Showtime vs HBO promoting..

All I know is that 24/7 blows All Access out of the water. TBE himself admits All Access is fake. It's staged. :D

All I know is that 24/7 blows All Access out of the water. lmao for the Mayweather ones it is because he edits it. he was far more entertaining when he was an HBO fighter I was a huge fan back then. I loved the trash talk

I agree about Showtime. They should replace Espinosa thought cause between him Haymon they are going to bring their ratings down. HBO was great until they began acting like promoters and over hyping their star fighters. They just went overboard which is what killed the credibility of their commenter's. But I love their documentaries, focus on the sport, training and fight analysis more than Showtime.

The networks dont need to promote a fighter. That is the PROMOTER job. Andrade is with a small company. If he was with TR we will be reading about greatness and blah blah blah.

Saul Alvarez kinda..

Whichever channel has al haymon usually put on a subpar product.

Bring back Steve Albert! Dat Mauro guy is horrible, it's like rasslin announcing.

Thank you Oscar for first creating the network fanboy war and then doing a "turncoat" and continuing it.

Main Events' Kathy Duva commented something of this nature about HBO. She wished that they get more proactive when controversies arise. They're like Haymon's counterpart. They don't respond to any criticism, good or bad. Even then they still beat Showtime by a landslide last year, despite losing all of Schaefer's fighters. http://www.doghouseboxing.com/Media-Img-2/Boxing-Top-25-2013-Ratings-HBO-vs-SHOWTIME.jpg

Both all access and 24/7 annoy me when they get grandiose. The last episodes last 5 minutes always drive me nuts, talking about the solar system aligning and all that BS.

Both actually SUCK AT IT to be honest, they still Terrestrial Radio Commercials to Promote/Sell Fights LMFAO who the FUK still listens to Terrestrial Radio? :no: Until one of them build up another star and a major draw in boxing NOT NAMED PACQUIAO or MAYWEATHER, that is how you determine who is better at Promoting. Boxing for HBO and Showtime does not bring ratings to the Network, both struggling to reach 1 Million Views which is laughable to be honest for those that remember the ratings they use to pull in with Roy Jones, Evander Holyfield, Lennox Lewis and others in the past and that was when HBO and Showtime was is far less Homes So both suck at it but HBO is the better overall network and has the bigger Audience because it is Better Network. Not many people are subscribed to either Network strictly for boxing though!

I personally think HBO does a way better job, everything showtime does is a ripoff of what HBO does. 24/7 > All Access Face off > whatever showtime equivalent is portrait of a fighter > whatever showtime equivalent is 2 days > whatever showtime equivalent is greatest hits > whatever showtime equivalent is coutdown show> whatever showtime equivalent is HBO> showtime IMO All Access is dead now isn't it? Thought Mayweather killed it yesterday.

Thats because HBO was always the kingping. But im talking bout the last 2 years when Showtime made the deal with Mayweather. Just look at all these prospects from Showtime, they are promoting them way better than HBO. Showtime is in my opinion better in makin stars..

Mhm, maybe HBO is more professional, but I honestly think showtime is better for new fans. I think if guys like Rigondeaux, Crawford, Andrade etc. were at showtime they would be much bigger. Showtime promotes their fighters much better for example: Santa cruz, Thurman, Broner, Porter etc. Well actually boxing should just be at ESPN, that would be the best lmao

dont really care, but i do prefer it when roy jones is commentating

Name one star that wasn't built on HBO... Nuff said...

SHowtime has a bigger budget and has done more involving social media. I am not a consumer that utilizes social media a lot or goes on the internet to watch fights, just TV. when I watch a showtime production it just looks and feels amateur, especially when Maurio whatever his name speaks. Whatever showtime does well they lost a lot of momentum and fan goodwill with the cards they've put on the last 6-8 weeks. they are going to really need to step it up.

All I know is that 24/7 blows All Access out of the water. This right here, I still remember the chilling epilogue of the Martinez vs Chavez 24/7 series, "Fighting is about knowing yourself, knowing your limitations,...", great stuff, hyped the fight for me that much more.

The last all access was pure ****, The canelo-lara wasnt too bad becuase i guess Mayweather wasnt the EP

All I know is that 24/7 blows All Access out of the water.
