Comments Thread For: Canelo to Explore Options Once HBO Deal Expires After Saturday

Typical.
Boxing fans get the rough end of the stick.
Again.

Hbo has been around for so many years and have been the leading boxing broadcaster, although not as dominant as before. Lampley has a good voice but sometimes I detect bias and a lack of full boxing knowledge. H. Lederman's unnoficial scoring can be quite dodgy at times, probably because he doesnt score even rounds as such, and favoring certain styles of fighters.

Canelo doesn't need HBO... he fought there by "inertia"...

[Bronx2245]

PBC killed the PPV, and HBO is collateral damage! Max Kellerman should be on ESPN's Boxing Team!

Peter Nelson will pass on Canelo so he can focus on Superfly series. Seriously tho, he's a moron.

HBO is going to use his Truck to pack for good.

HBO is going to die for good. OH! SHlT! Canelo is going out, Gennady maybe is going out too, Jacobs is sure is going out after his final fight in October, Kovalev lost his soul and is not going to help the numbers, Super Fly 3 flop big time and I advise Bivol to get out of HBO at soon possible. PBC/Showtime/Fox are the Kings in boxing now and in second place is ESPN and DANZ, let's see what happen first in his 3 schedule dates of September and October. I am going to cancel HBO when Game of the Throne wraps up. Now I understand why HBO always put a Truck in the intro of boxing events, they are going to use this same Truck to pack all the boxing stuff and get out of here forever and die.

I won't believe hbo is done with boxing till i see it...

Probably won’t be for a few more years.

This fight in October is Jacobs last fight on HBO according to Eddie Hearn.

That's obvious. He signed a three fight deal and this is his third fight. With Hearn starting DAZN, that's a no brainer. I've been surprised to read that this is Canelo and Golovkin's last fights too though. If HBO lets them walk, it's clearly over for them. No surprise now to hear that they passed on the Kovalev-Alvarez rematch.

[MasterPlan]

We'll know in the next few months about HBOs future.

[Derranged]

No more Golovkin Kovalev or Canelo?
