lol no it is not, look at the shows showtime put on? the vast majority are one sided beatdown for gods sake....
hbo have the 175s, 168s and the 160s
on top of that they have 2 very exciting ww showdowns coming up, there is a reason, hbo dropped gb on their ass dude, those guys were milking them with poor shows
remember a little while ago everyone was on hbos nuts when rios fought alv and bradley fought pov
hbo also just had froch vs kessler which was incredible, rigo vs donaire as well remember
hbo is still the a game by far, the problem is the ring keeps making guy seem better, who the heck do showtime hav at 147? only guy is floyd,n the rest alexander, khan, maidana, broner, berto and ortiz are b/c level hype jobs
as I said before, you have already seen it, richard, the slimeball from gb has begged hbo to put his fighters back on their network starting with hopkins and I am sure he has done more but they have told them to straight up p off...
don't worry dude, consider fight periods to be 4 out of the year, out of those 4 periods, hbo will deliver on 3, they will start getting more again soon when gb fighters jump ship and they will do so soon

Not really sure why people keep saying showtime-Gbp is killing HBO. They're going to run out of fighters to recycle eventually. GGG-Macklin was a great main event and people complain about the undercard? Showtime just hyped up broner as the next "great star" for fighting Paulie malgnianggi......... That's a terrible fight and the product of carefully choosing opponents for their "stars"
Lee Purdy, Gavin Rees, these are the guys showtime brings in to make their fighters look good...... So the oousthuzien fight was a stinker, but guess what? It shows that HBO is not just throwing their fighters In with some bums to make then look good, they're putting them in with fighters who have pulses and can make it competitive and possibly beat their fighter...... Showtime/GBP hasn't been doing that. How could you complain about that?

HBO will be fine. They're the one working with all promoters. Gbp is going to be stuck recycling the same fighters over and over and feeding them down the publics throat. HBO stopped working with GBP for a reason, they're done with the cherry picks.... Dropping gbp opened the door for GGG and Kovalev and I say HBO is now in an even better position.
GGG, Kovalev just those two right there have the goods to absolutely clean out their divisions, 160 and 175. Froch, ward, Marquez, PAC, Bradley, among many many others.... HBO will be fine, don't worry.Last edited by King_; 06-30-2013, 08:06 AM.

Come on dawg as far as action HBO has been owning Showtime. Tell me any fights on Showtime that were better than Bradley-provodnikov, rios-Alvarado 2,and froch-Kessler?
Not to mention that hbo has some great rising stars like GGG,mikey garcia,Terrence Crawford,Adonis Stevenson,sergey kovalev,and rigondeaux.
Also the future number one pound for pound Andre ward
And
Pacman
Bam Bam
Mile High
Dinamita
Desert Storm
And the son of the legend Chavez jr.
