    Showtime's theme

    HBO theme does not give you the same feeling of something huge is about go down like Showtime's theme. It's like you get to the final level of some awesome fighting game and then the BOSS walks in full armor and infinite amount of guns with no way out but forward.

      Really? They all accommodate each other and the commentation is always really smooth and flows. HBO's team now is a hack at best.

      Not to mention Brian Kenny and Malignaggi are two of the best and We don't have to listen the Hannity of boxing in Lampley.

        Lol really? I guess Showtime's theme song is over my head because I don't a feeling that something huge and epic is about to go down, nor do I feel like it's the final level of some awesome fighting game where I'm about to fight a boss.

        But I will say that HBO f**ked up by changing their sweet ass world championship theme they had before this new one with the gay was 18 wheeler

          I disagree with Lampley on virtually everything he says but he has energy. Same with annoying accent Max, etc. I loved Merchant too, he asked post-fight questions like a rude forum member. HBO gets guys who are annoying enough to get you in a fighting mood.

          edit: oops I must've watched an international replay of the Cotto fight or somethign and assumed it was Sho's announcers.

            On Showtime everyone sounds like they're on downers watching baseball. Maybe I'm remembering the wrong fights. I remember Mayweather-Cotto he basically just sat there going "Wow, these kids are great. Great talent. Everything is great. I sure am glad I'm alive." til I muted it.
            Lol you have a point.

              HBO fell off a lot... The commentators suck now. Showtime commentators all have distinctive styles and feed off eachother. Also they give more in depth facts and not ****** details.

                I do like Showtime's theme music and intro, but you're totally right. The previous HBO intro music was absolutely the best.

                    Mayweather-Cotto was on HBO not showtime, and the commentators that call the fight when you watch the replay of it on Showtime are the international broadcast not showtime's.
