    How come showtime are willing to put their build up to a fight on youtube to hype a fight while HBO refuses? For me who is outside of US Showtime are alot better hyping a fight than HBO because HBO do not allow their documentaries on youtube

    Yeah its weird because I'm sure they will sell alot more if they allowed their documentaries on youtube and social network. They refuse to hype the fight thats crazy in my opinion

    Which one? At last?
     
  9. In HBO's defense, they offer a LOT more fights On Demand than SHO. There are multiple fights available for Pac, Golovkin, Kovalev, Bradley, Roidquez, Cotto, Crawford, Donaire, etc..

    I don't think there's even a single Floyd fight on SHO On Demand.

    because unlike showtime they've actually put some effort in making them.... so if you want it, you better pay...

    showtime can release that garbage they produce for free, because it has 0 production value....
