HBO head cheese Ross Greenberg had recently buried himself with his own words, by stating that the Heavyweight division was dead to American fans. I know that wasn't his exact quote, but the action behind it was the same. HBO would no longer be covering the Klitschko brothers, until it got more interesting (Adamek or Haye). Now, I don't know what is taking Showtime so long to snap this up (they can't move the date for you... get real), but within weeks of this statement, Mr. Greenberg's ego was put to the test. Klitschko has now been paired with the last fighter ever to be competitive with him, in a rematch, for the undisputed Heavyweight title. In a move that should surprise no one, Wladimir Klitschko vs. Samuel Peter will still not be covered by HBO. Oh, Juanma and Gamboa engaging in tune-up fights was covered, but the legit Heavyweight championship will not be.
