Do you prefer HBO Boxing or Showtime Boxing?

HBO has most of the p4p fighters while ShowTime has better overall cards. So its a tie to me. Individual talent - HBO Quality of cards - Show

Very sad. Adults acting like six year olds.

If you could only keep 1 of them for Boxing would you keep HBO or Showtime? Showtime was advertising during the mayweather fight, ****ing oreilly thing on the screen the whole fight, and showing promos for their **** show during the pay per view, ****ing disgraceful after I paid however much I paid. All the commentators are **** besides pm. I don't know why anyone would prefer showtime.

Wait what? Max k left to Showtime?? I think he's implying Max Kellerman is garbage and incredibly biased, which is true.

I still pay for both, i think for years hbo was better even when showtime had tyson, but now showtime has taken over the number one spot, partly to do with max k., and mayweather and golden boy leaving for showtime Wait what? Max k left to Showtime??

Showtime has taken the lead this year. Before, HBO was king.

I prefer whatever channel BOXING IS ON. Seriously, network fanboyism is one of the absolute worst things to come to this board.

HBO has slipped recently...the Bradley v Marquez card did not feel PPV. The commentating was boring. Roy has a lot of knowledge but he does not speak as well as Paulie. They are missing Steward badly, Kellerman is not great but he does not speak as much as Lampley who seems to have regressed year after year. Lampley does have a GREAT voice but he needs to improve his actual commentary, he was WAY better back in the day. Im a big fan of Paulie Maliginaggi as a commentator, he explains whats going on, clearly and crisply. Mauro is more MMA-esque but he has a decent voice, he can get you amped up for the fight. Al Bernstein is fine, no complaints. I just prefer the Showtime commentators. I miss Foreman, Steward, Merchant as members of the team. I think Merchant is still around but to be fair he speaks wayyy too slowly nowadays, its understandable why he isn't. He still adds a bit with his presence and voice though. He and Lampley ARE HBO commentating as we have known it for a LONG time.

I watch both but I prefer GB to TR so Showtime it is..

If you could only keep 1 of them for Boxing would you keep HBO or Showtime? HBO has much better production quality without argument. Lamply can get on my bad side time to time but other than that I love HBO. It was an awful move for them to not work with Golden Boy anymore. With showtime I really enjoy Paulie and thats about it. I don't think the lighting and the sound levels as HBO. The replays are awful. Al is always and I mean always off about what replay is showing and describing whats happening in the replay. Jimmy Lennon Jr. is just always introducing introducing introducing. (Hes not any good) The voice actor is annoying. But as long as its a good fight/card I really don't care what network I watch it on. I always enjoy boxing and when it is on Showtime or HBO i'm almost always going to enjoy the production.

i dont care if its FNF. I got all them channels. This is like the second time this week we've had this stupid thread.....

I prefer whoever is showing the best fight that night. Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android

hbo has more dates but showtime has way better undercards, nd thats also why they dont have enough dates

I think that HBO is leagues ahead of Showtime production-wise but at the moment Showtime have a better stable of fighters(sad that I can refer to a network having it's own "stable", i know)....

HBO just overall better production values than showtime ....but fight sound for me its a lot better on showtime ...dont care about commentators all the same ..

my two favs are on Sho, so.... If I was absolutely forced to go with one it would be Sho. Mauro Renallo isn't native boxing, but he has a decent voice for play by play commentating. Shrug. Though... HBO has some guys I REALLY want to keep following... Bradley, Provodnikov, Pac... Sergio. Adonis. Rios, Mile High But Sho has Mayweather, Maidana, Garcia, Matthysse, Broner, Canelo, Hopkins actually it is officially a tie

We have network fanboys now? How sad... I thought the same thing. What ever channel their favorite fighter is on, is the channel they think is better. Lol idc as long as its boxing but as far as the commentary goes, I like Showtime. HBO is horrible. Roy goes for the black guy no matter what. Max sucks off whoever he wants to win way too much and Jim is just an idiot. They also try to convince u of certain things. Max tried to convince us we were watching greatness in crawfords fight on the Juanma Mikey card and they also tried to soften us up for the ridiculous score cards Saturday night. Trying to convince us that we were watching a close fight. I had it 9-3 Tim, 8-4 the worst.

both...but i will say that i enjoy showtime's commentating more than HBO
