    Anyone know the story behind HBO not picking up Wlad/Chambers?

    Is it because they're too poor??

    Or are they just sticking to the pattern of being dumbasses??

    This is an obvious HBO fight, particularly since they got Wladdy under contract. WTF is going on here?

    Yet another reason to organize a letter writing campaign to Ross Greenburg and the stooges at HBO.

    Down with HBO.

    Maybe I should cancel my subscription until they learn how to run a goddamn business properly.

      ????

      That doesn't make sense. HBO broadcasts Mayweather fights so they obviously don't mind putting on dull fights.

      I'm sensing some racism towards Eastern European champions here by HBO.

        Mayweather is a huge draw in america, chambers is completely unknown in america and wlad isn't exactly a star.

        If wlad fights david haye they'll pick it up fasho.

          It's my understanding that HBO truly hates "tape-delay" fights, and will only do them in certain circumstances.

          The Klitschko's make enough money off the gate and the German tv that they dont need HBO, so they refuse to do their fight at 7am or whatever over there to accomodate a live US feed.
