    You are right about the stacked cards and the fact that Orlando Cruz will be on the Bradley fight show how low the game done sunk. He also did find ways to get boxers huge paydays. But by putting boxing behind a pay wall he turned off fans and hurt boxing, I'm okay with paying but it went to far.

    Great fights can be made now but they are not due to personality clashes between mainly ODH and Arum. King would not care as long as it made the most amount of money. Think of the great fights we have lost? Manny v Pacquiau is the biggest.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Agreed

    Mares vs Donaire and Mikey

    Rios vs Lucas

    Broner vs Crawford

    Rigo vs Santa Cruz

    Manny vs Golden Boy welters

    Alvarado vs Danny

    Greed is good it gives us the fights we want but Bob has 200 million in the bank and sees no reason to put his ego aside to make more.
