    If they continue to pay Haymon fighters hundreds of thousands of dollars, if not millions, for fighting nobodies, then it's reasonable to say they'll spend truckloads for legit fights. Mismatches are cheaper, no doubt, but if those are the only types of fights they can afford, then this network is doomed.

      Showtime are definitely doing better in the online arena.

      HBO fall quite behind in terms of uploading stuff online + embracing social media etc.

        Precisely. Legit fights rarely happen because Haymon fighters are asking too much money. Guerrero and Porter rejected the Thurman fight because SHO can only offer undercard money.

            Showtime was Mike Tyson's network long before Floyd came over

                Why would it? Paulie, Broner, and Maidana would carry Showtime and make millions.
