What does HBO do now after all the promoting?

And people have the guff to trash talk Byrd when it comes to inactivity.

Or Ruiz for his ways, but Ruiz fights people. I have a new found respect for Ruiz.

I think the boxing public wants to hate Ruiz for his sluggish style, but people are starting to respect the guy for fighting anybody for whatever money.

they should grab Vitali's check and split it up among Rahman, Chavez Jr. and whoever Chavez Jr was gonna beat up. Have Rahman fight a another heavyweight for the now vacant title. And let the show roll for free on regular HBO.

Vitali in turn gets paid whatever the guy that was gonna fight chavez Jr. would get in his next fight for pull this kind of stunt.

man, that sounds fair and square to me.

since boxing takes a back seat to other hbo events and they have other boxing slots filled for this year,i guess we wont see rahman and klit go at it this year.and you know hbo is pissed about the money already invested.and neither klit draw big stateside.wouldnt think it unusual if vklit will have to go back to germany to fight after this setback.

it would be out of character but maybe after vagina klitchko mopes around he'll come to his senses and call the fight back on.theres still time.

After further review....

Ironfist (jeez, what a bad nickname) is 34 years old, and took quite a beating off Lewis. In the last round of that fight, he was getting hit with bombs and would have been KO'd if he came out for one more round. I don't think he will ever be what he was before that fight. That was his Taylor-JCC moment in the sun. I don't want to hear how well Vitali did in that fight - take a look at him after the fight was stopped. Exhausted and beaten to a pulp. His face looked like dog food and Lewis went out to party.

Vitali is damaged goods. Something needs to be done. A reluctant belt holder is just bad for the sport no matter how you look at it. He needs to fight on schedule or get out of the way. Where's a commission when you need one

How about Byrd vs Rahman?? Byrd said in his last fight he wanted a fight in December. And since Byrd never took a punch in his last fight he should be ready to go.
