Why was the Arreola-Stiverne rematch downgraded to ESPN? (why did HBO lack interest?)

but boxing truth, its a paper belt in this instance. wlad is so clearly the number 1 in the division

 

I am glad that HBO and SHO do not waste their money on the Heavyweight ****. But to be honest I like seeing Chris getting beat up and crying. Plus, the press conference got me hyped up . . . this is probably one of the few HW fights that I have looked forward to seeing in years!

 

Hmm, interesting. I was just thinking about Epix the other day about how they haven't shown any fights recently, but according to that article they are out of the boxing business. That's a shame. Hopefully, though, the fight tonight generates a lot of viewers. If it does, we'll be seeing more boxing on ESPN.
