    What are some of the fights that have taken place on mainstream television, whether it be basic cable or premium channels, between two combatants, and the rematch was on a rival network...???


    Such as:

    Jonathan Banks vs Seth Mitchell 1, aired on HBO
    Jonathan Banks vs Seth Mitchell 2, aired on Showtime

    Daniel Santos vs. Antonio Margarito I was on Showtime and the rematch was on HBO.

    Bermane Stiverne vs. Chris Arreola I was on HBO and the rematch aired on ESPN.

    Nonito Donaire vs. Vic Darchinyan I was on Showtime and the rematch aired on HBO.

    Jean Marc Mormeck vs. O'Neil Bell I was on Showtime and the rematch aired on Fox Sports Network.

    Tomasz Adamek vs. Steve Cunningham I aired on Versus and their rematch took place on NBC. But I guess this doesn't really count, since Versus is now NBC Sports Net.

    I was going to mention the Adamek vs Cunningham shows, but I figured someone would point out the obvious that Versus is now NBC Sports Net...!!!

    Carl Froch vs Mikkel Kessler I Showtime
    Carl Froch vs Mikkel Kessler II HBO

    Cleverly vs Bellew I Boxnation
    Cleverly vs Bellew II Skysport

    Nope. The first fight headlined a small Showtime card in Puerto Rico promoted by Frank ******. The rematch was the co-feature to Cotto-Pinto on HBO. But now that I think about it...

    Margarito-Cintron I was on ESPN PPV and the rematch was on HBO.
