    HBO's DESPERATION For Attracting The African American Public

    is the reason for William's "win". Its the reason for Broner's "win" over De Leon. They want to find the next market cash cow and in the process, kicking the sport while its down. And it IS down.

            Idiotic thread, from what I heard all the HBO crew scored the fight to Lara, and they don't score the fights.. The judges do.

                Why does a robbery have to be turned in to something racial?

                You're a better poster than this. I usually respect your opinions.


                But you know what you are starting here right? You'll have idiot racists like Medved and Klitschko fans coming in here to bash Blacks, then you'll have blacks retaliating. Then you'll have a racial war.


                You've been here for a long time, you should make a better example than this. Not starting racial wars.


                And FYI, HBO does not like this at all. Go to HBO sports and see what they have to say about this fight. They are disgusted with this decision.

                  I didn't even see this post before I made my post.

                  But here you go, 2501, this is what YOU started. Thanks.

                    HbO knows by now that Williams will never be a huge draw. This was a situation of Lara being robbed because he was facing a bigger name in a fight that was promoted by said name's promoter. HBO is not looking for African American support for Williams. If a promoter goes after that demographic its one thing. The Network has bigger issues to deal with.
