      I don't get that channel, SMH...this could have very easily been an HBO headliner, I guess if it isn't in Vegas or Macau, the network isn't interested

          I wouldn't say that, didn't they show Froch v Kessler, and Wlad v Povetkin?

          Not sure why they didn't go for this, perhaps they felt it will be too one-sided.

          However, if they were talking about Froch fighting on HBO v Chavez or GG next summer it would've been a decent investment.

                  Not surprised, undercard isn't great and Groves isn't a big name over here, never mind internationally.

                          HBO should have put the tape delay of it on the "undercard" of the manny fight to give us something relevant to watch.

                              You can watch it their website. It's only a single dollar.
