    American TV has shown no love to either fighter in recent times and this is a potentially huge mega fight in Europe that will generate huge money so will this be enough for a US TV station to show it.

    Only fight that anyone cares about at HW = Klit vs Klit or Haye vs Klit.

    Chris Arreola is the best

    No from what I've heard HBO is done with Wlad for good. Showtime might pick it up. As long as I can watch it on the net I'm fine. Screw us tv. All they worry about is Obama and ufc.

    Yes it will be. I don't have inside info or anything. But I do know Wlad-Haye is probably top 3 most anticipated fights amongst US fans.

    Also, the fight is guaranteed excitement imo. Both are dangerous + Both are vulnerable

    That is exactly why they probably will show it.

    Not only it's a unification HW bout, but it has the potential to actually be a competitive and/or at least entertaining fight. Haye has done a good job of hyping himself, and racking some decent wins @ HW, and pissing Wlad off a bit.

    They should show it.

    Yeah that was a fluke, Arreola had an off-night. If they had a rematch Chris would finish him off in three.

    arreola complained that in the 5th round there were a few times that vitali missed and that was bad for the promoting of his new punching bag line.

    HBO will certainly pick it up. Regardless of the Wlad situation... Golden Boy have their haye options so it will definitely happen

    It would be very arrogant for any US TV station not to show it.

    Source? I haven't heard anything of the sort. In fact, Greenburg, the head of HBO boxing said not showing his last two fights were tough decisions. IF they had dropped Klitschko for good I'm sure they would have said so.
