    Showtime's non-PPVs feel like PPV

    Anyone else feel like tonight's main event has a PPV like feel going in to it? This is only further added by this crazy co-main event. Slugfest! Gotta appreciate Showtime's few and far inbetween gems they put out. So many fight of year type candidates end up on their network. This looks like one for sure!

    I love the fights Showtime puts on. HBO demands their fighters to fight certain fighters and if they lose, it doesn't effect them. It's too political there. Showtime has less politics which makes good fights.

      I wish you could throw some of these fighters on undercards to mega PPV events. It would really make paying 60 bucks well worth it.

        And, Showtime does not even have the budget of HBO. Imagine what they could do if they did? WTF is HBO doing?

          Jimmy lennon Jr. also is 10 times the announcer of Michael Buffer. He actually seems like he is promoting the fight. Not himself.

            I find the quality of Showtime's events a notch above in quality over HBO's.

            Showtime has a more grass roots way of thinking when it comes to putting together a fight card. HBO is all about showcasing stars and stops there. Showtime puts together competitive good fights with good fighters and don't cater to any promoters etc.
