I'm sorry your right. HBO will not pay for Pav versus a boxer with no threat to hurt him. What fight has endered Sturm to the American Public that they are going to pay big bucks for Pavlik - Sturm?
At the start of the interview Pavlik said: He should have just shut up after that. If he has no interest at fight at SWM, then fine. But don't go off on a tirade that makes you look bitter.
Personally I have NO ****ING IDEA why Pavlik would sing the praises of HBO. They have treated him like the proverbial red headed step child from DAY ONE.
It's really not unification. Pavlik is the Lineal Champ and Sturm is a titleholder who only fights in Germany.
How come team Pac can decide on opponents and team Cotto can decide but Pavlik has to just eat what Bob gives him? c'mon. Are you igging me? i thought our communication was Civil...
Yes, they did pay him well for Lockett, but they also CHOSE Lockett. Arum gave HBO tape of 5 fighters, and HBO picked Lockett. They chose Lockett, but refused Rubioatsch
Cotto does not call people out. In fact Arum told him to fight Jennings, or sit. Pac is on a whole different level.
So Pavlik can't decide for himself? Didn't Arum say he told them he didn't like the B-hop fight but they still took it?
