    HBO shouldn't have turned their backs on Floyd, now their losing out to Showtime

    Floyd always used to compliment HBO at the end of his fights.

    Always used to show them respect.

    Rather than backing Floyd's drug testing campaign, they shunned him.

    Now in turn, they really get to witness how two faced Bob Arum and his Top Rank co-operation are with this move to CBS and Showtime.

    It must hurt to be at HBO right now.

    Maybe it's a good thing ... as they now can see Top Rank's true colours.

      I agree, but lets be honest, Floyd made it difficult for them to deal with his issues.

          How did HBO turn their backs on Mayweather? They support him through most things, They have to be seen neutral in the Mayweather-Pac fiasco.

              They should have shunned him for thinking he is above the boxing commission and thinking he can make up his own rules.

                  Neutral? So Max Kellerman's and Michael Buffers comments about Floyd were neutral at the Pacquaio vs Margarito fight eh?

                              What was Pacquiao doing with the catchweights?
