they didn't get smoked. showtime had one very good night of boxing that sold a lot of PPV and that was it.
abner mares vs ponce de leon was another good fight from showtime.
both HBO and showtime had good match ups in 2013. Showtime just had the biggest selling PPV fight of that year but they didn't completely outdo HBO in terms of quality match ups.
donaire vs rigo - #1 and #2 at 122, donaire #5 p4p, unification match (WBO, WBA super, Ring)
bradley vs marquez - two top ten p4p'ers and two highly ranked welterweights, championship fight
adonis stevenson vs dawson - dawson the #1 ranked light heavyweight ring champ wbc champ
mikey garcia vs salido - big step up for mikey against the tough highly ranked featherweight WBO champ salido
golovkin giving us 4 fights (3 against top ten ranked middleweights) all exciting action packed stoppages.
etc. etc.
so it isn't like HBO gave us something anywhere similar to what showtime gave us last year.
