      Don't know why you guys are shi*ting on SHO's episode. I thought the old footage they used on Floyd like at the olympics was pretty cool. There's still 3 more episodes I think left to release.
      Homey you lying out your ass or Biased and didn't watch At Last, the intro alone kills Showtime, they should show that intro in the movie theaters as a commercial to get fans hyped to buy the fight.

      At last intro showed Pac and Floyd as kids with old footage.

      That showtime **** was garbage it was so boring it just showed Floyd saying Pac will have trouble reading the teleprompter and no trash talk at all, it was cheaply done horrible cinematography.

        No it wasn't, it was garbage. It was so one sided. It was like a Pacquiao Roach documentary. Due to Floyd being on Showtime, he was barely shown or mentioned at all. Making something like that from one perspective is ****** imo.

          Exactly man, I was blown away, usually they disappoint with massive things like this like Showtime did but it was even better than I anticipated.

          The intro used the same music for the Mayweather Hatton 24/7 and ironically jas posted a video from way back of a mock 24/7 and it was eerily similar with the same music lol

            Homey this was a lil biased but not like Showtime.

            They actually made Pac look bad with the drug testing and were relatively neutral.

            The Showtime one was ****** it was like a cheaply made internet documentary dude, how could you not see this as good?

              HBO is doing the documentary on Pac and Showtime is doing it on Floyd. How did you expect it to not be biased? And LOL @ saying it was garbage. Do you know what production quality is?

                Showtime was biased as hell...and boring as hell.

                HBO was neutral and made the fight appealing to a person not even remotely informed about either fighter or boxing.

                  I haven't seen the Showtime show. I'm sure it must be very one sided as well. It's dumb to produce something from such a subjective view point imo. The best documentaries are balanced, just my opinion.

                    It was garbage, it doesn't make sense to just present one side. Both HBO and Showtime could have done a joint production, which would've been better imo.

                      In an ideal world yeah BUT all of the interesting things would not have been included because they would want their own fighter to look as good as possible. I think HBO did a good job in including the drug testing bit and Pacs losses. Absolutely fair.
