R.I.P., HBO Boxing, 1973-2018

What started with Foreman-Frazier concludes with Bivol-Smith on Nov. 24th

After 45 years in the business, HBO has come to the conclusion that boxing is no longer a determinant factor for subscribing to the network, therefore the Dmitriy Bivol-Joe Smith Jr bout will be the last bout to air on the network. The New York times reports that the October 27th Jacobs-Derevyanchenko will be the last bout to air, however Boxingtalk is certain that it's the November 24th Bivol-Smith bout, which is likely heading to Atlantic City.
