HBO vs Showtime?

Whats up lately with them putting quality fights on the same day and same time. Why didn't we have one boxing show on last week vs two tonight. Even two weeks ago I had to make that decision of what I was going to watch Forrest/Mora Quintana/Williams vs Pavlik/Locket Ponce De Leon/Lopez. Thank god for DVR.

Showtime is better tonight. I like ShoBox too.
HBO is good usually. You can see most of the good fights on both the way it works out.

I hate how they do that. Instead of having big boxing on every saturday for 52 weeks they bull**** and try to steal viewers from each other. These belts, fighters fighting for just the love of money, viewership are hurting the sport.

Showtime! Two action fights.

HBO should be good too though

I don't mind them having events the same day, but the fact they over lap with each other is the problem. I actually like them having both cards, I get to watch 4 fights like a PPV instead of 2.

Agreed. 52 weeks of boxing would get this sport in the right direction. It would make boxing mainstream in a matter of a year.

Last weekend there were no broadcasts from either HBO or Showtime, and hardly a single interesting fight scheduled.

It's ****** - they are losing money by competing against each other on the same night.
