    Too bad these are the fights they always replay on their own network. I like the deal though.

      I saw Corrales-Castillo today. It's great because it's the ENTIRE broadcast - Showtime graphics, commentary, etc. unlike the fights from HBO.

          There was an awsome Lacy fight in the co-feature, which was fun to watch again.

          But who would ever want to watch ANY Klitschko fight again? Unless its Brewster 1 or Sanders... or just a highlight reel of all the times he went down against Peter.

              I think Wladimir is exciting to watch when he wants to be.

              And yeah, that Lacy/Vanderpool fight was pretty good. I think Ouma/Phillips was on that card as well. But are they showing the whole card or just that 1 fight?

                depends on the length of the main event and the undercards.

                In this case they just has the Lacy fight and the Klitschko fight.

                But for example, last night they played CASTILLO-CORRALES 2, and they had the Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. fight, the Arce-Hussein 2 fight, AND the main event.

                So its a really good setup they have going
