    HBO would be ****** to show a Judah fight with some unknown instead of a Pascal-Hopkins showdown.

    Props to Showtime for capitalizing on their mistake and trying to air the fight.

      Klits knock their opponents out and don't have to fake low blows to get breathers.

        Worse than Jones - Tarver III and that's unbelievable.
        Yea at least Jones-Tarver 3 had 1 good round. The BHop fight had none.

              Hopkins wants $3M+ at the very least... Pascal would want at least 40% of whatever he gets, which would come out to over $6M.

              Zab Judah-Mathysse wouldn't cost more than $1M, probably not even $750K.

              As if that alone doesn't justify it, the ratings Judah and Hopkins probably aren't that far apart. And HBO has an open 11-6 date. And I like B-Hop, but you know Hopkins and Pascal is going to get ugly with the clinching. Anything else would be ****ing ******.

                Exactly what I was thinking

                  HBO knows how boring Hopkins is now.

                    Names are names and a name doesn't fade away very quickly (unlike the actual fighters)

                      Im more interesting in seeing how a young dude like Pascal can handle Hopkins tactics
                      I would rather watch that then Judah fight a Jersey Shore drop out
                      or freaking Vlad and his oh so exciting
