    All Access, 24/7 don't do anything for me. I'll watch boxing without them when I want to.

    Here in Canada your Rogers HDTV box is not enough to access Showtime's All Access. It's almost non-existent. CNN at least airs 24/7, which is available on any basic cable.

      The whole promotion and presentation of this was clumsy, sloppy and lazy at times....or so it seemed and even the fight was boring as hell. I said it before the fight, Floyd is going to have to take on a challenge or the next one will bomb even worse. Can you imagine if its Alexander they try and sell???

        Yup, and even then we have to special order HBO because of course in Canada it's not built into our basic satellite program. Sucks to be a Canuck boxing fan

          man 58,000 viewers seems really low.

          Floyd only on Showtime cause Al Haymon made that deal for himself, Haymon cut ties with HBO basically giving them a ridiculous offer.
          Who cares?

            exactly. when all access had no narration it was great. floyd brought over 24/7 to all access and it ******.

              I didn't think the production was cheap, was quite decent. And Paulie was very good. But it was disappointing hearing Bernstein repeat the "6 time, 4 division" line, that's some Lampley ****.

                Al Haymon is Floyds boss, Floyd doesn't know about business deals. He screwed Floyd here, Floyd can't go back to HBO and now has to fight 5 more fights unless Showtime doesn't want to be apart of the Mayweather business, but Haymon burned bridges with HBO so he Floyd is stuck.

                  I remember reading about the showtime mayweather deal that some were worried that showtime had conceded so much just to get floyd that if the deal started out on the wrong foot there would be little showtime could do to push floyd into any fight he didn't want.

                    This has been historically the biggest date in boxing and there was only 1 nba playoff game that night and it was over before the Mares fight ended

                    Pacquiao, Chavez jr or Canelo should get this date from now on
                    I think Pacquiao is finished and Chavez jr + Canelo aren't good enough.
