HBO to pass on Chagaev

[kayjay]

God your ****ing ******.

You think they want Adu for some more TV revenue?

They don't want Adu. If they did they could easily sign him. And do I think his passport got him his tryout with Man U? I sure do. You'd be a fool to overlook such things.

lol well, I dislike wlad and I listen to heavymetal music, have a very well paying job so I could pay the HBO bill and buy tickets to boxing events but usually go to bars.

I guess your assumptions are all wrong there.

You fit loosely into the class.

**** HBO. Haye never should have gotten this fight. This is for the ring belt, let Showtime pick it up.

[Leo Pradun]

no way will haye be ready for july 11th

[MANGLER]

Who cares? Just do the damn fight and take on haye when it's over Wlad.

[Joeyzagz]

LOL good for HBO


Further proof that Wlad needs Haye more than Haye needs Wlad.

Why would HBO pick up the fight??? Wlad can do the fight for the european fans but i dont blame HBO if they pay for the fight then they would either have to pass on the Haye fight and i think they didnt want to.

[Chunk..]

Sure we all know the Limeys are a jingoistic set and are willing to travel to watch their own. But Wlad sells out arenas in Germany and America, with fans who are not his compatriots, on a regular basis.

Edit: you know I love the English, but their rampant nationalism in sporting contexts is undeniable

There's a big difference between selling out an O2 arena in Berlin then their is in selling out a football stadium.

Brits are the reason why boxing is still alive in Europe.

No, Eastern Europeans are.

Except for Calzaghe, there's not been a lot of really good UK fighters.

Maybe Cleverly or Fury will do well, but these guys like Sexton, Haye, Froch, Sprott, Skelton, Harrison, and Hatton are all "B" fighters or lower.

aha 60000 people are gonna be bored out there mind.......dont blame wlad tho, hayes career is likely over now that he has to prove himself for a title shot......lucky for him the ****sucking british media will just blame his back problem and believe in a what could have been fantasy......
