            HBO, as we don't get Showtime here.

            If I had the choice though, it would still be HBO as first choice.

            Daniel Ponce De Leon vs. Juan Manuel Lopez is going to be Epic!! Forget about Pavlik vs Lockett, that is just some unneeded icing on incredible cake.

            It bugs me though that the Williams Quintana rematch is going to be on a network not offered, but hey, Sopcast can record!hehe

                  Well I'm probably going to the Showtime card since its semi-local (tri-state area). I'll tivo both though.

                    Sometimes Showtime starts their fights a little earlier, so maybe I can get in some of the Williams/Quintana match before JML/DPL starts. I'll try to watch both, but I will probably go with Showtime because I like there main even just a little better. I'll see the HBO main event in the morning as they usually show the replay pretty early.
