    This.

    Let's wait and see if CBS is is actually going to DO everything stated in that press release to push this fight.

    Wouldn't be the first time a media conglom 'promised' big things only to not follow through or bail when the financial commitment stops making sense.

    Arum wouldn't jump off the HBO ship if all he got from CBS were rosy promises. he has been in the business for too long now to make that mistake. Hauser said Arum made sure the commitments were written down into contractual obligations

    you think showing four pac-mosley documentaries on CBS spot, or pac-mosley ads on the NCAA can't be put into contract? :-(

    Say what you want about Arum, but there's a reason he's the best promoter today.
