They couldnt get Guerrero back in there and just make it a double header on hbo?

never was interested in this match-up but do you really think they would fake an injury just to cancel this fight cos of low sales?Quote:

That is what exactly GBP did. It's either that, or JMM simply chickened out coz it was high risk - low reward for him.Quote:

To question JMM's heart is the most stupid thing I've seen written in a while. Pac fans should know this of all people ;) As for the second theory,well it's more viable that the show was called off because tickets were not selling but I still don't buy that especially in the day and age where Ponce De Leon v Al Seeger is PPV if I remember correctly!
Ricardo Lois must be affected by what he had read before. I still give Marquez the benefit of the doubt. This is a case of protecting the health of a boxer. The writer is insinuating us that Marquez fights purely for money without even researching on the real situation of Marquez.Quote:

Hey booze,My passion and dedication to this sport over whelms my need and desire to impress with my clerical skills,so keep your personal smirks of criticism to your self.I know exactly who is at fault and how the networks treat boxing like a third cousin as I have spent my years sincethe The Inception Of Top Rank &espn decline into the side show it is todayIts not only Nascar(touched a soft spot did I? :'()its ncaa,baseball,nba,and yes I have seen entire friday night shows sidelined for BOWLING.Quote:

Fair play Jeff. The bottom line is that boxing is no longer a priority to ESPN...and we can both agree that this is a shame. But they won't spend any money for fights anyway so I don't see the big deal.....they are corporate dicks with no love for the pugilist.
Fair enough,gentlemens agreement.There was a Time when espn was pure gold as far as boxing.Its just a slap to us fans which should come as no surprise.I do not know about weekly shows outside of the U.S but down here we had 3 solid shows that were pretty much EVERY week.USA tuesday night fights(they sold out for wrestling,dog shows And tennis),Fight night at the forum(some of the best talent in the last decade or so started there)& the last standing is ESPN ,now THat The NFL is There,thats the last nail in the coffin.They Could at least treat these fighters and fans with respect as they open the door for them.Quote:
