This is what happens when they don't do anything for 3/4 of the year and can't make any stars because they put everybody on hold all the time

[koolttt]

lets not forget that hbo has around 10 million more subscribers than showtime.

I see HBO and Showtime doing away with boxing for good in the upcoming years. The ratings dont justify the production costs.

I figure if that HBO card wasn't on that night the numbers wouldn't change much, which means the people who watched the HBO card aren't showtime subscribers thus didn't have the option of watching both.

As a subscriber of both, I watched Showtime and DVR'ed the HBO card.

I agree! HBO has more subscriptions, thus more viewers. I did the same thing you did! The Showtime card was excellent! And i'll be doing the exact same thing on January 28th!

So exactly when was Haymon going to use that half-billion dollars and save boxing?

Williams vs Charlo should have headlined the fight, not this Mares guy.

It would have probably had less viewers that way. Mares was the more well known fighter on the entire card. Charlo/Williams was a bigger deal but Mares has been on more big cards than Charlo and Williams.

And yet Showtime still thinks that they are the boxing leaders lol

Showtime better pay up for a good match up if they want their second biggest cash cow, Lara, back on their network.
