Good chance of Curtis Stevens being a part of that April 4th NBCSN card.HBO, Im told turned down Stevens-N'Dam for March 29th opener #boxing



Come on HBO...

Stevens woulda smashed N'Dam but it would've been fun while it lasted. He probably would've had less KD's than Quillin but would've stopped him.

Anyway, they're really looking to get KOvalev some more TV exposure. They're gonna probably PPV KOvalev/Stevenson.

Maybe they realize there's a good chance if Stevens wins he'll fight Quillin next

[Hougigo]

Since there's such a huge difference in budgets in HBO and NBC, I don't expect much of a big fight. That sucks...Duva should try and get him on HBO March 29th... but evidently money is thin for then

Quillin most likely fighting mid April on Hopkins undercard.... and he fights like twice a year. So they wouldn't have to worry about that.

But they gave the OK for Dulorme/Mayfield

Damn wtf that one would be good. HBO is really going downhill lol

[Holywarrior]

HBO are cheap as hell when it comes to boxing.

[The Hammer]

They should have agreed to show that fight.

Curtis Stevens is much more entertaining than their $2,000,000 per fight Andre "clinch 'n head butt" Ward.
