        Pretty sweet to see a somewhat big fight in Venezuela. Still, I wonder why though and who else will be on the card.

          There is no way HBO is going to televise a fight from Venezuela.

          Wealth TV it is.

            Why not?

            I think HBO would air a live fight from Venezuela, with the right opponents. I don't think HBO cares about Big Nipple vs Bermy, though. Unless there is a bigger fight for the main event.

              this should be short and exciting.

              arreola in six or seven.

                Fine by me, don't care if neither is really anything special or will be remembered as long as its fun to watch which this one should be.

                  Because the HBO 12/15 date is going to Top Rank. Donaire is most likely fighting Arce. Originally it was Bradley's date until he gave it up.

                  HBO wouldn't televise Klitschko fights overseas often because they didn't want to do a split site commentary or send their crew abroad.

                  This fight isn't a big profile fight and they certainly won't for it. I'd be absolutely shocked if HBO picked this up if it were in Venezuela.

                    When Don King won the purse bid, he said he wanted the fight on HBO. I don't know why he would choose Venezeula though.

                    But we'll know more in day or so.
