ok, simple question, with boxing being as shit as it has recently, would it be better if showtime was the main player in broadcasting boxing, rather then hbo, would we get the fights we as fans wanted 2 c??? one disadvantage i think would be that if they super 6 styled every division, then it would be kinda shit, cuz i reckon we would have nothing 2 argue about. the pactards wouldnt b able 2 post funny chicken videos of floyd and the flomos wouldnt be able 2 do vice versa. what are ur thoughts on this???
mosely vs mora is hot garbage...hbo was smart passing up that
No shit, but that's not the point. Promoters are going to do what they want to do. The broadcasters basically just have the option to air the fight or not. That's about it.
but im sure one of showtimes demands would be to make a super 6 style tournament . so we can c the best fightin the best, the promoters wouldnt have shit 2 say about it.
hbo tried with the 140 divison.Blame the promoters,Not hbo.
mosely vs mora is hot garbage...hbo was smart passing up that
first of all it'll be a sparring match because of how Mora respects Mosely....remember when shane showed up at the contender to spar with everyone and shit? mora had nothing but respect for shane. He doesn't have the kind of killer instinct you need to beat up a guy you respect.
the promoters wouldnt have shit 2 say about it.
Um, yes they would?
Just look at Top Rank. When they don't get their way, they just broadcast the PPV themselves. And if the broadcasters tried to strong-arm promoters, others would follow suit.
Just look at Mosley vs Mora. HBO passed so Golden Boy is broadcasting the PPV themselves.
Showtime showed the last truly great fight, Castillo vs Corrales 1. While HBO may consistently host better fighters, I think Showtime is always worth watching. It saddens me that they bought into mma
You're delusional if you think boxing's problems is the TV channels and not greedy promoters.
