ESPN must be feeling like sh*t for having cut that deal with HBO. Bet they were banking Mayweather to be with HBO. The whole deal with HBO must have centered around having more exclusive access to Mayweather. Now they are probably kicking themselves cause theyre going to miss out on segments, interviews...
I think part of the deal is to show HBO 24/7, if that is the case then YEAH I think they was hoping to show Mayweather Episodes so with him jumping to Showtime...yeah it does kinda suck for them
Who cares, ESPN don't give a sh1t about Boxing anyway!
ESPN is still going to cover Floyd. Him signing to Showtime isn't going to prevent ESPN from interviewing Floyd. That would be incredibly counter productive considering ESPN covers...........SPORTS. All HBO is to ESPN is a parent company, they're both still separate networks.
Disney is ESPN's parent company.
Your right but the fact is there was a reason for making a deal between hbo and espn. They will still get interviews and cover the event but they probably had bigger plans for mayweathers next fight now have to take a back seat to CBS and Showtime.
