What is Showtime thinking?

they always do that shit bro...easy...catch the HBO card first, then catch the shotime replay which is usually as soon as the card is over not like HBO which shows the replay like 2 hours after the card

Peterson Bradley will be an awesome fight and is worth watching twice saturday. I think they dont have the huge names they havent fought huge opponents, but they are both unbelievable fighters who will hold their own against any name at 140. There are far too many quality fights on one night, but being that I live 3 blocks from the UIC pavilion I'm gonna have to watch the stacked HBO card live. I am recording peterson tho and will watch it immediately upon leaving the venue.

Not owning Showtime! I ordered Showtime for the Super Six. I should have asked for a DVR with it. =( Don't worry about it bro showtime will repeat it later that night. We gonna throw a carne asada that day wtach the hbo fights then later watch the showtime fight. 5 fights and i think 4 of them will be damn good besides the repeat of the vitali fight

big fights are always on saturday....... anyway......im watching showtime mostly(though flipping between channels a bit)......rojas-darch starts earlier i think, and bradley-peterson>>>vit-johnson and ortiz-diaz......then catch diaz beats malignaggi 2...then watch the showtime card again...(mexico's delayed feed)..and download the other fights to watch on sunday....

shobox is on fridays and showtime championship boxing is on saturdays. it's been like that for as long as i can remember. where have you been? Not owning Showtime! I ordered Showtime for the Super Six. I should have asked for a DVR with it. =(

For as long as I can remember Friday was Showtime, Saturday was HBO. All the sudden, Showtime is having their fights on Saturdays? HBO has a great triple header featuring Diaz v. Malianaggi, Wlad v. Johnson, and Ortiz v. Antonio Diaz. Showtime has a decent card with Bradley v. Peterson and Vic v. Rojas. Problem is they are happening at the same time. My world is turned upside down. Is this an attempt by Showtime to muscle in on the market? Are they riding on the success of the Super Six to take over as the premier boxing network? What do you take from all of this? Which fights will you be watching? shobox is on fridays and showtime championship boxing is on saturdays. it's been like that for as long as i can remember. where have you been?

Rather watch Bradley-Peterson then HBO's card, so yeah.

It doesn't start at the same time, Showtime starts at 6 pm Pacific, while HBO's starts at 7:15, although one will overlap the other. I will DVR the other while using the PIP option (picture in a picture) so you can watch both at the same time...

showtime should be careful just because they have a stable of good fighters and the super 6 behind them doesn't mean that they can muscle in on HBO's territory. this reminds me of what setanta did with sky, in both cases the smaller broadcaster seems to be trying too much too soon.

HBO is part of my cable package (free), Showtime is $15 a month extra, looks like I'm watching Diaz-Malignaggi. Hopefully, since HBO blacked out Bute-Andrade in Canada, and left me with 2 options - a shitty internet stream, or a $60 PPV buy. Canada's boxing fans thank you.

recording both watching hbo then watching sho thanks to the magic of tivo :fing02:

truth be told, i think bradley takes him easy im all for the Diaz v Mal rematch, love watching a Klitschko dominate, and would like to see what Ortiz brings to the table after being owned like that... on the SHO card, im more interested in seeing Vic fight! nah peterson will easily beat bradley. timothy does nothing special. hands speed is average, power is below average, defense average. peterson will win 9 rounds to 3.

Break out the DVR my man.

That is why everyone should own a DVR. But for what it's worth I think the best match up and the most fan friendly fight of the night is going to be Peterson/Bradley. A classic come forward fighter against a precision counter puncher. Plus both are undefeated so neither knows how to lose.

They're thinking that they want to show boxing on a Saturday.

Yeah, I am hoping i'll be able to stagger the fights so I can watch most of them. I might just watch HBO's on Saturday and download the others Sunday, if only because I like HBO's commentators better.

DVR my friend thats what i've always done but since i cancelled SHO recently, i'll just watch the HBO fight and then download the SHO one on sunday

I'm a Showtime boy :luvbed:
