HBO has 8 of the top 10 p4p fighters on its network (floyd, danny garcia on sho). they can have a huge 2014.
Rigo's got a fight and the showcased Crawford, etc, so I'm hopeful HBO isn't just going to go in a "all action" direction, I think a lot of people have just been spoiled with the KO's and such because a lot of the new HBO signing (while being good boxers) have just so happened to have devastating power (Golovkin, Adonis, Kovalev) I read a recent interview with SI and Hersh said he's just interested in the best possible fights (surely he knew Wlad wasn't going to slug it out with Povetkin?) so I'll hold him to that and hope he doesn't just mean best fights possible as in AKA only all out brawls, etc.
I will say the one thing HBO is doing now that I like is being open to bringing fighters over from lesser-known promoters and matching their big promoter- Top Rank, with out-of-house opponents (provodnikov, etc) We've seen a ton of different promoters on HBO this year- Thats the ONE thing I wish Showtime would do some more of, but I don't really see it.
Showtime is doing great as well and I must say I've never been a big fan of Greenburg, but they're putting on great in-house fights with GBP and it seems a lot of Showtime undercards have been better then most HBO undercards this year. I wish they would be open to working with other promoters but the "cold war" as much as it sucks and there's ridiculous fights that could be made if they worked together, has been good in regards to match making- both sides are putting on great shows due to the competition/pressure to outdo the other one.
Both networks have ton's of good fights to be made next year and 2014 will even top 2013, IMO.
