All fight need to be on free TV or basic cable TV. Death to PPV!

because NFL gets good and consistent ratings.
boxing does not.
there are like 3-4 boxers ppl in america know and they fight 1-2 times a year. -
because the commercial break based advertising business model doesn't mesh well with the sport. plus, it isn't family friendly.
you'd likely be complaining about commercials in between rounds if 'top tier' boxing were on free tv
edit: not to mention, sports like football have a set time limit, whereas a fight could end in 1 rd or 12. that makes buying ad time for a fight less appealing to advertisersComment

Look how much advertising time costs for the Super Bowl...Comment

Sponsors pay millions to advertise on the Super Bowl, which is watched by more people than any three fights.
Obviously they don't see the value of paying top dollar for a boxing match which could stink or literally end in a minute.Comment
