    And they have to put the rest of their money into Hopkins/Stevenson for the 100k people that'll bother to watch it
    Yep. Had to laugh when Yvon Michel was out there saying how Stevenson made over twice as much as he'd made on HBO for the Fonfora bout.

    And of course, Michel kept citing the Ward-Rodriguez fees, presumably with Haymon chirping them in his ear.

    Probably thought they'd get a similarly sweet deal for Stevenson from HBO.

    Glad they didn't.

    Let SHO overpay.

    Showtime being Showtime.

      He did what he did to make money, so good deal for him. He should be looking at a safety net now though in the form of fights after the big fight.



      Showtime might not want more fights afterwards since it'd have a hefty pricetag with meh results.

      HBO might not be over it since the E-Rod incident... he still has one more fight there

        Twice the price for half the results. See how his numbers exponentially rose over each fight then fell off a cliff for Showtime? Hahaha
