Bivol vs alvarez is a better fight, kovalev showed last night he doesnt have it in him anymore, lazy, lethargic and out of shape.
Kathy Duva's marinating didn't work out

When Mayweather retired, he was close to finalizing a rematch with De La Hoya, and everyone was aware of that.I'm not buying your talking points you got straight from your idol. Excuses! froid simply didn't want those fights at the time. Too risky so he faked retired when the welterweight division was at it's best! too bad we never got those match ups in their prime and I blame mayweather jr for that not happening.
Meanwhile, Cotto was locked into TWO fights by top Rank.
But anyway, back to Kathy, Bivol, and Kovalev.Comment

What’s HBO vs Showtimes subscription base
Do the rating count people who watch on the Showtime app l. you think that doesn’t matter
What fights can HBO offer after Canelo / Golovkin rematch not involving those 2 That can generate any sort of Buzz among boxing fans
Kovalev who has 3 losses in 5 fights was the networks 3rd biggest name and just got beat down by a a fighter who has no fans and who isn’t tied down to their network and HBO basically lost whatever power they had at 175
HBO went from the industry leader a position they held for decades to 3rd place in less then 3 years behind Showtime and Espn as far as having fights fans want to see and will probably slip into 4th or 5th place relatively soon if the Fox deal is official and once DAZn gets up and running
HBO now has any sort of clout in 2 divisions MW and Superfly. Their 3rd biggest name at MW is probably going to DAZN when his contracts up and let’s be honest No one really gives a f.uck about Superfly ( yeah a Sor Rungsi / Estrada rematch would be cool but besides that nothing )
How the f.uck can You think HBO isnt on their last legsComment

You're the one who should look at everything.he actually took less money to fight baldomir after the payout to top rank(simple math) but he also took less money to fight judah and mitchell instead of margarito. once again look at everything not just one moment in time that you think proves floyd wanted to fight. so many opportunities lost over and over and thats how you end up with his resume. its no accident he "missed" everyone.
Had Floyd re-upped with Top Rank to fight Margarito he never would have gotten the De La Hoya fight.
Arum said Mayweather also asked for $20 million to fight De La Hoya, a fight Arum said he wasn't interested in participating in.
"That's not in the cards," Arum said. "He wants $20 million for the De La Hoya fight? It's not there. Sometimes, my man, you gotta know when to hold 'em and when to fold 'em.
