    What is wrong with HBO? I want reasons why K9 isn't getting shown.

    Seriously, why in the hell is K9 vs Powell not getting shown on HBO? You have one world titlist from the states fighting another American and they pass on it as the opener to show some unknown Canadian versus a washed up fighter.....I'm a fight fan and not only is the K9 fight a world title bout(which the other one isn't), it's between two Americans. I like American fighters and like watching them fight, I could careless about Stiverne(before you jump on me, I've seen the guy fight live. I know what he's about.), he isn't going to accomplish much in his career anyways. HBO is ***ing this choice up and I want to know why they felt like they needed to go down this route.

    It's because Ross Greenburg is racist against Eastern European fighters.

        twice in a row he's got shafted. They really should show the top three fights:

        Alexander vs Lucas
        Cloud vs Mack
        K9 vs Powel

        I don't know why HBO sometimes only shows 1 or 2 fights. Should always be 3.

          I was shocked that the third fight they will be the Austin/Stiverne fight over K9. TBH, they should show all four but if they are going to show 3 why pass on k9 v powel? **** doesn't make sense to me.

            wait....they are showing the Austin fight? lmao :SMH: I figured they were only showing two fights that's why K9 wasn't on.

            K9 vs Powel on paper should be a great battle and he's a champion. Who the hell cares about Austin vs Stiverne???

            I hope they at least have a stream online. Not sure if Don King does that with undercard fights like Top Rank & Golden Boy often do.

              Have you ever actually watched K-9 fight? The dude is one of the most boring fighters to watch next to John Ruiz. He constantly clinches and gasses out. I remember watching his last fight and swearing I'd never watch another fight of his again.

                Theyre actually showing Austin/Stiverne on tv?? i wasnt too concerned with K9/Powell not being on tv but if they are showing that other fight over it, then this is a disgrace

                    Yes, it's true. Last night HBO showed the triple headed that they will be showing in a few weeks. Austin V Stiverne will open up the night.

                    Yes, I've seen him fight and met him a few times. Regardless it doesn't change the fact that it's two Americans fighting for a belt on an American television station. Bumping that for a washed up fighter vs a guy that really hasn't done much at all, doesn't make sense to me.
