    Yea I really hate that idea of going head to head with showtime. Can only hurt the sport in my eyes. When there are to great cards going on. I'd rather see a Williams Martinez rematch Pavlik Sturm and Bute vs someone in a triple header.

        HBO trying to ruin the night for Showtime's numbers, that's all this is. I'll be watching the Showtime Card just to hurt HBO, lol.....although I'll also be recording the HBO card on DVR to watch later. It really hurts both of the stations when they do this, they could seperate the events by a week and get 100% of the viewers.....

            ****** to have two doubleheaders on one night - both HBO and Showtime will lose money.

            There will be other weekends without a single really good boxing event, like this past Jan 16.

              HBO pisses me off. There are so many open weeks without boxing but they still have to go against SHO and try to steal viewers. Most people with SHO have HBO, wouldn't it be smart to schedule on a week that DOESN'T have boxing on SHO? I may be an idiot but if SHO is showing boxing and people are watching that instead of HBO doesn't that mean HBO is losing viewers. I don't understand why they continue to do ****** things like this.

                Screw Bika if he don't want to fight Green. Green vs. Bute winner gets Ward and a spot in the super 6.

                    Fuckin TV networks. Boxing is just shooting itself in the foot and going back to the old format of either crap fights or having good fights competing on the same night like is the case here.

                      I dont care, its the networks job to go head to head. Ill do what I usually do record both and watch back to back.

                      Wonder what the hold up with the Bika Green negotiations is..usually its Green who is unreliable even after signing a fight like when he ducked Echols at the last minute.
