YAHOO'S IOLE talks about HBO's snub of Pirog

Yeah I thought Pirog should have been interviewed...I was suprised Danny was interviewed...does Pirog speak English?(sure they cudda found some1 to translate though) At first I was thinking there's only 2 commentators so we won't see any interviews but then they interviewed Danny and left out Pirog...

................

Will not be the first time either, from their disrescpect of the Klitschkos after those two provided them with some of the highest rated fights ever to this, I think it's more about their affiliation with certain promotores than anything else.

What a disgrace that was. This is what is letting down the sport. There is no concept of merit-- that the best fighter deserves everything instead of the guy with the better promoter. Smh qft That was the oddest thing of the fight for me. It seemed like politics was the reason for that snub. Shame on HBO. I concur. People like team mayweather can hate on Iole all they want but he almost ALWAYS brings up good points about boxing...this is an awesome observation most didn't think about Yeah i appreciate iole mentioning this.

Im starting to notice a trend in who HBO likes to snub. Ill give them one more strike tho.

Iole is 100% right. HBO= GBPs + al fukking Haymon

whatever it wasn't the real middleweight championship, but HBO could have done at least interviewed Pirog he won.

Yeah. Noticed this one as well. I don't get it. From the looks of it, he could be a star, he got the confidence , the swag , likes to exchange, a very good chin to do that as well , and I'd say above average power.
