According to an article in the New York Times, HBO is officially leaving boxing after 45 years.

HBO Sports Executive Vice President Peter Nelson made the announcement that HBO was dropping boxing Thursday morning in a meeting with the HBO Boxing production staff.

“This is not a subjective decision,” Nelson said to the New York Times. “Our audience research informs us that boxing is no longer a determinant factor for subscribing to HBO.”

Sad, sad news. Brings a tear to my eye and an even bigger one to Uncle Jim's.

The old 24/7's of yesteryear narrated by Liev Schreiber will remain in my boxing collection and my heart forever.
