    Showtime Promo: Hype or Mistake?

    So I'm watching Showtime....and a mini commercial for Brewster v.s. Lycahovic airs. When describing Brewster.....the guy announcing the commercial used this exact line:

    "Brewster....who has dominated the division the past 5 years"

    Did anyone else catch that?

    I like Brewster and he's one of my favorite heavyweights...but lets get real. How exactly has he dominated the division? by making repeated defenses of the W.B.O. title? That makes no sense whatsoever.

    Wow, they actually said that? Brewster is doing just fine for himself but no one has come close to dominating the division since Lewis left. I think Vitali had some great momentum going, and IMO would have demolished Rahman, but then he retired. This is a similar situation to the early 1930's but with less talent.

      he got WBO title like years ago; that is probably just a Promo stuff; "dominated" is also not a legal term, so whatever

        I honestly have to say that was the most outrageous thing I've ever heard as far as boxing promos are concerned.

        I saw the commercial again a couple of minutes ago.....

        and yep. He said those exact words.

          I think he has the potential to dominate in the NEXT 5 years, but certainly hasn't dominated yet

                Tell that to Showtime....who is trying to brainwash weekend boxing fans into thinking Brewster is the new Lennox Lewis.

                Total B.S......and a unscrupulous promo tactic that doesn't take into account the division is open as it's ever been.

                Dominate my ass.

                    You're right. HBO is worse at hyping fighters.
