Today's special, short and sweet edition of Bad Left Hook Radio is just the first in a series of podcasts I'll be doing this week on the Mayweather vs Ortiz card. Today's edition focuses on the promotion of the fight, and how the promised big events from HBO and Time Warner may or may not have really panned out or become anything significant, including TV spots on Conan O'Brien's show with Mayweather, and Piers Morgan's show with Ortiz and Oscar de la Hoya.
Also, a few thoughts on Chad Dawson's bizarre decision to part ways with Emanuel Steward just a month before the biggest fight of his professional career, and what this could mean for Dawson not just going into the fight with light heavyweight world champion Bernard Hopkins, but what it could mean for the rest of his career.
We'll have another couple of shows coming your way this week, starting tomorrow with a look at the Mayweather vs Ortiz undercard featuring Erik Morales and Saul "Canelo" Alvarez.
