I just watched the first Episode of Pac v Mosley Fight Camp 360 and liked it about 20 times more than ANY 24-7 i've seen... I had never even heard of Fight Camp 360 but I was impressed with it..
What was immediately apparent after watching it for a bit is that they keep it positive... They don't, or havn't yet, tried to add all this fake drama as a way to hype the fight.. The 24-7 for Pac v Margarito was just silly... A good half of 2 of the episodes was dedicated to selling us the idea that Pac wasn't focused, and everyone was worried he wouldn't be ready for the fight, and all of that should make us be more interested in the fight..
When really that subject was probably only 1% of the camp and of what the people around Pac were saying,,, the fact it was almost the main selling point of that whole fight lead up was just depressing in a way..
Fight Camp didn't exactly break any records for entertainment or anything new, but they showed a bit of everything... Not adding big drama background music for Roach stepping out of his house or cooking eggs... Just bits and pieces of their life.. Pac and Mosley having a bit of fun, doing a bit of training...
But the best part is it shows footage of the fighters previous fights... Something I thought 24-7 should have absolutely had..
Anyway, that's just my opinion... Others may like 24-7 more BECAUSE of all the drama they add to the month before the fight, where as 360 just keeps it light all the way through, but personally I was sick of the 24-7 recipe and this was a fresh upbeat change as far as i'm concerned...... Surely as it gets closer to the fight it'll build my excitement, but that happens regardless even without these lead up series...
