Anyone know what's going on w/Dorticos/Gassiev it's been moved a few times now.

Bingo! Though, being on non-premium tv and being active, if Haymon has a fighter with legit talent and great personality, that fighter could quickly become a ppv caliber fighter (assuming there's compelling fights to be made for him). He does have some good candidates: Keith Thurman Errole Spence Ivegen Khytrov Mickey Bey IMO you can only sell boxing to a certain point then you have to have attractions (stars) w/o them people will tune out bcse it's Boxing. One delusion that boxing fans have is that bcse they enjoy watching it then everyone else would if it were more available but I'm not so sure that's true this NBC deal will either debunk that or prove it. I expect it to do well early but once the initial buzz/novelty of it wears off then what... can they really build the sport/fighters or was it just a experiment.

He's not boring but he can be , then again most fighters can fall in that category given the opponent match-up.

UFC model works in MMA bcuz there's a lack of depth at the top so they can keep the best. This won't work in boxing there's tooo much depth all over to have all the pieces he's trying to segregate the sport which in long haul is bad.

This is like a bad re-enactment of Floyd/Maidana by bums

Arroyo's last 2 fights were IBF eliminators sort of surprised he's ranked so high in another orgz. He looked really good against Marquez even though he's shot to bits...still it's a good fight if Inoue can't unify.

HBO wouldn't have made Canelo/Kirk on may 2 if Pac ppv were involved on the same day

WBC mandated Makabu/Mchunu for the #1 spot not sure if it goes down or when.

From what I understand Haymon is not to emulate the PPV business model. That's why I don't see just from where the money is supposed to come from. This in case he hasn't a kind of SciFi plan in mind... There's a reason Haymon doesn't want PPV he doesn't have any PPV fighters granted there aren't many of those so his basis is major network success or hope Showtime will take him back.

Broner's defense has gotten better he just grabs now

This is a comical thread to breeze through ))) keep it up Koketigym:rofl: Having no mention of Uchiyama is :thinking:

They got to do something about these ringwalks...awful

So how many TV's have been turned due to this

What is it with Lomas groin that fighters feel so compelled to want to hit it

What Carl Lewis was busy tonight?

Lampley explains the pathetic nature of this opponent with such grace

I have the tv broadcast and seriously thinking about switching to boxnation this is some redbull infused queer attempt at being "hip" to lure the kids into this new fresh game called boxing

Is PBC only going to use black ring ropes ?

Pretty evenly matched should be fairly entertaining , Diaz will likely win.

Wake looks like a Elvis impersonator and fights like Sergio well kind of uses a lot of movement southpaw hands low he's better than Amagasa and if his chin holds up he'll give Rigo trouble.

Who are these complete knobs?

NDam's resiliency is just ridiculous no matter how bad he's cracked does not stop

NDam needs to tag that body and bail

Frampton will win if he manages to stop the tough Avalos that'd be a big statement. Avalos has leaky defense but he's game and will give Frampton a real fight.

Cotto should have to avenge his loss to Austin Trout

That's massive? sounds like a good show but I guess you have to figure it's Blowtime so those numbers for them probably are massive.

The book is out give Garcia movement and he has issues but Peterson isn't really doing anything with his hands.

I want Marv to stop talking immediately

Sounds like none of you have seen Molina fight before

This has a cheesy American reality based theme
