    If I recall correctly Prince is the same dummy that tried to get Ward out of his promotional contract as well. That did not work out well either. He is not a very smart businessman it seems. Trying to be Haymon and being Haymon are 2 different things it seems.

      Jenning's career is being jeopardized. Looks like the earliest we might see him back is December and not even that is a certainty.

        The HWs are irrelevant without the Klitschkos. Most CWs beatdown the HWs besides K2.

          Jennings has no power and has fought no one and he is the same size as Adamek. Tomasz also looked the best he has looked in a few fights in his last one. So why and the world would he not fight Jennings?

            Adamek is a good fighter. He is willing to fight the best. Jennings should be happy that he actually would get this opportunity.

              Prince is the same cat who allegedly had goons run up in the Top Rank gym and put a beating on members of Floyd's team.....in B Hop's words they had Ellerbe and them scrubbing blood off the floor!!

              Why do fighters **** with him like that?!?....I saw him with Ward and smfh

                  Basically, this is:

                  Prince - I used my connections to get you and your fighter a slot on HBO for more money (double? triple?) than NBC can offer for his services... because of this, I want 50-50.

                  Duva - No... Regardless of who got HBO to offer for Adamek-Jennings, 50-50 is unacceptable. 75-25 is what I had in mind when I quoted HBO on the price to get it done.

                  Prince - Forget about 75-25... (Smooth Pimp voice) Just take this money and let's make it happen hoe.

                  Duva - I'll just pass and put Adamek on NBC regardless of the money.

                  Prince should give up some ground and try to negotiate as close to 60-40 as he can; if he can only get her to 65-35, he should take it, especially if it includes Polish money and gate.

                    Lol, somewhere in the middle of all that Prince pulls the race card.

                      Too long - didn't read. WTF, I don't need to know every minute detail of how the fight fell through.

                      As to the topic, after having a breakout year in 2012, Jennings has only fought once against some relative unknown opponnet and now a high profile fight with Adamek has fell through.

                      Hope he gets back on track soon
