It started with a phone call and lunch between old friends Ross Greenburg, president of HBO Sports, and Mark Greenberg, Showtime executive vice president. It ended 15 months later with the mother of all contracts between the networks.A contract that accounts for everything from the serious — what if the fight ends in a flagrant foul? — to the silly — which network's ring announcer will welcome the world to Memphis?

No wonder hbo/showtime rarely work with each other

if there is a 24/7 or all access series happening for this fight, I seriously hope 24/7 does it and with minimal interference from Mayweather. Hes gonna have his input that's for sure, but lets hope its not just another rich lifestyle scene. I'd like to hear him rant about Pac.

Like I said man, these TV execs aint about to waste their time unless they knew for a fact that both boxers are on board. They just dont have the time of day for this ****.

Arum is flexing whatever muscle he's got, showing us that gag orders dont mean **** to him, he will ridicule Floyd to the bitter end.

what r they going to do announce it in april?

it seems that way, they'll announce in April that they will try again for September because it was too difficult to make a deal or theres not enough time to promote it.

I want to see the fight bad but I really cant believe its going to happen, how many times in the past 5 years was this fight supposed to be really close to being finalized? Then no fight, it seems the same this time around. I really hope im wrong but I wouldn't bet money on the fight happening.

On May 3rd about a quarter of this site will go on hibernation. Personally, I'll be celebrating with some great gifs of zapping right hands, air removing straights to the body and perfectly set up, highlight-reel-worthy pull counters.

It's going to be highlights of a ton of spoiling and people will be mad as ****.
