    The funding isn't coming straight out of Haymon's pocket. The reason that boxing pays to be on those networks is because Al Haymon has sponsers who've provided money for the purpose of getting boxing on network tv. Millions!!! It's essentially the reverse of what the UFC does. The UFC joined with a network and accepted a deal to have their fights shown on those networks. They basically had to choose from whatever networks would accept their pitch and take the money that the network offered. In the Haymon's case with PBC, he came with the money and chose the networks he wanted to work with and paid them based on whatever the worth was agreed upon.
    Then why has it been widely reported that PBC is doing time buys as a "proof of concept" and looking to show networks it can draw so Pbc can secure a TV deal..

    Why does every major sport get the TV deal, yet boxing does it in "reverse"..

    Can you name another major sport that does time buys instead of TV deals??
