    Hopefully Guerrero and Thurman fight, didn't think that was happening so looking forward to that. Still nothing from Victor Ortiz was hoping to see him back in the ring this year.

    My bad. I misunderstood you.
    I'm more interested in Lomachenko's fight than watching Bradley get more brain damage "for the fans".

    1)Have you ever seen Vera fight?

    2) I do agree that putting the best p4p fighter in the world on the shelf is ridiculous.

    This is yet another example of why competition between networks is so great for consumers. Going forward, HBO MUST put competive, significant fights together or risk losing customers to Showtime.

    All good mate. Sure Lomachenko is gonna be interesting to follow, but TV wise, I dont think he deserve to be mention. But he sure is a big talent. But then again, big diffirent between amateur and pro game.


    Your welcome :thumbsup

    Seems like HBO PPV upcoming fights are weak. Those co-main event are not good enough.

    Thurman vs. Guerrero beats both Salido vs. Cruz & Shumenov vs. Kovacs.

    Who is headlining Nov 9? Mikey Garcia or Phonaire? If Donaire is headlining then I'm cancelling my HBO subscription.

    Thurman is probably fighting Soto Karass, not Guerrero who passed. Boxrec is often out of date. They also show Ward Rodriguez, despite Rod turning it down again:

    I doubt Shumenov Kovacs is the cofeature, it's just one of the first fights scheduled for the card. A better chance of Zou being the cofeature, which would suck as much lol

    Quillin vs Rosado is gonna be a war, Broner vs Maidana should be a great fight as well as Thurman vs Guerrero.

    Not sure what you're talking about.

    Mikey ofcourse. I think it is for the WBO and Ring Belt. But he is the star of that card.
    Dont like Donaire either.

    No man. Quillin is gonna kncok Rosado out pretty quick. Not a good match up.
    Broner vs. Maidanna well, Maidanna got schooled by Devon Alexander and Broner did more show than figthing against Paulie.

    For me HBO got the upper hand for the rest for the year.
    But great thtat Showtime still got shows left this year.
