    1. Manny is boring as fuck.

    2. Last time Showtime made "All Access," Floyd ended up in front of the Nevada Athletic Commission saying the show was a load of fake bollocks.
    Lol. I was thinking along the same lines.

    Manny's showboat is dead in the water. Floyd's is puttering along sedately.

    It seems like the media just can't stir anything up. Poor bastards must be going crazy trying to figure out what they're doing wrong.

    When they made the fight both networks decided not to bother. The fight would sell itself was the reasoning.

    Showtime could have made a show and shown it on CBS which is free-to-air network TV in the States. HBO could have made a show and shown it on CNN which most Americans have. If there was ever a fight that non-boxing people might have been interested in and shelled for the PPV it's this one but for some inexplicable reason the networks didn't bother. Watch HBO shell out for the future Manny-Crawford 24/7 (or a fight just as dire).

    Still I would enjoy some sort of background program on the fighter which would show some material of pre fight training and such

    Hbo will do a special on Manny and showtime is doing one on floyd.

    Anyone involved in this fights promotion would be negligent not to take/make every opportunity to sell this fight. Justin Beiber face is another demographic. Most people thatby this fight aren't even casual fan. More like bandwagon fans. While the fight has the recipt base, to make it palettable a chef's touch gives it that desiable tease look. We are all hoping for a flavor that brings enjoyment. While the word is out, not everyone will pay to get inside. Mc Donalds is not the best burger in town, yet they sell more than anyone.
