good so i can watch hbo too

The super six is the thing to watch regardless what is on. Green struggle with one of the Simms brother that at that point didn't even had fought in a while. Ward is gonna do a number on him, he has a punchers chance but Ward is simply to good. Froch and Kessler should be an all out WAR

[The Great Shark]

Yeah I'm not sure how Mangler's going to do against the Bay Area native but either way it should be a great fight.

This makes sense

I really hope this postponement will happen. This HBO show and showtime presentation happening on the same day was really disappointing. I'm glad that I'll be able to watch both shows. As for the promoters (Goosen and DiBella), well I won't feel sad for them, they're responsible for this (even though, honestly, HBO is the main culprit).
Anyways, it's all good for the fans so... Good for us!

When ever they fight, I have Ward stopping Green and I have Kess beating Froch.

Meh, I would've preferred to watch it sooner. Anyhow it's gonna be a good watch. War Kessler!

To play devil's advocate, this would be a really shady move by Showtime for a couple of reasons.

First being that many of Froch's fans have probably already made travel arrangements to Denmark for the original date. Showtime has been advertising the 17th for months and it is reasonable to expect that fans would have already made costly reservations.

Second, with both of these networks being subscription services and anyone having a subscription to both probably also has a DVR or Tivo service, I fail to see how this affects most fans. Air both on the same night; I don't really care. I'll watch one and record the other. Anyone who subscibes to both channels and doesn't have a DVR... still not a big deal. Watch one live and the other on the west coast delayed feed or on the replay the next morning.

If Showtime execs back down from HBO, they're being huge vaginas. They had the date months earlier and they're the ones touting their "groundbreaking" tournament. No need to tuck tail and run the other way.

I don't quite get all the love for Kessler. To me, he hasn't been all that impressive. Maybe it's the tatts. I will go out on a limb and say that Mikkel's shot, that Froch is going to score a surprisingly easy KO, and that Kessler will drop out of the Super Six after this fight.
