    I would actually prefer if they didn't. One of the big upsides to the PBC is that with next to no boxing on Showtime anymore, I am planning on dumping it when this season of "Ray Donovan" is over. Cut down on my cable bill a bit....

      With their Stream Service up and running and it is also linked to Hulu, now would be a good time to get things Rolling and step up their Programming overall and not just Boxing. Probably was waiting to leach off of Mayweather and the All Access Stuff leading up to this next fight so they can promote what they're working on

      Hopefully it is good stuff, forget competition with HBO and who draw better ratings, Showtime Boxing is Needed just as much as HBO especially for the sake of the fighters!

            How does this guy still have a job? I know he orchestrated the Mayweather deal, but it has all gone to **** from there, and Showtimes' boxing ratings have been terrible this year. He got ****ed by Haymon sure, but he let him do it, but being a complete yes man.

              Just trying to save face,,,


              The "major" announcement will be the floyd fight. Not exactly breaking news

              The rest of the schedule will be name guys like wilder, adonis, danny fighting subpar competition and 3 or,4 shobox cards..

              Haymon seems to be putting all his marquee matchups on network TV ie mares-cruz, danny-Peterson,

                Only thing that seems plausible is that they have a deal with Matchroom

                    ShowTime has been irrelevant for along time now. Pbc has been a complete disaster and is also very much irrelevant and definitely has pushed ShowTime into more disparity. Al haymon is the greatest thing to ever happen to HBO but definitely the worst thing to happen to boxing
