      If he's trolling he's either doing a really good job or a really bad job


      He's not trolling.

        Not sure if he has a contract with hbo, but I don't think so..

        I agree, if kovolev is free, then he should go to showtime, even though that doesn't guarantee him a big fight.,, him and Adonis were both on hbo, and the fight never happened, so why think showtime could get it done

            I doubt he's jumping anytime soon.

            On Wednesday, Duva filed a federal lawsuit against Michel, GYM, Haymon, Stevenson, Golden Boy Promotions and Showtime alleging breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, tortious interference and interference with prospective economic advantage.

              Hopefully he does, even though he shouldn't have too. Only way we will see him against the tops of the division.

                If HBO didn't blacklist show/gbp fighters this fight could be made. Too bad for Kovalev, gonna be stuck fighting stiffs.

                    Sort of on topic, Pascal was recently interviewed on Showtime thanking them for giving his fighters an opportunity. I wonder if he's going to head over to Showtime as well.

                    Isn't pascal still with Yvonne Michel? This is such a messy situation. I don't know how Kovalev finds any good fights.

                      HBO said they do not rule anyone out.

                      Showtime only have worked with gbp recently

                      hbo have worked with various promoters
