does it seem like ODLH and PACMAN are gettin' kinda touchy, feely on this world promotional tour? It doesn't feel right to me. Its like Golden Boy Promotions is tryin' to milk this thing for as much pay per view bucks as it can. It more like hands across America than hype for a super-bout. Whats next PAC and DLH holding hands singing "We Ae the World?" Am I paranoid or does anytbody get this?
No, you're right on the money. And it was the same thing AFTER DLH-Hopkins... Makes you realize how PBF was a realer individual not to let desire for money get in the way of wanting to win.
I haven't really been watching the tour. I can't imagine it being that compelling... just both men promising and guaranteeing victory, etc..
I am looking forward to this fight. I just hope it lives up to the hype. Oscar's fight with floyd was a disappointment.
catch the highlights, New York now Chicago. Pacman's talking the rest fo the world. Are they gonna fight to a predetermined draw?
I haven't paid any attention to the promotion for this fight. It is a glorified exhibition fight. At this time, I don't plan on spending my hard-earned dollars to watch it. So to hear that the whole promotional campaign seems a little too friendly doesn't surprise me. These guys have no genuine venom for each other. They should be smiling, because their bank accounts are about to ge a whole lot fatter.
A few build ups to big fights recently have been described as a "love fest" as both fighter's aren't bad mouthing each other and showing due respect. I have no problem with this. Build up to fights in years back were apparently very cordial. You don't have to hate your opponent to be able to unleash hell on him. It makes a change to the false bravado we see in a lot of modern day build ups and are then left dissappointed when both participants who apparently want to kill each other instead tickle each other for 12 dull rounds.
