    Pacquiao Vs. Mosley on PRIMETIME TV?!

    Rommel (Alameda, CA)


    Dan,Has HBO agreed to carry PAC-Mosley yet? Will there be a 24/7?

    Dan Rafael (12:33 PM)


    It's not a matter of "if HBO agreed." It's a matter of if Top Rank will make a deal with HBO to do it. At this point, there is no deal and Arum is talking with Showtime/CBS as well.

    That would be crazy if this fight was on CBS.

        Wow, imagine the exposure Pac would get for doing this on primetime tv. Do it Arum, take the hit this fight (you would anyways in PPV buys) and make up for it in the next fights.

            It's not gonna happen, Bob is just posturing he knows HBO is the only company thats gonna put up the money he needs to pay Pac.

              Probably right but hey, we can wish for something as monumental as this to happen for boxing. Instantly goes from **** fight ignored by many to the fight that beat American Idol.

                Regardless of what you think of this fight, If they were able to get this on CBS during their primetime hours, that would be crazy......and really help the sport.

                  I agree it probably won't happen either.

                  BTW I wonder how that would work? I know College Football gets 3-4 hours, College Basketball gets two etc......but if this did go down, would Arum get enough time for the whole card, just the main event or maybe 2 fights and the main event.

                    terrible fight, but primetime tv? i'll take it.

                    big exposure for the sport, and i hope continues [if it happens of course].
