Michel doesn't rule out Kovalev fight next year

[AllBoxingAD]

That's the whole point.

Michel knows Duva isn't leaving HBO for the fight, so she isn't going to a purse bid.

So it doesn't help them to keep their number secret if he really wants the fight.

He can get a number from Haymon and go to HBO and Duva and say...this is our price for the fight, if you can't match it there's no deal.

You are going in circles.

If Michel knows Duva cant outbid her, you dont think Duva knows this as well???

Come on man. Stop pretending Duva pulled out because she just didnt know what would happen.

Michel already knows Haymon is ready to put more money into this fight then HBO would. Duva knows that as well. Everybody knows that. Its not a big secret, they are keeping a tight budget and sticking to it.

The fighters lose because that exclusive deal limits their earning power.

Who are these Quackenson people kidding? They have avoided this fight like a plague from day one and fans don't expect to see anything different from these disgraceful people.

What's disgusting is they never stop fooling people.

[The Big Dunn]

As has been detailed, she did this before the PBC announcement.

But she didn't ask for the purse bid.

She wanted a negotiation period.

Michel is the one who wanted the quick purse bid.

Why didn't she check with HBO before going to the WBC?

She says in the article that "Sergey is contractually tied to HBO and we can't go to a purse bid. We can't fight the fight if we lose the bid."

Does this make sense to you?

They had the contract in place in Nov 2014 when she asked WBC to make Kov the mandatory. So why wasn't the HBO deal an issue at this point?

Why do I have to repeat myself:

1. They've signed an extension since
2. Nobody knew what kind of money Haymon had behind him

Of course they knew Haymon had a ton of money. you are ridiculous.

Mr. 117-111 killed any credibility you had, which is why you keep avoiding his post.

She resigned after pulling out, which means when she pulled out, HBO wasn't an issue. When she asked WBC, she had a fight left on HBO deal, which means HBO cleared it.

She and Kov had a choice, they made a choice you killed Stevenson/haymon for.

That you will not do same tells us all we need to know.

[HeroBando]

And another thing. You know you done ****ed up right?


Roc Nation didn't mind taking on heavy losses early on and bid the shit out of Quillin Korobov. But Bidding against Roc Nation would have bought Haymon down and he isn't in that business. He should make a more responsible bid. So Quillin backed out of that fight.


And you all KILLED QUillin for that. How is this any different? A fighter turning down the most money he's ever made AND a shot at the lineal title? Quillin turned down a meaningless paper belt against a no name.

This Quillin thing is lame, its not like he was Sho exclusive, never even headlined

Again thicko, the best deal available to Stevenson is 50/50 on HBO vs Kovalev. Looks like he won't take it

There is no 50/50 deal on HBO.

Duva also wrote to Michel and outlined a proposal to make the fight without the purse bid but insisting the fight be on HBO

Outlining is not making an official offer.

[-PBP-]

Dudes are so one sided. Blind to their own contradictions.

[sicko]

I see one side wanting to make the fight, while the other is more Honored to be Employees for HBO

Good luck to Kovalev, he will have regrets signing with HBO once HBO run out of fighters at 175 for Kovalev to fight. Kovalev vs Isaac Chilemba will be the biggest fight HBO will be able to Provide him lol
