    Edwin Rodriguez signed with Haymon after already signing the contract to fight Andre Ward. (i think)


    HBO doesn't have a problem working with Haymon either- a Haymon fighter could fight an HBO fighter on HBO. What HBO is not doing is letting Haymon make their fights and pretty much do what Espinoza is doing

      This is the guy who rejected Hopkins-Kovalev because Kovalev is not a well known enough name and it didnt "make sense"


      .....yet he approved Hopkins-Murat a couple days later


      now, do me a favor and point out where the **** i defended espinoza. reading comprehension matters, u know. i never defended or attacked anyone in fact. what i did though is point out the fact that u were wrong.

          I said I think. Calm down


          Either way, the point is HBO is willing to work with Haymon or GBP....


          What they're not willing to do is allow constant Haymon mismatches on their premium network like the card we got last night

            Espinoza is correct. HBO's behavior was childish and still is. That is what happens when you become the BMOC. HBO was on top for so long, they thought they could do whatever the hell they wanted and treat fighters and promoters however they wanted. Showtime changed that when they signed Mayweather and, like a child who was not allowed to play the game that HE wanted, HBO took their toy and went home.

              I'm sure hbo and there subscribers really miss all those Gary Russell fights.

              Hbo saved there brand by giving GBP the boot.

                Instead of crying about the rival network why doesn't he explain why the Stevenson fight didn't get made. Notice he didn't dispute anything Bernard said about those negotiations. To paraphrase Kovalev "He's a piece of shit."

                  now they are, sure. but before recently? they were willing to show haymon fighters and not willing to show GBP fighters. thats a fact. chris arreloa, edwin rodriguez, anthony dirrell, sakio bika all haymon fighters vs. zero GBP fighters.

                    And good thing they did. As a result, they seem focused and clear in their decision to put on the best fights possible

                    Crawford-Gamboa, Golovkin-Geale, Kovalev-Hopkins, etc


                    HBO is embarrasing Showtime right now and the reason why is simple:


                    Stephen Espinoza. If he does not get fired, expect more of the same type of card like last night


                    I am not a Showtime subscriber because of Espionza and Ezpinoza only and I am sure a lot of other people are in the same boat.

                    Are you serious? You obviously haven't watched the crap HBO has given us since they banned GBP or you wouldn't be saying this.

                      And Ezpinoza rejected Hopkins-Kovalev, yet approved Hopkins-Kovalev



                      Its clearly a Haymon issue........ or is Bernard Hopkins not promoted by GBP for his fight against Kovalev?
                      You're right ,Gbp promotes hopkins
