    HBO only obstacle left for Calzaghe-Kessler

    HBO is offering only $3 million for the fight, however they had hoped for $5 million for the unification fight.

    All other terms had been agreed. It would be a shame if the fight fell through because of $2 million shortage.

    HBO will ruin this, as they are an American TV network. They don't want to see Euro p.hags get rich.

      I think this is PPV worthy with a great card, when you look other PPV cards over the last few years.

          $2 million? If HBO can afford to give PBF more than that to fight Henry Bruseles, they should gladly up the ante to get the biggest European fight available on their airwaves. If Calzaghe wins, they have their next huge PPV set up vs. the winner of Hopkins-Wright.
