Haye vs Wlad, July 2nd, Imtech Arena in Hamburg

[El Kabong]

Just seen HBO are showing the fight in the US and that 150 channels around the world will be showing the fight either live or on delay. This is getting big and I can't wait!

It'll be BIG for you alright...a big disappointment

I hope you don't disappear when Wlad gets laid out. I've been working on a nice name and sig for you. Plus I want all that rep too!!

Hope it's not on PPV and just on regular HBO world championship boxing for the US.

Even though it's a heavyweight unification, I can't imagine either guy is a big enough draw in the States to warrant a PPV. It's an extremely anticipated match for us hardcore fans, but both fighters are foreign and I would assume that most Americans don't know much about them.

I'd say by now even "casual" American fans know who Wlad is but maybe not Haye. I hope HBO picks this fight up and shows it on a delay here in North America. (HBO would be fools not to) I agree that it likely won't be shown on HBO PPV here in N.A., just the regular HBO WCB, et al.

Great news that a date and venue has finally been sorted. I suppose Wlad wanted the later date as it gives him longer to say goodbye to his belts.

Will have to keep a watch out for ticket prices and travel info.
