Does HBO favor certain boxers for the wrong reasons?

[The Hammer]

Do HBO executives Ross Greenburg and Kery Davis favor certain boxers because they are promoted by Bob Arum and Richard Schaefer and because of their race?

Do they make other fighters wait longer to appear on HBO? Why did they have a problem finding a summer date for Sergio Martinez but not Paul Williams?

Why would they not let Dmitry Pirog back on last fall, after a spectacular KO win?

Are they showing Haye-Klitschko because Greenburg thinks Haye will win? Why did they turn down Chagaev-Klitschko, Chambers-Klitschko and Peter-Klitschko II?

Some will say "nobody in the US has ever heard of Chagaev" but back in 2009 nobody in the US had ever heard of Haye. And did they refuse to show Chambers and Peter because Greenburg believed they had no chance, and he doesn't want the public to see Wlad dominate?

Back in early 2007, even Bob Arum said the HBO executives were reluctant to have Kelly Pavlik on.

Bias towards Yanks, and HBO ain't cool with Arum. Nothing to do with race. Also HBO just loves to make shit fights too often.

They were pretty high on Yuri Foreman, and his story.

Martinez is p4p,But nobody cares for him.Hbo are paying martinez millions
and he brings no fans.There trying real hard to promote him,Yet the fans
arent clicking to him.Pirog seems like he would fight for cheap,Hope to see
him back soon.

hbo doesn't favor certain boxers, they have to acquiesce to the demands of certain powerful promoters and managers (Top Rank, GBP, Al Haymon), because these guy control all the cash cows of boxing.

so if you are not a cash cow and wanna get on HBO and get treated well, you have to associate with these guys or else you'll get bossed around like martinez et. al.

Greenburg will still cater to Arum.

He refused to show Martinez-Zbik (Martinez is promoted by a goy named Dibella) but was willing to show Chavez Jr-Zbik (Chavez is promoted by Arum).

Chavez Jr-Zbik are two pale fighters, who are they racist to again?

HBO does what promoters does and that is to be smart and make money for them self.

[BOLLOCKS]

Chavez Jr is promoted by Bob Arum.

Zbik was on HBO because he had a title that Arum wanted for his cash cow Chavez Jr.

Even though he fought bravely, Sebastian Zbik will never again be back on HBO.

Yes, they're greedy and don't care too much about making teh fights non-causal Boxing fans want, racist? Idk about that.

Chavez Jr is promoted by Bob Arum.

Even though he fought bravely, Sebastian Zbik will never again be back on HBO. You can bet your life savings on that.
