      Maybe Kirkland is out of black pills.

      Does he still have the same adviser? The guy that ruined all his fights/
      Wasn't it Dunkin or something? Your guess is as good as mine. Lol

        Unlikely, would be surprised if they let him fight Canelo after the crap he pulled.

        He replaced Dunkin with one of his friends who gave pretty bad financial advice

            After that he cleaned house and sued GBP.... so don't know if his "friend" was part of the clean house.

            Also Glazkov might enter this HW mix


            Said HBO spoke about having him on

              @AndyLeeBoxing, moving down toward 154, willing to step in for Kirkland and fight Willie Nelson on May 24 @HBOboxing.

                He just posted this too which is equally as good

                A source says that a heavyweight bout between Mike Perez and Bryant Jennings on May 24th,'Has potential' of taking place. HBO? #boxing

                Looks like they want to go head to head with Stevenson
                looks like herschman is getting back at Haymon stealing Stevenson and ruining the Kovalev plan by putting on a fight the same night. Damn, gotta admit thats a fine FU to haymon/showtime/stevenson.

                  Yea, I guess I wouldn't have a problem with Nelson-Lee as like the opener on a 4 fight card but no way should that be a part of any two fight card or even the opener of a 3 fight card would be a stretch.

                  Them picking up Glazkov wouldn't be a bad move as it would set up some fights, but I will never be able to get that Scott fight out of my head in relation to him so he will be meh to me for a long while.

                  The more I read about HBO's current state just makes me shake my head and thinking "wtf has happened here". It is as if someone wants to run HBO boxing into the ground~

                    If HBO wants, they could put on a decent show for less money than Stevenson's purse.

                    This Nelson/Lee business is B.S though. Hope Lou is just talking. Would rather see Stevens/Lee

                      HBO needs more HW, off the top of my head:

                      Jennings
                      Perez
                      Glazkov now
                      Adamek (if he hasn't retired, but only because he's M.E)
                      Ruiz

                      Might be more, I don't know
