It gets me so mad when I watch PBC shows on Fox and see this

This is why Dazn is best for Boxing. They do not ignore any fighter matter their affilations.

They weren’t known as the big three. That wasn’t some nickname they had. http://archive.boxing.media/the_big_three_confab_in_cancun.html The Big Three has meant many things over the years. When the subject is universities, it means Harvard, Yale and Princeton. When the subject is television, it means, even in the age of cable, ABC, CBS, and NBC. When the subject is World War II, the Big Three refers to FDR, Winston Churchill, and Joseph Stalin. Boxing’s Big Three, the WBC, WBA, and IBF are meeting in Cancun, Mexico, tomorrow. https://boxing.fandom.com/wiki/IBF The organization was under federal observation from Lee's conviction through September 2004, though remaining recognized as one of boxing's "big three" sanctioning organizations. https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/sport/othersports/david-kelly-all-that-glitters-is-not-gold-in-the-world-of-boxing-28654240.html But allied to that was the proliferation of titles that left the ordinary boxing fan bewildered. As if the WBA, WBC and IBF — still the big three — was not enough we then had the creation of the WBO, IBO, WBF, IBA, IBC and the WBU. https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2000-apr-27-sp-23879-story.html a letter sent to the Big Three--the WBA, WBC and IBF-- http://www.theonerotary3450.org/wp-content/uploads/blog/3c5177-IBO-championship-belt The Big Three are the WBC, WBA and the IBF. https://topclassboxing.co.uk/why-im-happy-to-be-stuck-in-the-past/ my first year started with the big three, the WBC, WBA and IBF. http://www.geocities.ws/Colosseum/Arena/6925/boxing.html WBO was formed in 1989 and although not yet as powerful as the 'Big Three' https://www.telegram.com/article/20060507/NEWS/605070759 Zablocki, known simply as “Zab,” previously has done world title fights for some of the minor sanctioning bodies (IBO, IBA, IBC), but this is the first time he’s been third man in the ring for a Big Three (WBA, WBC or IBF) title fight.

Wow, you mean before the four belt era, we were in the three belt era? This is what you wrote: "The belts were not known as the big three. They never were." Clearly you were either lying or misinformed. Either way, the belts were known as the "big three" and FOX has chosen to continue that tradition.

Stank Davis isn't a full time jr. lightweight. Nobody outside of the most hardcore fans would even recognize who Jojo Diaz is. These are all the top fighters in the division. Stop pretending that not acknowledging a paper champ like Diaz is the same thing as ignoring a top pound for pound fighter.

... you had ONE job, bro. I shouldn't have to do this for you. Hahaha god bless you brother. Appreciate the assist.

They all do it, it’s lame as ****. This is reason 157 why casual fans prefer UFC.

The belts were not known as the big three. They never were. From an LA Times article over 20 years ago: "With so many sanctioning bodies, it seems impossible to hang on to an undisputed title for long since each organization has its mandatory challenger. Fight one organization’s top contender and the other two threaten to pull their titles. Lewis and his handlers hoped they could head off such a move with a letter sent to the Big Three--the WBA, WBC and IBF--a month after his victory over Holyfield."

Berchelt out of that list. Dumb not putting the other top dogs of he division there though.

We're only allowed to criticize one organization here.

Fox doesn’t get to decide what reality is. There’s four major belts in boxing. And the biggest of the three have always been known as the "big 3." Fox didn't decide that.

This has the potential to be #boxing’s hottest division in 2021. Who comes out on top? 🤔You tell us. pic.twitter.com/yZk3x7gqIj— Top Rank Boxing (@trboxing) January 19, 2021 Wait, ****, Top Rank is doing it so it's ok. Nevermind. There is never as vociferous a response from posters when it’s not pbc.

Not going to lie the 130lb division is so vastly overrated. None of those fighters are that good and Shakur Stevenson is the clear favorite but he’s zzzzzzzzzz.

Remember all the dorks whom were hating on DAZN since the get-go yet DAZN were the only ones promoting fighters from other platforms... “But but DAZN ain’t Netflix or Disney + doe...”. Lol. Forum dummies were saying such dumb shizzle Most of our fellow forums guys prolly didnt finish high school so its not surprising. Im not making fun but boxing tends to attract the brute of people and we (brutes) tend to be dumber or simpler or whatever. Make no mistake I am not some weird PBC fangirl tho

PBC been doing it for a couple of years and some ppl on here been defending it for a couple of years. I hope I don't see those same ppl crying about this now. Those that did moan about the PBC doing it should moan about this. But I've always said Top Rank are no better than the PBC. Both outfits are shady lying scum. Pretty much this The PBC hardcore fans are no different than Trump whackjobs. Its a weird cult either way PBC fighters DONT FIGHT the best opposition. Its a joke how protected they are

:lol1: **** me, where did you spring from? Thought you'd fallen into a black hole or something. How long's it been? wilder has finally started the direct debit going again

PBC doesn't refuse, FOX refuses. PBC broadcasts on Showtime recognize the WBO. FOX doesn't recognize the WBO, even when a PBC fighter is WBO champion. FOX is very clear in their graphic, they list the "big 3" organizations. FOX feels four organizations is too many and chooses to focus on the big 3. :lol1: **** me, where did you spring from? Thought you'd fallen into a black hole or something. How long's it been?

Fucc everything involved that doesn’t allow us to get the best fights. Fucc PBC, Fucc Top Rank, Fucc their leaders and fucc those that defend them with a aids infected dildo. Let us get the best fights! War Boxing!

As they should, the WBO should have never been recognized in the first place.

ill pick the guy with the tattoo why would anyone recognise the likes of the wba ahead of the wbo anyway with the wbc following the wba, they are taking boxing totally the wrong way and lining their pockets ahead of the sport

As should everyone with a brain. 3 is too goddamn many but 4??(really 6 with the wba and WBC nonsense)
