    Fans care and he should to unless he wants fans to boycott him which would result in lower ratings/money blah blah blah

    Stevenson has Al Haymon. He makes business decisions based on value and what the market will bear in the best interest of his fighters.
    So, a few whiny UFC fans will cry and whimper.
    So what.
    No matter what decision is made there will always be a small percentage of loser whiners. :yep

    Hbo has tons more money then showtime so from a business standpoint staying with Hbo would have been great IMO..:deal

    Actually, it's people like you who are real losers. Why? Because you make excuses for everything. Winners don't make excuses.

    Losers make excuses and make excuse for OTHERS. When you like in mediocrity, you learn to accept mediocrity. Winners expect quality.

    Kovalev has been calling out Stevenson for a long time now, HBO wanted to have Kovalev and Stevenson fight, but Stevenson does not want to fight Kovalev, so he went to Showtime...........

    As long as HBO holds firm and they will since they can get by creating their own stars like they did last year...this will all blow up in Haymons and GBP face. Showtime can't fund their giant roster.

    That's what people don't understand.

    Showtime doesn't have an unlimited boxing budget. In fact, their budget is smaller than HBO's budget. All these money hungry fools think they're going to get rich by fighting twice a year on Showtime instead of 3-4 times a year on HBO.

    You bum loving loser.

    I am perfectly fine with the fight schedule as it comes. I never whine about this or that. That would be you whiners who seem to gravitate to ESB.

    The Metal you lick seems to be lead, and it has rooted your little bird brain.

    Just reading this entire thread and it's flooded by idiots fantasizing that they are big player managers like Haymon. Jeez, at least pretend that you actually like the sport of boxing.

    This all started when GBP tried to leverage their new buddy buddy relationship with their former lawyer at Showtime into long term guaranteed contracts at HBO for guys like Broner to keep headlining against soft opponents. When HBO said no their plan went to sh1t and now they will run Showtime into the ground with mismatches circa HBO from a few years ago. They had a banner year last year with Showtime as a sign of good faith but just look at all the tune-ups this spring. Soon their fighters will get restless with all the downtime and GBP will become what Don King is today.

    It's amazing!

    I wonder what kind of jobs these clowns have in real life.
    The way they think (or not), they must work for the Daddies because they are obviously mentally challenged and incompetent.
    All they seem to do is :twisted::|

    Sorry.
    Your writing skills are at a 8th grade level and you don't articulate what you are trying to say very well. Please think carefully and rewrite, but take your time, this time. :yep
