        The HBO commentary is not involved in the dealings and promotions of fights or their marketing. They Greenburg knows what he's doing with Al Haymon. IF what I'm saying isn't true, then Williams won't fight on HBO again.

        But is that likely?

          HB0 didnt judge the fights bro. You think they are starving for some new star? The best fighter and most popular PPV fighter in the world is African American.

            That's dumb Hispanics have now become the largest minority in America and growing. Furthermore Hispanics are hardcore boxing fans. If HBO were going to fix fights they would be smart to do it for the Hispanic fighter. Judges were blind man no fix here.

                      You would have to be ****** not to realize the potential of regaining African American interest in the sport, but the problem is, its just not there.

                      Williams, Alexander, Broner, these guys either lose or get gifts and HBO insist on putting them on as headliners for cards.

                      The reason is obvious.
