The first time I saw Ricky Hatton, David Estrada, Chris Smith, Jameel McCline, Paulie Malignaggi, Kid Diamond, Mike Arnaoutis, Rico Hoye, Sam Peter it was on ShoBox
ShoBox also had Rocky Juarez, Juan Diaz, Kermit Cintron before HBO ever started showing them...
I like Steve Farhood's analysis and I like the production on the show, even though it's below HBO's Boxing After Dark. With ShoBox, Showtime shows boxing more than HBO, and the fights, though often featuring lesser names, are often better than the big boys on HBO...
i agree with that. you gotta remember the guys on showbox are trying to make thier name. they are going that extra mile
I like it, but I think that HBO After Dark is better..
hbo after dark again are higher ranked fighters. usually guys on the verge of ppv status. showbox is showing guys that only have small handfull of fights on thier record. some of them have more but the intent is to showcase the new talent. something boxing after dark isn't trying to do. they are trying to push these guys over the ppv mark so they can make some more ppv money.
