I don't care how hard they try to sell me this showtime ****, it's not the same. The production is just cheap, you got an MMA/wrestling guy as commentator, the ring and ropes are the wrong colors.......it just isn't the same especially for a super fight.
I agree HBO just does a better job overall promoting, and calling the fights but their biasedness sucks balls
I'll take Showtime's boring accuracy over Lampley's wildly inaccurate impassioned commentating. Then again some emotional fans need a Lampley
Its not that I don't like Lampley, the guy loves the sport but I can go without the fanboy cheerleading hbo has. They always push their agenda of said fighter and not give the other guy any credit if they can help it. Hbo has better production vs showtime, but showtime isn't thatbad.
