HBO disappointed with David Haye

[The Hammer]

From ESPN's Dan Rafael:

"Although Booth didn't speak to the Klitschko camp on Wednesday, he said he had a heated conversation with HBO's Kery Davis over the fight falling through. HBO had made it an important part of its fall schedule."

Will this affect Haye's future opportunities with HBO? This is twice now he's pulled out of HBO televised fights, at a time when the HBO budget is tight.

Are Showtime packed with their 168 tournament? They seemed to take great pleasure in showing Haye-Maccarinelli.

[MANGLER]

Figures they would be. If they don't televise it, I wonder if Showtime will scoop up Haye-Val.

It did seem Haye brought out old Al Bernstein's ****sexual tendencies.

....I would think Haye has burnt his bridges with HBO and the Klitschko brothers. I mean, who knows if he would ever step in the ring with them? I seriously doubt he would, regardless of how close it got to fight time.

Nice and childish, as usual.

I just thought they seemed very enthuasiastic to have an exciting CW unification bout on their station, albeit for only 2 rounds.

I can't see Don King letting even David Haye anywhere near Valuev. Looks like Mr. Haye is going to have to earn his title shot now.

My feeling is that there's more to this than we know. I doubt whether the contract has been signed.

[Lucky Charms]

**** off HBO. Go show another headliner with Paulie Malignaggi and keep sucking Golden Boy's wee-wee. Showtime is kicking your ass right now.

About time, too.
