Manny P vs Vargas WON'T be on HBO

[Kigali]

He attacked him for not fighting Crawford when its obvious why he didn't - he didn't want to jeopardize a fight with Floyd.

There is no fight with Floyd.

Mayweather is retired for good.

Pathetic fight but berto was worse?

Not as bad as Algeiri and Rios and the gullibles swallowed that like a roast dinner , Vargas is the easiest money grab he could have taken thats why he chose him .

Shhh. Manny is still asleep, dreaming.

Disagree. Prior to that they discussed Manny/Crawford on 1st take and Max talked about Manny always taking on the best guys and was very complimentary.

Once it was Vargas and HBO wasn't doing it, he killed the fight calling it a cash grab and then topping thta by saying Manny was taking the lesser fight for less money, completely contradicting what he said previously.

I used to like Kellerman. He's becoming abit of a joke recently. Or perhaps I'm only just noticing it now.

This proves even more that Kellerman is an HBO lapdog. When he found out Manny wasn't going to be on HBO he attacked him. All of his attacks are against non-HBO fighters. He has no credibility.

He's not an HBO lapdog, he's an employee....and that makes him an HBO mouthpiece, which he's been for a while now.

Kellerman's been **** since he started at ESPN.

Man Manny must have really pissed off the bosses at hbo with some of those gay comments.

He's just getting tossed to thr side.

Arum tells Mitchell Abramson of Ring that he'll talk with SHO.

Other options are ESPN and Turner.

“It’s going to be distributed on Dish (Network), Direct TV, etc., etc., and now we’re working on a distribution partner to fill the role of HBO,” Arum said in a phone interview. “Definitely it’s not going to be HBO. HBO had a contract and decided to pass because it was two weeks in front of their Ward-Kovalev fight.”

Arum hasn’t reached out to Showtime yet about carrying Pacquiao-Vargas, he said. Showtime told ******.com on Monday it’s open to carrying Pacquiao’s next fight but no discussions have taken place yet with Showtime boxing chief Stephen Espinoza. “I haven’t spoken to them,” Arum said. “But there would be no impediment to that.”

Arum is currently vacationing in Aspen. “When I get back next week, Stephen will be one of the guys I’m calling,” he said. The other options to carry the fight are Turner and ESPN, he said.
