    HBO to pass on Chagaev

    SportsNation Dan Rafael: (1:33 PM ET ) We have breaking news from the Bat Email.

    SportsNation Dan Rafael: (1:33 PM ET ) Ross Greenburg from HBO has informed me that if indeed Klitschko elects to face Chagaev on June 20, HBO will pass. The network is only interested in doing the Haye fight on the rescheduled date of July 11.

      Sucks for Chagaev but good for Haye as that might entice Wlad to wait!!

            I agree. it really sucks when a tv network is deciding whats good for boxing. Chagaev vs Wladimir is one of the more significant hw fights atleast compared to what we've seen in the last couple of years, and hbo doesn't want to accept it. that sucks.

              Wlad is one fighter who doesn't need HBO. RTL will air the fight, and the stadium is sold out. Wlad can make more on a fight without HBO than all but a few can make with them.

              Ring magazine will recognize this as the first HW champioship fight in five years. That opnion is more important than Ross Greenberg's

                they know they would get quadruple the ratings if they wait it out 3 weeks. and chagaevs people wont take the money that rahman took.

                  I agree. Wlad should tell that creep Ross Greenburg to go **ck himself.

                    Chag's ill though..

                    This fight is going to fail hard.

                    Chagaev to drop down dead in the 4th round from aids.
