    Showtime always has some damn good fights, but HBO really is the heavyweight.

    Showtime needs the Pacquiao/Mayweather fight to happen. If it does, Showtime can really use some extra viewers for the Super Six and feed off of it.

    HBO has better name fighters, but Showtime has better matchmaking as they usually showcase much more competitive fights. If we combined both networks we'd have the perfect boxing program.

    I also like Showtime's commentators much more over the corny, biased group over at HBO, but thats' just a matter of personal opinion.

    I wish Showtime had half HBO's boxing budget. They really know how to spend wisely. Also they rarely get so stuck up with phony prospects like arreola etc.
