    I thought they had something similar on showtime before called staredown.

    yea I remember it now why did they stop doing it?

    maybe something to do with expenses because it really helps promote the fight

    Who knows. I think maybe they didn't want to copy HBO.

    Haye vs Klitchko was fantastic.
    And i loved Pascal and Hopkins.
    But quite a few have been boring.

    It would be a co promotion I'm sure they would do it. My only gripe with it are the goofy way they sit on the seats.

    Man, why can't you stick to one user name duck_master??

    I think they're dope when the two guys can actually speak the same language, preferably English. When there has to be translators involved in the mix it just seems like role play in language learning in school.

    dont think much really.....I'm of the opinion that sometimes, and I dont mean to generalise, people like or dislike boxers more on what they do or say outside the ring as opposed to what they actually do in it.
