SHOWTIME made a deal with ESPN CLASSIC??

Lol Steward is calling Wlad's right hand "The missle"

Hahaha, just watched that again for nth time yesterday. I mean shit that is one of my favorite fights, but you know the saying "too much of a good thing..."

I noticed this last night. It's the full Showtime broadcast that they show..original intro, graphics, broadcast team, etc. A lot of HBO fights are shown on ESPN Classic but they seem to only sell them the footage and not the graphics or broadcasting. I hate that, it's cheesy as hell have Tessitore literally act as the broadcaster for a 1992 fight.

yea for Gatti/Mayweather Joe Tessitore calls the fight

HBO has sold fights to ESPN Classic but its very rare. Gatti-Mayweather was HBO PPV and its been shown on Classic a lot. I think the majority of those fights are of the international broadcasts. Because none of them have the HBO commentary.

yeah, thats not a fight HBO really wants to keep away hidden. They have a lot of fights like that, I guess that one just got the call.

great to see. HBO wont ever do this unfortunently

This is great news. Showtime has had many great fights through the years. They made a deal for ppv too because i recall they hyped up the Vargas v. Mayorga fight ppv by showing Vargas and Mayorga past fights then there fight. So the deal must be a continuation deal. Where espn classics hypes up all ppv fights.

wooooow thats really great. Does a certain fight between a certain Diego Corrales and a certain Jose Luis Castillo belong to this library??? Probably not, probably belongs to the promoter. sry bro, didnt see it Lol, I'm fucking with you Kball.

Yes, ESPN bought the Showtime library. I heard it in an ad for the show last night. wooooow thats really great. Does a certain fight between a certain Diego Corrales and a certain Jose Luis Castillo belong to this library??? Probably not, probably belongs to the promoter. I heard this guy named DWiens421 made a topic about this less than 5 minutes before you did! sry bro, didnt see it

Shit now we won't have to see Bowe-Holyfield over and over again, oh wait.....

Showtime is airing a fight right now on ESPN CLASSIC. An old jeff Lacy fight followed by a Klitschko fight. Did they make some kind of deal where they are gonna put some of their fights on ESPN Classic??? Cause that would be awsome, Showtime has some great fights. O yea, and the SHowtime announcers are on there too, so its authentic and realy great. Anyone here of anything??? Yes, ESPN bought the Showtime library. I heard it in an ad for the show last night.
