Five For Fighting
Five young fighters HBO, Showtime and Epix should get behind:

-Robert Helenius, heavyweight: A Klitschko-sized heavyweight with good skills and better punching power? Talk about no-brainers.

-Gary Russell Jr., featherweight: Bob Arum called Russell "another Al Haymon creation." If that's true, the lightning fast Russell is a pretty good creation.

-Marius Wach, heavyweight: Another big, rangy heavyweight with power -- witness Wach's one-punch knockout of Kevin McBride -- who could be a candidate to face one of the Klitschkos next year.

-Tyson Fury, heavyweight: Like Wach, but better.

-Mikey Garcia, featherweight: The younger brother of trainers Robert and Danny Garcia, Mikey is another up-and-coming featherweight in a loaded division.

HBO is already behind Garica and Russell. Those other 3 dudes are bums, Euro product.

Well known fact Mannix doesn't know shit about boxing. Him along with Iole are the clowns that kept saying Martinez knocked Williams out with a "left hook."

Mannix is a NBA guy. I don't get it either. WB which owns HBO owns SI. So you'd think they'd support a sport that their pay channel exslusively covers.

Helenius isn't a bum. He has alot of potential.

Helenius is 27 and is fighting HW zombies

I dont see much potential
