    He's taken his fighters over to Showtime since Hershman moved to HBO, the new guy at Showtime obviously likes paying over the odds for fights like Williams vs Ishida and Taylor vs Truax.

    khan vs peterson on hbo, that's a better fight than bertoe vs ortrees.

    hbo budget to buy fights is a dollar.
    showtime's budget is 20 cents.

    al haymon has to have 5 fighters fight on showtime to get what he makes previously on one fight from hbo.

    I think the TS forgot about:
    HBO
    April 14- PPV- Marquez vs. Fedchenko
    April 28- Hopkins vs. Dawson II
    May 19- Peterson vs. Khan II
    June 16- Chavez Jr vs. Lee
    August 25- Geale vs. Pirog

    It's a little odd that you count an Alexander vs. TBA date for Showtime while conveniently forgetting two Broner vs. TBA dates (May 19 and summer TBA) for HBO. Plus, also a little weird that you list Caballero vs. Mikey despite it not being signed, so I'll take the liberty of listing a four times better fight HBO is getting in Geale/Pirog.

    You noob.

    Hopkins Dawson April
    Marquez Fedchenko April
    Rios Abril April
    Pacquiao Bradley June
    Mayweather Cotto May
    Khan Peterson :bbb May
    Canelo Mosely :!: May
    chavez Jr Andy Lee June


    It's competitive but HBO takes the cake with big fights. Although SHO is a worthy contender. Come at me BRO! :fire

    one of those is on ppv and not actually on hbo (marquez). and non of those fights are great apart from khan peterson, hopkins is gonna be a clinch fest, and broner just fights bums.:hi:
