made with HBO's budget and clout, it was really a low point for a Boxing After Dark telecast. The first two fights had literally no intrigue or drama about them, the crowd was ****ing terrible and only contributed the lackluster atmosphere.

 

i turned it off halfway through the second fight because i started falling asleep. this topic actually reminded that i need to finish watching it.

 

The second fight? No you really don't.

 

I fell to sleep halfway through the first fight, and woke up to see Abregu knock a ***** out. So that was fun. I kinda agree though, all in all it was a pretty lacklustre night, the crowd seemed dead.

 

First two fights were awful. Like someone said above, it's fun watching a hype-job get knocked out.
