  1. CanILive says:

    this was not “free showtime weekend”

    Time warner cable did not allow showtime to be aired free.
    I’m sure time warner accounts for many households

  2. Expect those kind of numbers when you put “the dean of glass-jaw”in the main event.

  3. Alex Z says:

    I have time warner and it worked for me.

    • CanILive says:

      i do as well but i have full cable, however we watched the fights at my friends
      who has time warner but no showtime, and he tried and it said we had to purchase showtime.. so we streamed it oh well
