Pacquiao vs. Mosley might be headed to Showtime (PPV)???

[RoyJonesJrp4pno1]

Double-edged sword here for both HBO & Arum. Has its positives and negatives on each side. Showtime is going to have to step up big time to match what would've been HBO's budget. Plus, the channel simply doesn't have the same viewership to promote it in the same fashion. Should be interesting - although there seems to be a lot more chatter about this than facts.

Arum always talks about putting fights on network tv or Showtime but always goes back to HBO.

Mayweather 2009= 1 fight

Mayweather 2010 = 1 fight

HBO is the #1 boxing network on TV.

Do you guys really think HBO is really worried about Arum working with Showtime when everyone knows HBO is the cash cow in the business? Fighters want to fight on HBO not Showtime. HBO pays fighters a lot more and have a bigger budget for boxing. HBO has more boxing fans.

Who gives a **** if Arum and Manny go to Showtime? HBO will still have the biggest cash cow in the world, the biggest cash cow in the UK, and the future cash cow in Canelo.

Who does Arum have besides Cotto and Manny? Cotto is at the end of his career and Manny has like 5 fights left.

Canelo already sold out the Staples Center by himself and carried the PPV. He's going to sell out the Honda Center next.

Bad move IMO. They need 24/7 to help sell the fight and Showtime doesn't have enough subscribers for a fight camp series to be effective.

**** hbo!!!! I hope Bob"The Pimp"Arum chooses Showtime. They show way more better fights in my opinion, Hbo aint running **** lol, they can keep showing andrea berto and ***** khan fights for all I care **** em

[M.I Truth ?]

Showtime still does PPV? When was the last fight that was on Showtime PPV?

Mayorga-Vargas is the last one I can recall

Those who think going from HBO to Showtime is a step up, are only kidding themselves. HBO means serious business now. They want to put an end to mismatches and fights that Arum wants to shove down boxing fans throats. Because being hardcore boxing fans, you give in to these crappy match ups. Next up, one of my favorite fighters, Andre Berto, HBO need to shape up and stop babying Berto. The Ortiz match up is actually not bad at all. But the Baily fight I was reading about, no! Ortiz-Berto is a good match for the start of 2011 and then I want to see Berto in with a top 10 WW afterward.

Cotto is not a PPV draw.

You guys do realize that Showtime can easily produce a 4 part documentary for Pac/Cotto and title it something different than 24/7 right?
