HBO rejects Ward/Oosthuizen

[aldo5408]

All I'm saying is why HBO would reject Oosthuizen - it's about the money bro, that's all. Of course Ward is proven, we all know that. From what it looks like, Hershman doesn't want to pay whatever Ward is asking for that particular opponent. I'm sure HBO & Ward will work something out soon. It's really not even a big story, networks reject fights all the time, business as usual.

True but like now hbo accepted a fight for Kov vs Mohammed like man, that doesn't make sense. Hbo should only accept (pay) for competitive big fights. Because it's not fair that kov got to fight Agnew and carrapollo on HBO and thats cool. you know what I'm saying

Dig up Lucian Bute, Ward wanted to fight him before and he's ranked #7 by the WBA

That seems logical... Bute is a name, and his management knows there isn't many big fights for him after he stunk vs pascal

For sure, and Bute is a Carl Froch victim as well so they can play that up for a future rematch between Ward and Froch.

Kovalev probably got 300k for those, only 500k for Hopkins

The WBA will order the Ward-Froch II purse bid in 10 days. As an Andre Ward fan, I want to see this fight next for Andre. Whenever, wherever.

got to be what hbo is waiting on to see if it happens

I believe Bute signed with Haymon.

HBO accepted Kessler for Ward. Problem was that Ward (surprisingly) didn't want to travel.

I'm stunned!... What? Ward didn't want to travel to Denmark in order to fight a retired Kessler? It's a big surprise for me...

Bute IS signed with Haymon... For an unknown reason...
