Not to mention I don't have Showtime.
Now you're talking. This would be amazing for boxing.
Pay the fee to get the channel for a month (to catch the fight and the promotional video) or look for a means to try and steal it.

As a fan, I wish it was on regular Showtime rather than HBO ppv, 100%!
But read between the lines - is Showtime going to drop $6mill on a Golovkin fight so that he can come onto their network, KO Danny Jacobs, and go back on HBO??? What kind of investment is that?
To me I see this, and either Showtime is expecting Haymon to subsidize the fight to meet it's price line or they're blowing smoke.
