Default HBO2 Series set to debut with Orlando Del Valle vs. Vic Darchinyan, Sept. 29.

According to The Scene, HBO2's new series will kick off September 29th with Orlando Del Valle facing Vic Darchinyan in the main event, along with Edwin Rodriguez and Thomas Oosthuizen in seperate bouts.


This is good news. It's supposed to be HBO's equivalent to Shobox.

Interesting. Has HBO ever featured anything with Vic? What's going on between him and Showtime, I wonder.

Sweet card.

Oosthuizen is fighting the guy who recently knocked out Andrade.

Based on Vic's form against Yamanaka, I actually give Orlandito an excellent chance to collect his name as a trophy.

WTF are you talking about?

HBO2 has a corresponding HD channel, as does the entire HBO family of networks.

HBO -> HBO HD
HBO2 -> HBO2 HD
HBO Family -> HBO Family HD
HBO Signature -> HBO Signature HD
HBO Latino -> HBO Latino HD

VD (heh heh heh) really doesn't have much left in him, I don't think. I wonder what his situation is, as far as his financial stability.

No, you're full of shit. I have Comcast.

On Comcast, every single HBO channel has a corresponding HD channel. Check your lineup.

No, not as a pro. He did have an amateur fight (1998 I believe) that aired on HBO against Roberto Benitez. Roy Jones called him "Darcheeyun."

Same with Dish Network. Only there's no HD channel for my HBO2 West.

I know Vic, he's a killer machine, but Orlandito? Never seen him fight. If those donkeys are relying to run around like yamanaka and Moreno did, then this fight is going to end in another ****ed up mess. With Vic you have to stand in the pocket and exchange. That's what Vic is made of, to fight like a varrior, not runner like a scared fox on the run. If Orlandito has the nuts, then he'll make a good fight with Vic. We all know that Vic is the raging bull, he's the wild beast in the ring. He comes to fight not sissy around like a cat.

Damn on the site it says HBO2HD is on channel 1914, I didn't even know it went above 999

Edit: Yeah I checked, it only goes up to 980 (ESPN3D)

As far as I'm concerned, HBO only has one HD channel and HBO2 is not it.
