Is it time to cancel your showtime subscription

[DannYankee]

I know but i'd rather watch the fight on my 60" Samsung LED than some crappy stream. It's just 70 bucks. I usually spend more than that on beer and restaurants on Saturday nights anyway.

No you dont understand if you got cable you dont need showtime to watch ppv. You just order it and watch it, it's a whole separate thing from your showtime subscription your showtime channel has 0 to do with the PPV channel.

I'll re-subscribe if showtime pitted this two shitheads against each other!

Most of those that are cancelling their subscription, probably never had it in the first place. Over one gimme fight for Garcia? lol

Where were all you when GGG was fighting the likes of Ishida, Lajuan Simon, Adama and some guy named Fuchigami?

None of those fights were on HBO. GGG has fought Proksa, Rosado, Macklin and Stevens on HBO. All ranked top ten at MW when he fought them with the exception of Rosado, but Rosado is a good opponent for most fighters.

Ishida and Adama were stay busy fights, overseas, not aired on HBO.

If Garcia wants a stay busy fight, it shouldn't be the main attraction of a Showtime event, imo.

The reason people are complaining isn't just specifically about Garcia, rather the seemingly large amount of mismatches and showcase fights. Sure, every now and then a mismatch turns out to be a good fight, like on Saturday night, but make no mistake the Guerrero fight was intended to be a showcase fight for Guerrero.

My point was just that, mismatches. I do agree about Showtime in that regard. They do not put the demands on matchups that HBO does, aside from the Proksa, Rosado, and Stevens fights of course. But Showtime shares the blame with the promoters that are unwilling to take risks with their fighters.

It's the only way to make a statement.
There's no other way. Don't buy tickets as well.
They'll be forced to give them away for free.
About time fans get united. You can subscribe back
when they get their acts together.

Overreacting how? D.Garcia and Peterson are fighting guys nobody on here has heard of. Just two guys they found on the streets. How is that acceptable? These guys are 'champions', they should be fighting the best available opposition or eachother, anything less than that is unacceptable.

Not just champions bruh, one is THEE 140lb "KING PIN."

This is not acceptable!

Lol I'd be willing to bet less than 10 have a subscription, all these guys *****ing about the fight and don't pay for showtime anyways...
