Which broadcast do you like better: HBO or Showtime?

HBO, because Manny Stewart is a great commentator.

 

HBO sucks lately . . . i'll pic showtime.

 

HBO, but Lampley is really starting to alienate most of the serious fans with his crap, me included.

 

This is a joke right?

 

Hbo

 

HBO wins hands down. However Lennox is Horrible, Lampley is a shill. Merchant is the only guy with credibility on that show. Kellerman is infantile.

 

I'm a bigger fan of HBO.

 

HBO, better commentary and overall quality of the program.

 

HBO. Showtime only had the Marquez-Vasquez trilogy and thats it.

 

HBO seems to be more politically involved in boxing where Showtime just seems to want to show fights.

 

With Kellerman - who is hands down the worst commentator I've ever seen in 30 years of following the sport, - on HBO, this evens things up in my view. Lampley is a much better play by play guy, and HBOs overall telecast is better, but Bernstein is better than Merchant, and light-years better than the incompotent Kellerman. It's a wash.

 

I thought Kellerman was lights out when he first started but i've noticed him say some wrong/weird things. I prefer Merchant and his wise comments every blue moon over Kellerman, who probably thinks he knows a bit more than he actually does.

 

Altough Lampley is supposed to provide play by play, he has become more color analyst over the years. Now he's just the front office's mouth piece. His bias is unreal, and not easily excusable in his position.

HBO my miles. Showtime has put on some good fights but the commentators lack excitement and talk in a very bland way. Sometimes I watch showtime fights and imagine how much better they'd be with HBO's commentators. :rasta
