3 of them are GBP fighters so yeah those will be showtime. Not sure about Martinez - Murray. I would guess HBO.

thanks.

i noticed during that pbf doc that he was complaining about larry merchant coming at him in that post fight interview. would be a shame if he left hbo bc of that.

guess they're thinking pbf is nearing boxing death and the likes of nonito, golovkin etc will carry their network. hope they're right, because i dont want to pay for showtime.

It's because of a power struggle between GBP/ Al Haymon/ vs. HBO.

All Golden Boy Promotions fighters + Al Haymons fighters (including Floyd) will be on HBO for the foreseeable future.
Top Rank will be on HBO.

My guess is HBO will have the better production with the worse fighters (but may have better fights) and showtime will become the bigger boxing channel of the two.

I think it's a really close fight on paper. I'll take Donaire by decision though.

had to ditch the main event on UFC for this. So worth it though.

Rigo's defense is frustrating Donaire.

20-18

pinoys, i mourn your loss. First Pac and now this.

Rigo looks like a freak athlete. He makes Donaire look slow.

Rigo outboxing ND easy right now. ND needs KO to win, imo.

30-27

Can't believe what i'm seeing.
One good punch by Donaire but many more by Rigo.

Donaire does have paralyzing power though and we all know Top Rank fights are almost always corrupted.

Donaire kinda getting owned.

wow when they slug it out. It's like the matrix.

40-36 imo but could be 39-37.
