Alright guys, I was wondering if HBO would be showing classic bouts for Manny and Tim. I checked the schedule, and they happen to be showing Pacquiao/Barrera, followed the recent rubber match with Marquez. As for Timmy, I dont see SHIT on the schedule after searching.
How jacked up is that? I mean they could at least show the Alexander, Abregu (sp), or his recent bout with Casamayor. Were these bouts considered classic? Not really, but damn, at least act like Manny has an opponent for the 9th. I dont have my On Demand stuff hooked up (thanks DirecTV), but if somebody could, please check and see if any prior Bradley bouts will be shown. |

What classics do Bradley have?
I removed Showtime and HBO from my direct tv package. I will probably have them added back so I can see that Showtime card this weekend. When trying to save money goes wrong This post has been edited by BigFightFan: May 31 2012, 02:20 PM |

As for Bradley, I am with professor on that one. Bradley/Witter would be a good fight to show, but it's not possible. Casamayor doesn't really tell much about Bradley, so I would vote for Alexander fight. Headbutts all over, but he would have won either way. |

I've been watching some previous Pac bouts on T.V today and they showed Marquez/Pac II. AGAIN, Marquez won that bout....crazy, crazy, crazy.

if they show any of bradley's hbo fights they would risk losing buyers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

They did the same for Mayweather/Cotto. They showed Mayweather vs Corales but nothing for Cotto who has plenty of classics. But they did at least have a Cotto's greatest hits....Bradley was on showtime for his best fights.

When trying to save money goes wrong When trying to save a customer goes wrong, should be DirecTV's issue. I have no problem with them, in fact, its the best cable I've ever had. No way in the world they should've allowed you to get off the phone before offering you something and not letting you drop those premiums. When all else fails and you want to get your money's worth...just attempt to cancel their services. Trust me, it ALWAYS works. That's how I STILL have all of my premium channels...I tried to drop all but two of them (HBO & Showtime), and they ended up giving me two more premiums for the price of one, for another 6 months. Try it... QUOTE (mitukczuk @ May 31 2012, 04:47 PM) Casamayor doesn't really tell much about Bradley, so I would vote for Alexander fight. Headbutts all over, but he would have won either way. I think they should show his bout with Alexander, though it wasn't all that great. I mean seriously, they'll get to see him rough up a southpaw and make him quit. They showed this guy no respect with this though. QUOTE (Thickback @ Jun 1 2012, 10:18 AM) They did the same for Mayweather/Cotto. They showed Mayweather vs Corales but nothing for Cotto who has plenty of classics. They actually showed Cotto vs Mosley, which was Miguel's only notable win up the Mayweather fight. |
