Comments Thread For: HBO Statement on Mayweather Going To Showtime - Page 2

Freedom.

Showtime is clearly better than HBO now.

HBO just wants to help Al Haymon and Bob Arum showcase their fighters against lesser opponents like Gavin Rees and Ruslan Provodnikov.

Showtime will show an occasional mismatch, but generally only when someone cancels and needs to be replaced. They don't deliberately set up mismatches.

Al Bernstein is the best color guy in boxing hands down. He's AMAZING.

As for fights. HBO

Showtime has improved. HBO needs something cause it currently lacks pop

Al Bernstein is as good as they are in terms of calling a fight.

Plus Jim Gray is light years better than Max Kellerman with the post fight interviews
