    There is no such thing as A side, B side with networks/platforms.

    Showtime, Fox, DAZN or ESPN is only as good as the fighter they are trying to get a fight with another platform player thus they can be A or B side depending on the specific situation.

      I don’t know much about the history but am sure we have had difficulties between those two networks, if my memories serves me right Tyson/Lewis and Mayweather/Pac was very difficult to make. But they came together in the end due to the money involved.

      DAZN is very new in the market, so I cannot really comment on them. We hope all networks would come together when it comes to making big fights.

            when you get some sort of personal life validation based on one multi-national broadcast corporation being considered "better" than another multi-national broadcast corporation, I think most people would agree that your brain doesnt function properly.

              Say what you want about them, HBO big fights always felt like Big fights.

              I always thought of HBO as the WWF, their big fights were Wrestlemania

              Showtime are more like WCW, their big fights are Starcade

              They try but it's not quite the same
              I actually agree with this comparison😂😂😂

Now they have 2 actuall great fighters(Crawford, Loma) so that will keep people coming back but for how long if they have no opps?

                Don’t even get me started on dazn they’re sooo cringe makes me embarrassed to even watch.

                When HBO cared, they used to biiitch slap Showtime.

                I won't be subbing to Show while Haymon is in charge. ***ing snake.
