    I just dont get the need. Its actually a hindrance. There are already enough camera whores. We dont need them being worried that their coverage is adequate for a playback.
    I think it is a Big Al Haymon thing. He fancy himself an innovator or at least putting as much tecknology to use as possible to make the boxing experience more enjoyable for the fans.

    Selby was not top of his game, he did struggle he won but it's how it goes, the big upset
    was Devon Alexander he got dragged into a brawl and lost, were does he go from here I
    wonder, well done Martinez he deserved that win.

    Boxers with world titles shouldn't be choosing old shot boxers like Montiel as opponents.

    Fernando Montiel's best was between 7 and 10 years ago when he fought at super flyweight.

    And I remember he seemed small even for bantamweight when he fought Donaire.

    Selby won the fight 8-4 I thought. I thought he clearly won a pretty competitive fight.

    I just fast forwarded the Alexander fight after the 6th. It was so boring and was clear to me that Devon is completely done as a top fighter. I don't know what he was doing in there. He never fights like that.

    If Haymon wants to make boxing enjoyable then keep Alexander out of the main event Man, I turned it off and made tacos. Glad Martinez got the win, sounds like he earned it.

    Ref working the camera and being made a part of the show has always bugged me. Cortez was horrible with it, right down to his catch phrase "I'm fair but I'm firm" and constant interference for the sake of being seen. Mercante Jr also. Refs need to be as invisible as possible and leave the spotlight to the actual athletes in there being punched in the mouth trying to earn a name.
