    HBO or Showtime

    Im thinking about buying one of these channels. I wanted to know which one you guys thinks has the best fighters fight on their station. And which has fights more often.

    Thanks!

      man..

      to say showtime has boring boxing is just letting others know you are the lowest type of fan

      tyson was mentally weak, u trying to copy that too?

          The fighters on showtime are not for the most part boring to watch but I would have to say that the HBO commentators show more emotion during an exciting fight which makes it more exciting. I personally go with HBO but whatever you want man, boxing is good on both channels.

            hbo. hbo is blowing showtime out of the water this year (especially now that the corrales-castillo fight didn't go off), although showtime had a great year last year.

            if you're basing the decisions purely on boxing, hbo gets the slight edge. if you're basing this on boxing + original programs, hbo is by far the better choice (sopranos, entourage, curb your enthusiasm, etc.)

                  Not only does HBO have better fights, they tend to keep a lot of good old fights ONDEMAND, leading up to one of their big events you can always get 2 or 3 matches featuring the main event fighters to watch whenever you want.
