Comments Thread For: Lemieux-N'Dam Tops Big Card at Bell Centre, June 20

[Fetta]

Yeah, I was tempted to see if some cheap tix popped up for the Ward fight, as I'm not about to spend much on it, but with Porter-Broner, and Lemieux-N'Dam on tv, makes no sense to go to what looks like the 3rd best option that night.

Any outside chance it ends up on HBO2, or is it almost certain to go on Fox Sports 1?

Bought 2 tix for $90 (actually 80 something). Lower level seats, upper bowl not open. Decent seats for price.

Good day of boxing. Shoulda made this an afternoon show

[Hougigo]

hopefully there will be US tv for this bout, but with Ward on BET and Broner-Porter on NBC on the same night I doubt it.......

What I think. And with GYM pestering with legal action, I doubt they really chase it

[PunchyPotorff]

I'll watch this one any day over Ward vs anyone. Lemieux should take this one, that is if N'Dam's movement isn't too much for him.

Hey Dan, is HBO going to televise Lemieux vs N'Dam?

HBO said it is not doing the fight.

Bad move for HBO not doing the Lemieux fight. Why not hype him up to fight GGG.

HBO told me it wanted to do the fight but could not accommodate it in June. Golden Boy is under pressure to get it done in a certain mandated time frame by the IBF and the needs of the IBF and HBO did not mesh. Therefore, HBO is not doing the bout.

That day is too crowded and it'll most likely be an evening show

I think Lemieux takes N'Dam out, a case of bricks meeting glass.

Assuming he can get in range.

Even though he was KD'd six times, I don't think he has a glass chin. Guerrero... now that's glass

If HBO really does pass, hopefully GB gets it on Tru tv so that HBO can use the highlites to build the winner vs Golovkin.
