Yea, I've heard that the whole "First fight in the new Yankee Stadium" stigma has HBO more interested....and they were interested in the first place. Hopefully they can reach a deal.

How u pullin that one savor?..

I said I'll go again this year especially with the fact that it's in Yankee stadium only if Cotto replaces Santiago as his head trainer and either gets his uncle Evangelista or another worthy name..otherwise I'm sittin my ass at home to watch this..
