    This is HBO we are talking about, there is a great chance we only get the Garcia and Jennings fight, while on Shotime there is an even greater chance that we get all 4 fights that are listed. HBO gives us too many 1 and 2 fight cards (wgich i dont like), while Shotime is good for 3 and 4 fight cards. I am looking most forward to seeing the Charlo/Rosado fight, then Errol Spence, then Garcia, then Jennings. I used to think Anthony Peterson was going to be good, man that was so 2008. But with all that being said, I will be watching both, very happy with a drink

      HBO, easily. But I'm really interested in seeing Charlo-Rosado

        Usually I hate when showtime and hbo have fights scheduled on the same date, but this isn't even a remotely difficult choice; Mikey Garcia-Burgos easy. That Peterson tune-up is ESPN level main event.

          A new thing called a DVR was invented.

            I'll be at the D.C. card.
            Both are good cards, but I want to see all of the fights on the Sho card and but only the top two on the HBO card.

              Errol Spence vs TBA
              Since, I can only watch one LIVE, i'll be tuning into HBO for sure. Mickey is great to watch and Burgos size may present some problems. Also looking forward to Jennings Szpislkdslasdfjika fight, that should produce some fireworks. Keeping a close eye on the development on Verdejo too. Hell, even Hart-Findley should be good. I'll probably be tuning back and forth between the Charlo-Rosado fight though. I'm really looking forward to that one.

              Overall, should be a great night of boxing. I like that both are competing for air time, I just wish, they would offset the times, or simply put them on different dates. Oh well, I'll take what I can get.

                  You do realize that HBO will more than likely just show the Garcia and Jennings fight right? Unless they announce it, I would not get my hopes up on seeing more than 2 fights on HBO that night

                    Yep, that's why I'll be tuning into the TR stream before the show.

                      Showtime have the more meaningful fights, so if I didn't have a DVR I will be tuning in to that. I also would like to see Spence make his debut on the premium network.
