WAR HBO!!! I love this man. I miss 24/7s hyping up fights, SHO doesn't even come close. HBO makes it epic.

TR and GB now with HBO. SHO is done... Mayweather on PPV only and TMT promotions will not be enough. That's why Espinoza is going nuts on Twitter.

I like how Oskie didn't lose Alvarez to Haymon. Some good old fashioned loyalty, perhaps?

Seltzer was the nail in the coffin for Showtime.

Wonder why they haven't posted details of the deal.. It's probably crappy money that's why. The Pacquaio deal is an example of a. HBO deal.

Maidana already did. And we know damn well Pacquiao would beat him as well, that's why he has avoided the fight for 5 years and counting.

Your point?

Pacquaio went to sleep by a shot that Mayweather took like a boss. Maidan a after the fight said "I want to go home" tired and defeated with his ass red, stinging with pain.

Also educate yourself on why Pacquaio keep signing extensions with Arum, fighting the same guys over or no one even relevant to the sport. The guy is in debt and never gets paid what he suppose to but keep resigning, that's called insanity. He knows being with Arum will not help produce a Mayweather fight yet he kept resigning. So who's really ducking? Pacquaio is either ducking or a full blown dumb fck.

I expect network/haymon fanboys to get butt hurt over this unfortunate news. Hehe...
