It's in the title HBO and it appears Sky also. Replays on Sunday morning HBO also.

Big disappointment with co main event being totally scrapped at last minute. #1 ranked..numero uno..140lb Antonio Orozco was set to face Roberto Ortiz but both came in overweight! FFS how and why does this happen so often now and how do you NOT know in Orozcos case that you are seven pounds over It's beyond unprofessional and a helluva way to blow prime network exposure.

the cynical fight fan in me says someone got another offer. Ok maybe he's just a fat slacker . Plenty of room for replay of Golovkin vs Canelo now is anyone wants to stomach that pill again. I finally get to see the fight.
It happens so often now because people realized how much of an advantage it is to become really good at cutting weight.

Years ago people trained to make weight. Nobody wants to make weight now. They want to be far bigger than the weight, cut weight, pile it all back on immediately.

Think of Brook/Spence and how often those two talked about how big they are. Because they are 175-180 between fights. They are 147 for 20 minutes 30 hours before they fight.
