          Yes they will.

          Why will HBO show Angulo, Berto, and so many others against less than top 10 opposition, but not Adamek?

          Adamek's fights SHOULD be on HBO.

            Integrated Sports PPV for $29.95 in SD only. Rather get a SD quality stream for $3.

              Adamek's fights SHOULD be on HBO.
              i agree everyone should be held to the same standard!

              if you aint gonna show adamek vs grant or bute vs brinkley then you shouldnt show angulo vs yorgey or berto vs forbes

                What is so hard for you guys to understand about HBO. HBO isn't here to run the sport of boxing or make it better, it is a company that is out there to make money. Adamek may be a good fighter but Americans aren't interested in him, there just isn't a strong enough demand to justify that fight being on the network. Angulo V Yorgey may not be more important as the sport goes but the ratings say Americans are more interested in that fight than they are Adamek fights. If you're an exciting American fighter or a Mexican you are going have an easier time getting on the network because that is what interests Americans. The Eastern European population is not greater than the Mexican American population in this country, so HBO will side with the side that will make them more money.

                  You're wrong, most Americans are not as nationalistic as you are.

                  Adamek is an exciting fighter who would appeal to the casual boxing fan.
