HBO & Sho upcoming schedule = Awful

Haha I got to agree about good ol' Larry. He was at least entertaining.

Haymon has all the fighters of note. Everybody should of seen this coming. Instead people get blinded by their hate and can't see Haymon building a stable like no other we've seen before.

GGG against a top 3 middleweight is now a terrible fight lol.. That's in February..March we have Kovalev-pascal.. April we get Wlad-Jennings..
One good show a month is good enough for me...
Showtime has zero fights on the horizon...
Nbc starting in March and ****e TV, we got a good year ahead of us..
Just cancel showtime and its full steam ahead..

Boxing is splintering again. The "Cold War" looked pretty workable in hindsight.

The fights you listed are not bad at all however. I'm just worried about how these guys are going to work across multiple networks and a zillion promoters when they couldn't negotiate fights between 2.

There are several fights from now to May that I'll be watching, so I'm not tripping. I'm glad I don't have high standards like you or I'd be pissed with boxing all the time. I learned a while ago that there's more to boxing than HBO/SHO.

Agreed. He built up his fighters on so-so fights on Showtime at Showtime's expense, only to pull out and put on all the good fights on his new show.

Showtime has nothing interesting coming up.


But HBO has:

Kovalev-Pascal
Cunningham-Glazkov
Klitschko-Jennings
Alvarez-Kirkland
Golovkin-Murray

Looks like a VERY GOOD schedule to me.

It would be even better if they showed Hughie Fury vs. Rudenko and Budler vs. Silvestre on the Golovkin card.

He doesn't manage the best in each division (Klitschko, Hernandez/Huck/Drozd, Kovalev, Ward/Froch, Golovkin, Crawford, Lomachenko/Walters,) but he does have a negative affect on some of them by managing some of their best possible opponents.

Pissing and moaning as usual....

Since when is Martin Murray an "average" middleweight?

He went to Germany to fight Felix Sturm for a world title and got a draw, AKA a win. He then went to Argentina and IMO outpointed Martinez. He has never been knocked out in 31 fights.

I think he's a solid opponent for Golovkin.
