Goosen/Williams are going to blow it AGAIN

There was a time when I thought Pavlik/Wright was one of the best fights we could see around the weight. That time has clearly passed.

 

yes it has, And i will admit that Pav has the tools and size to beat Winky at any point in his career.

 

I said equal Money to what they offered Pavlik for the Sturm fight, 2mil.

 

I want to see paul & pavlik...

but lets say the fight didnt happen

i wouldnt mind seeing paul fight dzinzurik either.. i just want paul to obliterate him already..... and pavlik vs winky would be interesting as well

by paul vs pavlik not occuring.... boxing gets 2 good fights for the price of one.. and paul & pavlik would probably end up fighting after anyways

 

Anyways is this fight announced yet?

WWM said it'd be announced by Friday and I'll admit to being completely out of the loop on the Pav/Williams negotations.

So where's it at fellas?

 

Why is it you refuse to believe it ain't final till it's final? ONE LAST TIME. These things/dates change ALL THE TIME. It wouldn't be the first or last time HBO has made someone change a date.

 

between today and wednesday itll be signed

 

Come on WMM, Can we get a solid deadline for once

Anyways what's the current hold up?

 

i never actually "knew" a real date... but i knew the negotiating period would take a while...

they are ironing out $ stuff.... goosen wants like 50% of everything and arum dont want to give all that up basically... its a lot more technical than that... i just gave the cliff notes version

 

I know ya didn't. You just seemed awfully confident it'd be done by now. Had to rub it in

So basically we're still at a standstill over the gate revenue and what not. Wondrous.

 

nah revenue would be in Atlantic City....

check the scene of boxing... they have pretty in depth commentary on it

 

If you had to give a percentage, how close is it to actually getting off the ground?

 

I was told "very close".

 

i mean... every day they talk about it getting closer & closer to being done.... and its not like the negotiations are going nowhere..... they are both just edging everything up....

itll be done soon

i guess 75% maybe

 

Just like Kelly's 3-fight HBO deal isn't final?













i'm j/k.

let go i know what you mean.
