Poor production at Showtime

[neils7147933]

Why is it that in a fight that doesn't even warrant an undercard that has mercilessly hyped, Mitchell goes back to the ropes, bobbing and taking punishment, and I've got to guess whether he's still up or he's taken a knee until I see Mitchell fall forward?

They couldn't even show the knockdown from another angle between rounds or after the fight. Are you telling me that Showtime can't afford to have enough cameras or cameras in the right spots so it's just dumb luck if we get to see the action once it moves to a certain area of the ring?

Needless to say, I was disappointed with Round 2 because of this amateur hour production. This is pay cable and Showtime is #2 - partly because of this right here. This was a big time fight and this was a definite weakness in their presentation.

your so right
its crap like this that makes me realize why i dont get showtime
plus their movies ***in suck nutz
bets movie ive seen so far is
legally blonde 2 and that **** sux

back to boxing
luckily i didnt have to pay
Free Pre View Weekend
O yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
it feels like a freakin WWF show style
but not even cuz WWF has tons of cams and good angles of the action
felt lil like Fox Celebrity boxing
plus these commentators kept calling the wrong punches
and they even thought mitchell stunned kosta when kosta landed a clear nice short left hook i the end of 2

i hope this krap doesnt deter HBO and other events form coming to Glendale
i was going to go down and see if i could catchem arriving
but ahhhh *** it
its just an old kosta "thoughts pre fight"
and shamba mitchell
