Do You Rely on HBO 24/7 To Decide Whether You're Going to Watch a Fight?

Interesting way to open a thread. Very "committal".

Listen to this guy, he knows all about commitment. He's fully committed to polishing Jr's ballsack. You really give it %110! Green K homie.

Um, er...THE TARGET AUDIENCE.

The 24/7 series isn't targeted for NSB posters. They already know the fighters and will buy the fight no matter what.

24/7 is targeted towards the casual/mainstream/non-fan.

A bit disheartening that you did not know that.

Remember, as an NSB type fan you have no idea how a casual fan interprets the series. So once again, your points are moot and you have failed.

but is a good way to get pump for the fight

I don't disagree at all with that.

Not to say Cotto vs Pac 24/7 (the 1st Episode lol) was the most entertaining (wasn't the worst by any means), but who's really relying on HBO to convince you to buy Cotto vs Pacquiao?

Considering that 24-7 is rather a new concept for HBO, I would have to say no.

But I don't care if the 24-7 series are good or not, I enjoy watching or listening about the fighters, their families and what ever.

You have to understand that Floyd fans are not cut from the same cloth as most of us, they are cut from a strange cloth called *****.

I disagree there are more casual fans here that think they are hordcore then actual hardcore fans.

The poster I was responding to was referring to truly casual fans. Not the kind that would register a username and password for a boxing forum.

That is not true at all just, there are more people here with casual tendencies then actual hard core fans.

Most peoples thoughts on here on boxing are laughable outside of the couple guys they know well, also hard core fans can appriciate (or at the very least understand) style they do not enjoy watching.

I used to think this place was full of hardcore fans, but I have come to realize while there are a decent ammount of hardcore fans there are way more casual fans here.

I do not think that matters jsut being a member here does not make someone a hardcore fan instantly. They may be on the way to being a hardcore fan but that does not mean they have reached that status.


Just reading on here to me I see more casual fans then people with real boxing knowledge. I see a lot of sheep/cookie cutter points of views as opposed to people who have really made up their own opinions on boxing matters.
