    first time watching SHOWTIME live... hows it work?

    like, do they show a scorecard like the letterman scorecard?

    do they have a 3 person or 2 person commentator team?

    do they interview BOTH fighters after the fight? or just the winner?

    and are they biased like the HBO team is at times?

      To bad you never got to see Showtimes original team, Bobby Cyz, Freddy Pacheco and Steve Albert they were a great team.

      But now it Steve Albert and Al Bernstein. Berstein keeps a scorecard and they also have the press row give score cards and they also give you info of online scorring.

      They will do a before segment like Hbo. And one cool thing about Showtime is if a top fighter is in the audience, Showtime will go and get an interview with him and also ask him his thoughts on the fight.

      Also Jim Grey is the best interview for fights ever, this guy don't give a **** and ask dumb and tough questions, which is good.

          When they had the original team i'll say just as good or better.

          Al Berstein and Steve Albert is too jolly know do to Berstein off humor.

          The team i'd like to see is Steve Albert and -i forget his name at the moment- that guy that does the boxing commentary who used to be The Ring magazine publisher. Him and Steve Albert would be a great team. And would be cool if they brought back Bobby Cyz, he's deeply missed.

            I wouldn't doubt it, he may have to face the winner.

                Foreman was great, i always enjoyed him commentating because he always gave the viewer boxing tips and a lot of cool insight to the fighter like what he may be going through, Merchant is just a good for a good laugh somtimes, and if he thought you won he'd give you all the time in the world in the interview if not he was a ****head. Lampley is cool when the fight gets heated, he starts yelling and makes the fight even more exciting cause he helps you comprehend that what is happening is somthing great.


                edit; rjj was cool to cause at times he told it like he view it and he didnt' care what the other team said, he was going to give his opinion and that was cool to hear his opinions too.
