i live in canada im hoping tsn or showtime can carry it please,, hbo are pricks but they probally know it will be wlad hugging and jabbing all night. who can blame hbo tho,, iggy vs wlad was a joke.
HBO's Ross Greenburg is a total f---ing MORON!!! He pays big $$$ to air Klit vs the likes of Austin, Thompson and Rahman... then decides to pass on a unification and ring mag HW title fight vs the undefeated WBA champ and universally recognised number 1 contender behind Wlad and Vitali (in front of 60,000 fans in an open air soccer stadium no less!) What a f---ing nob!!! F--k HBO... Bring on Showtime or ESPN!
That's not the worst of it. HBO gives us garbage like Lacy-Taylor, Berto-Urango and Dawson-Tarver but won't televise a heavyweight unification fight. Chagaev is ranked ahead of Haye by every major boxing organization and by every boxing expert. Ruslan is bigger, stronger and better than Haye but HBO passes on it? Maybe it's time for me to get rid of HBO.
So Wladimir should wait indefinetely for Haye to heal his boo-boos? Unification was always more important than any individual boxer, even David "Big Mouth" Haye.
Haye might have a legit injury but it would never cross your mind that li'l ol' Davey was lying to get out of the fight now would it? That kind of logic escapes the Brits on this forum.....................
Everyone should boycott Greenberg's & Kellerman's HBO. :deal I've already canceled my subscription...................
Make it a PPV. HBO will see the millions and millions of people buying it and then we will be sure to get more fights like this in the future.
ESPN would be great, regular ESPN, ideal (as I already get that) but Showtime would also be good. I can turn it on for a fight of this magnitude. And yes, unification should always take precendence of waiting even longer on titleless contender........... With the fight drawing close, whomever carries it won't have much time to promote it.
