Cancel your subscriptions if you don't support the fights

I have canceled mine a long time ago. If you're only after boxing, there's not much for you there. It's not only the crappy Haymon tune up fights, it's also about the frequency of fights. You end up waiting for long periods of time.

You should consider looking for alternatives like BoxNation. You can get both HBO and SHO fights, plus some more from around the world for a monthly subscription.

Don't bitch about showcase fights like this Garcia/Peterson/Jacobs card, and yet continue to pay your monthly subscription to Showtime

If you're not willing to cancel your subs, then stop bitching about these fights

So tired of hearing people bitch about showcase fights (like the Mayweather/Guerrero fight, a PPV that did a million buys), and yet gobble that **** up anyways. It's like these people are fucking braindead

Ya'll casual fans are dumb as shit if you keep giving these people your money

It ain't about being mad, and canceling out of spite. If enough people cancel their subs, a dent will be made in Showtimes profits and it'll force their hands. Big corporations take advantage of large groups of dumb people, this is no exception

Do you criticize HBO as well? Or does being consistent not interest you?

SHO has the fight of the year, in Matthysse-Molina, and we're gonna get great fights from Porter and Thurman soon.

not every fight has to be televised, and yes I criticize both networks, I cancelled both subscriptions last year, when HBO was particularly awful

this year it's Showtime

i don't give a **** if they're giving you one good fight every 4-6 months, that's not what you're paying for nor should you be OK with paying for that garbage

I am. I'm dropping cable too, at this point all you need is an antenna, Netflix, Hulu Plus and I have Amazon Prime for my Kindle Fire and you can get all the content you need. Just spend money on internet use.

Just in general I'm not feeling the sport at the moment, nothing was ever more addicting to me than boxing and I just ain't feeling it. The talent just isn't there for me and the greats are almost gone.

Don't ask for streams if you don't support them.

Bottomline is, if you want to watch all the best boxing in America you need Showtime and HBO. I have both and will for the foreseeable future.

Both HBO and Showtime have bought **** fights. so what. It doesnt take away all the good fights they have or will put on...

I'm tired of hearing about this. If you aren't a big fan, don't have the money then bounce. But STFU about it.. I couldn't imagine any real boxing fan completely ignoring showtime or HBO entirely that sounds insane. But if you are a fanboy then by all means. If you want to stream it then by all means. If you are fed of with boxing then by all means quit watching. But just stfu with this network fued nonsense.

Boxing is as good as its been in well over a decade. If you don't appreciate that, feel entitled, or don't like boxing, then why are you here?

If your subscribing to Showtime just for the boxing than your a freakin idiot.

**Killer_of_Sheep** · 06-25-2014, 06:09 AM

So now we basically have to eat all the crap they throw at us? And be quiet about it, let all the promoters and fighters fill their asses with money and give us crappy fights?

Why?
