    If HBO want Stevenson/Kovalev then pay for it. Why is this a debate?

          How much is the asking price here?
          Probably make more money off Hopkins/Stevenson
          Does Showtime have enough money for that?

                For Showtime, 1 million is extremely good. Canelo has never passed a million on Showtime. Lets pretend he's not a draw. And the guys Hopkins fought recently have been no names, and he still did well.

                Without Hopkins, Pascal had never sold out anything. Pascal's Dawson fight only had a 8,122 attendance. The only other time he sold out was with Bute obviously. And with Hopkins history in Canada beating up their champs, Hopkins as a b-side is obviously more attractive gatewise than Kovalev.

                    well stevenson just did 1.3 million on hbo. going to a network where he gets less viewers is a good thing for sure. not many people go from the majors to the minors but in boxing its a good thing.

                      Yes, match the offer. You want the fight, HBO has to prove it. Simple
