Paramount will be shutting down Showtime Sports by the end of the year. The news comes in the wake of Showtime’s merger with Paramount+.
“It is with profound disappointment that I shared this morning’s news that the company has decided to shut down Showtime Sports at the end of this year,” president of Showtime Sports Stephen Espinoza wrote in a memo to staff on Tuesday that was obtained by TheWrap.
Espinoza emphasized that Paramount’s decision to cut the division is not “a reflection of the work we have done in recent years, nor of our long and proud history.”
“Unfortunately, in a rapidly evolving media marketplace, the company has had to make difficult choices allocating resources, resetting priorities and reshaping its content offering,” Espinoza continued. The former head went on to say that the shuttering was “entirely out of our control.”

Two of boxing’s young stars are set to put on a show tonight, as Carlos Ocampo takes on Sebastian Fundora for the latter’s interim Wbc junior middleweight title.
It’s a crucial fight for the undefeated Fundora, as victory could mean his first chance to secure a world title. Should he win, Fundora will likely face Jermell Charlo for the undisputed junior middleweight belt. But getting through Ocampo isn’t a sure thing: the Mexican boxer has a stellar record of 34-1, winning 22 of those by knockout.
