    Boring? Maybe to low IQ fans who only like brawls, but not fans of the sweet science.

      wow some good fights. And at least Alexander-Porter should be competitive, if not all that entertaining. I'll still watch it. I usually root against Victor Ortiz but I'm so bored with Carlos Molina's style that I'll be pulling for vicious victor. Thank God Trout-Lara is finally coming off too!

        Theres not a single FOTY fight there on paper or a top 10 P4P fighter GTFOH OP
        Kinda hard to predict which matchups will be FOTY, but this card seems to have a chance.

        I have both channels so I really don't understand why people hate on either network, boxing fans win at the end of the day. I'm looking forward to the SHO cards as well as the upcoming GGG, Ward, Donaire and Rigo fights on HBO.

          GGG and Ward vs. Bums

          HBO is nothing but hype.

          Yeah, can't wait.

              Dude all these SHO cards are packed with "bums": Paulie, Soto Karass, Ortiz, Judah, Porter, Seda, none of them are top 10 in the division. Even Maidana is a fringe contender at welter, and Broner is not top 5. And that's the main event on a PPV.

                No question GBP has the deeper Roster so Showtime is able to stack up the Cards for the fans and give you a full night of good match ups while HBO and Top Rank just kinda give fans **** undercards even tomorrows PPV Undercard is ****!

                But regardless I watch both networks and both promotions so it don't matter
                HBO isn't just Top Tank it's every promoter minus GB. Showtime is basically exclusively GB . Golden Boy does a good job stacking their cards thoufh cus they are deep

                  Golden Boy is better than Top Rank and all those other Mickey Mouse promotional companies.

                  It's like the NFL vs. the CFL.

                      HBO is the diamond to Showtimes Ruby. This is the closest Showtime has come to HBO. But close is not enough.
