    If I remember correctly,
    Either Al Haymon won the purse bid,,,

    Or gave Main Events an excellent offer,

    In which Kathy Duva turned down.?????

    Something like that, Krusher is a boss and I wish he would KO tha scumbag Adonis, but he did duck the bout

    yes, you're correct they did duck.
     
  3. They hurried up and signed a deal with HBO because Kathy doesn't have the money to beat Haymon at a purse bid. Her only star would be in the hands of the great one.

    They ducked it , sad but true , and i hate how Kovalev in every interview throw daggers at stevenson , your team ducked it so you STFU , i like kovalev much more then stevenson , but it is what it is.
    i dont care about the reasoning about contracts with hbo and what not , your team ducked == you STFU about the guy.

    You do not remember correctly.

    It wasn't an excellent offer.

    Duva called it an insult.

    Yes in my opinion, you can say this and that about different networks, but was Floyd not ducking when him and Pac were on different networks? I didn't really want to bring this up as you get all of the fan boy *******s again but its a double standard, just because one guy is hated and one isn't, it doesn't make the circumstances different.

    Kovalevs team ducked the fight. Had there reasons, im sure. As usual though boxing fans choose who they like to blame and because stevenson is disliked he gets the blame
