    HBO had the best score soundtracks without a doubt. They really captured every emotion of the fighters and had the best narrative. Showtime and Dan must step their game up when it comes to score soundtracks.

      Watching the montage brought back alot of memories of great fights that maybe I haven't watched in ages. Some truly great nights spent in front of the tv. HBO production was the best by far and Lamps, Larry, and Steward were fantastic. I'll miss it but they went downhill fast the last couple of years and it was time to move on I guess. Maybe someday they'll come back.

            Who is a better boxing play caller that Lampley thought? And Lampley gets emotional over fighters. It's refreshing when people really care about the fighters in this sport and show it.

              No doubt. That montage was incredible. I thought it was over like 3 or 4 times and it kept going and going. I loved it.

                    I was crying like a mf. I went to the bathroom and curled up no joke and cried in the corner for a good 15 minutes, something I hadnt done since I was a teen. It was emotional.

                      And? I can't list how many epic fights and fighters from HBO. Showtime was HBO's red headed step child for over 3 decades. What's there to talk about?
