    A couple rumors

    Not really rumors but Steve kim posted this on the Maxboxing message board.

    - Bob Arum says he think he has a deal with Dan Goossen for a Pavlik-Williams fight on September 27th. I couldn't get confirmation from Goossen since he's in Germany with Tony Thompson. Other sources aren't so sure a deal is done or will get done

    The second option for Pavlik is Allan Green moving down to 160

    - Manny Pacquiao will fight November 15th at the Planet Hollywood in Vegas

    - October 11th on Showtime- the bout between Antonio Tarver and Chad Dawson is a done deal. Also they will do a delay of Vitali Klits-Sam Peter on the same telecast. Not a bad alternative to the Mosley-Mayorga PPV, IMO

    - HBO is pushing hard for Jermain Taylor to face Jeff Lacy( should he get past Epi Mendoza in a few weeks) and not Carl Froch for the WBC sp midd belt

    I'll have the full details in tomorrow's article

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I hope Dawson vs Tarver finally happens, plus that will be a really sick card.

    Dawson-Tarver would be sick, and Pavlik-Williams has me intrigued, just because it was a fight I never, EVER thought of taking place.

      Thanks for the heads up.
      Pav Green would be a helluva fight. Be fireworks for sure.

          I rather watch Chad and Tarver for FREE than spend 50 dollars on a meaningless fight. Mayorga will make it intruiging and fun but 50 is too much for that fight.

              This HBO vs. Showtime **** has to stop. Dawson vs. Tarver looks good on paper and I want to see it but it could be a very boring fight tho. Why is thier also going to be a Vitali Klitschko- Sam Peter replay? Is that going to be PPV the week before or something?

                WTF, Allen Green? That dude don't deserve a shot at Pavlik. He's more of a threat than Williams at the moment, though.

                  Same day delay because the Vitali vs Peter fight will be in Berlin.

                    Would be strange to see Paul in there with a guy the same size as him.
