HBO vs Showtime

HBO might have better fighters but SHOWTIME is killing when it comes to the quality of the fights.

This is a good fight too. HBO ppv is doing it's thing, but Showtime might be a bit more fan friendly lol.

Shotime shows better fights but the production isn't always as good.
And that's what casual fans notice. Us hardcores love Shobox to see the up and comers and well as the championship boxing shows.

This is what happens when you don't have your head stuck up a particular promoters ass all the time. Even after they serve you up BS on consecutive occasions. I like Bad Chad in this one.

Dawson is too young, too fast and too good for Tarver.

i hope tarver gets ktfo i cant stand the guy

[DoomCity202]

But Dawson did get his ass beat against Johnson.

True! Road Warrior Glenn aka "The Dean" of the Divison has done that to all the top LHWs! so Chad shouldn't feel too bad about that night!

Something tells me Tarver in this one....

I think the build up will be great, Tarver is always entertaining, even if you do get sick of the guy after listening to him speak for 5 minutes lol. The build up could be very important, if Tarver gets under Dawson's skin then we could see Chad with a messy head come fight night, remember he is young and some of Tarver's comments seem to have gotten to him already...
