Cancel HBO for Showtime

I think it makes sense. You chose your dates well.

 

or, you could keep them both

 

yeah man! we have to get boxing back into the mainstream. and hbo are gonna have to do some **** to bring back their monopolising of the market. im optimistic about the showtime move.

 

yeah why not this?

 

This is what kills the sport, too much competition in business within the sport.

 

dont know basic business principles? competition = good for consumers. its a 100% rule.

 

Not in this case. Boxing is looking for popularity. How will that happen when one network, that isn't free, dominates another?

 

@ *******s. :rofl

Like I always said, *******s don't love boxing, they love Pacquiao.

And, "Business must be bad now"???? atsch

Do you know what HBO televises???? :yep One big fight not being on HBO doesn't mean business is bad for HBO.

****in Stans. atsch

 

huh? are u referring to HBO dominating Showtime?

i feel that hbo shuts down boxing. limited viewers. and when they were monopolising, its all good for them to ignore the klits fights, cause they had that power. this shifts everything, which is why ur hearing them considering bringing back the klits.

 

Dont be a puss I have both

 

why would you cancel? look at that great fight they provided you with last Saturday between two rising stars :rofl

 

the only guy who brought up Pacquiao is you.

lol

 

Don't know what its like over in the States for watching boxing, in the UK we seem to do pretty well.

Sky is £47-50 ($80) per month and we get boxing every Saturday with the top domestic fight of the week (Booth vs Arthur for the British & Commonwealth titles tonight) with the odd American card thrown in as well - i.e Mayweather-Marquez, Mayweather-Mosley, Marquez-Diaz, Bradley-Alexander, Pacquiao-Margarito, Pacquiao-Cotto, Wlad-Chambers, Wlad-Chambers, Wlad-Chagaev and in the past we've Barrera, Morales, Corrales etc.

Obviously we've had the PPV for Warren's events recently, Haye & Hatton then we have other channels that pick up boxing like Premier and Primetime but they don't show it all the time and they also charge to view boxing.

Showtime from I've read seem to be moving ahead and doing well, I liked their idea of the Super 6 (been a fan of the 160-68 division for years), I know some hate it but it was made with good intentions, the Bantamweight tourney as well.

 

hbo dont really give a ****. They are kicking showtimes ass. I have never ordered a showtime ppv and never will. **** that shitty ass Arum and Pac-Mosley.
