Well, since DVR is a thing I don't have to choose. But I guess I will have to decide which one to watch first, and that indicates which fight I would probably watch if I did have to choose.
As a fight fan, I'm looking forward to seeing Provo and Molina beat on each other until one man falls. Should be a foty candidate.
As a boxing fan, I enjoy watching Lomachenko do his thing. He reminds me of a young Floyd, the way he seems so comfortable. His defense, footwork, counterpunching, he makes it all seem so effortless, like it's second nature.
I suppose I'll watch the Loma fight live and then watch Provodnikov vs Molina.
I totally disagree.
Vargas vs. Salido has the potential to be FOTY, and the styles of both boxers will make an epic clash.
Who asked for this fight? Nobody.
meanwhile we don't get to see fights we wanted to see like loma vs Walters because hbo doesn't have any money to spare because they are making fights like this.
vargas vs Salido is a good style matchup, it just doesn't warrant an hbo date.
should have been a Co feature.
I'm disappointed in both cards. Hbo and showtime stay wasting money on fights that nobody is calling for.
vargas vs Salido for example. The money from that card could have been used to make Walters vs Lomachenko since a couple of hundred thousand was the reason the fight didn't get made.
Lomachenko vs martinez is gonna be one sided, just like mikey vs martinez was. Martinez just isn't that good.
Lomachenko will win at least 10 rounds.
Provodnikov vs molina will be a war, but it doesn't deserve a main event slot.
But I will go with molina vs provo. Even though I'm not excited about either card
I rather hbo and showtime show one big fight per month instead of multiple bs cards a month.
I miss the good Ole days
Hopkins vs calzaghe
Mosley vs margarito
Cotto vs Clottey
Pacquiao vs marquez 1
Dawson vs pascal
Ward vs froch
Broner vs Maidana
Vazquez vs marquez
Donaire vs darchinyan
now we get vargas vs Salido and provodnikov vs molina as main events. Smh

Re these fights shown in Boxnation in the UK?
I think only the Lomachenko one.
Uh oh, I'll probably have boxnation in the background whilst I stream the provo fight
Sometimes cards like Molina/Provo are fun. Dont expect them to be called ATG's anytime soon, though this is NSB so im not counting it out, but every now and then its fun to get a fight like this.
And doesnt anyone have a DVR?
They are definitely fun, just not worth it when the money could go towards making bigger fights. Especially with a minimal budget.
Like we get vargas vs Salido and Lomachenko vs martinez. When we could have got walters vs Lomachenko instead.
Then the only fights the people actually wanna see from hbo are gonna be ppv. Crawford vs Postol and ward vs Kovalev.
I'm on the verge of getting rid of hbo and showtime. And just streaming all fights.
Boxing is the only reason I have hbo and showtime and if I'm paying to see vargas vs Salido it's just not worth it.
That **** should have been on the canelo vs khan card

I think if both fights are at the sime time I'm going to pick Provodnikov vs. Molina.
I chose Lomencheko vs Martinez because thatll go 12rds but thank God I have DVR so I dont have to make choices like that haha

Both will be roughly 3am UK time and the Lomachenko fight will go 12 so I'll just record it and watch it the next day. Ruslan-Molina it is
Re these fights shown in Boxnation in the UK?

Provodnikov-Molina is offering the better night of fights than Martinez-Lomachenko, so I'm catching the Showtime broadcast (following Martinez-Lomachenko on my phone), and possibly catching the fight after the fact if it's any good.
Heading out to a new sports bar for the fights anyway (my old spot seemingly just pulled Showtime/HBO, though they do still carry the PPVs); odds are high the new spot will carry both fights, but I'll be focusing on the Provodnikov one.
I haven't really given the match-up much thought, which probably means I'm unconsciously assuming Loma will win. Essentially, I'm just picking the match-up that will provide the most violence.
Great choice lol
Do you think Martinez has no chance? I think it should be a competitive fight and the best guy loma has fought in a while.

Ruslan/Molina, no second-guessing.
