    Look at the judges

    At least two of them are on HBO's/TR's payroll. :patsch

    Lisa Giampa- Worked multiple HBO fights, and was a judge in TR's Macao cards multiple times

    Pat Russell is somewhat neutral. Don't know too much about him

    But the most alarming one of all

    MAX DELUCA

    1. Had Provodnikov winning 117-111
    2. Is Julie Lederman's BOYFRIEND
    3. Potential SON IN LAW for Harold.
    4. Very high probability that he is bought out by HBO.
    5. Has had some very dubious cards. Why he is still allowed to judge, we'll never know.

    Advice: Bet the farm on Vasyl. GRJ is in for a major robbery.

    Gary is in a unique position. The promotional company that has done his fights won the purse bid. However, since Russell is a Haymon fighter, he's on the outs with GBP. Meanwhile, GBP and Top Rank seem to be headed to some sort of joint venture. So Gary does not have the backing of the promtional company doing the fight and is getting less money despite him being rated higher than Loma and despite Loma's promotional company not winning the purse bid.

    The reason he is getting less money is because of sanctioning body rules regarding purse bids. GBP actually appealed it and lost IIRC. Nothing to do with being on "outs" with GBP.

    I never said it had anything to do with him being on the outs with GBP. I know why he's getting less money. The WBO has a rule where the foreign fighter gets the higher purse. I was merely pointing out that he's in a unique position where he's not only getting less money than the lower rated fighter in a purse bid, but also his promotional company is probably more closely aligned with his opponent than they are him.

    That's some dirty sh** and the fix is definitely in, but i still think Russell Jr will KO Loma.

    Who needs long arms when you are fighting an opponent with a dismal jab and falls inside to grab and hold all night? Seems to me, in that instance short arm have the advantage. :yep

    Not sure how much of an effect HBO will have on a Showtime card.
