I really hope not, I like HBO's team more than Showtime's, and 24/7 >>>> Fight Camp 360 as well.

Smart move to release stuff publicly saying HBO won, just trying to hold CBS' feet to the fire and put pressure on them. The decision was supposed to be made 2 weeks ago, means they've been in negotiations for a while. The HBO offer was made like a month ago. Probably trying to squeeze more $ and commitments from SHOW/CBS.

Better for boxing in general to be on showtime. More mainstream potential.

Any network is good as long as Teddy Atlas is not involved, he's a clown..:gay:

Arum has another month to make up his mind. Why would he rush the bidding war?
