Top Rank and Lou DiBella held a meeting on Thursday morning to negotiate a deal for a possible middleweight fight between WBC/WBO champion Kelly Pavlik and current WBC 154-pound champ Sergio Martinez. The meeting went well for the most part. No deal was reached but the two sides plan to continue their discussions. [Click Here To Read More]

good for dibella. these ****ing networks going head to head on the same date is a joke. showtime is doing it's thing with some really good fights and a badass tournament in the super 6, hbo should **** off and get another date. i'd probably take showtime on this one anyways kessler froch is a better fight than pavlik martinez. why doesn't pavlik man the **** up and move up to 168 already. fighting junior middleweights is a joke. abraham might win the super 6 and pavlik could have been apart of that.

I'm buying both these cards

surprised the issues are from the bika end ... its been green that seems to have done evrything in his power not to take that step up in competition. it ridiculously ****** when sho and hbo go head to head with eachother. i dont see the reasoning for spitting the fan base.

Bad move indeed. HBO doesn't win anything in that, it's ******. They should just be happy to share the market and both make money instead of going head to head.

Reeno, nothing was said about Williams???

I hope Bute gets into the Super Six tournament rather than Green or Bika.

[Makavelli Jr.]

This is ******. Why the **** would they go head to head? Looks like I will record one, and watch it directly after the other.

Maybe they will be at different times though.

why are they going head to head with showtime. there's enough room and dates for both networks. and why pavlik/martinez and not pavlik/williams. makes no sense to me

I hope Bute gets into the Super Six tournament rather than Green or Bika.

he would be a better fit
