garcia and peterson are facing off in april
Garcia vs Peterson
Guerrero vs Thurman
Broner vs Molina Jr
thats what they are saying..al haymon was smart enough to save the garcia peterson fight for himself and nbc, espinoza and showtime just got bucked in the arse smh :dance:
On the one hand, I am frustrated we have yet another promoter who likely wont play with Arum and GB. Great. Recycled fights.
On the other, Haymon pulls this off and gives us great cards, I ll be the next to thank Al haymon.
For the sake of boxing i hope this works
Is this confirmed? If that's the case I'll definitely watch, it's not a great card but it's a good fight for everyone involved.
EDIT: It is. Great for boxing. Al Haymon deserves credit for this, he earned it.
Yep........
we are getting guerrero/thurman and broner/molina on march 7th

Will these guys still be on Showtime or they exclusive to NBC? I'm also curious as to how this makes Haymon money. Being on NBC is a really, really great move for boxing, Haymon certainly made a good move there but he's going to the ruin the execution. If these guys aren't fighting each other; even a casual fan will catch on that they're fighting nothing but bums if that's all they see when this airs.
I won't be watching unless it's a quality fight, Haymon lost all credibility when he made that Garcia/Salka fight. That was a travesty and Salka could have been seriously hurt.
Why is s p i k e censored :thinking:
Prob cause of racist trolls using spi.k to get around censors. I mean pac tard and flo mo is blocked lol so makes sense they'd block that too
He purchased time on $pike as well. Steve kim reported it nbs,nbssn,and the old home of ufc
Oh ok.
Well Haymon has well over 100 fighters. Surely he will have commendable opponents for the so called stars of the network. Not sure I like the choices.
Broner is the only star.. What about Maidana? Cash him out in his last 3-4 fights. He has plenty of name value right now.
