Mikey's Cherry Picking went wrong.... Now its clear why Mikey ran away from Loma in 135. He would get schooled

[DougalDylan]

The UK price is 7.99ukp which * 1.38 = 11 dollars
Which * 12 for a year = 132 dollars

So not sure where you are getting your facts from .. Al Haymon ??

The subscription price is many, many other countries is much higher then the UK, US because it adds extra sports ... I know Mr Haymon said it but if you google it, you'll find I'm right.

The rest of the world would have no problem with ESPN, PBC and TR living in their cave in the US if that's what they want to do provided they stop calling their fighters world champions. You are actually anti boxing that's the sad part, American Football was in London this weekend the NFL are openly laughing at the PBC, Dana and the UFC has a world map in his office he looks at everyday .to see how the UFC can conquer more of it . he thinks the PBC are a joke.

Al looks at the map of America and wonders how he can cut some States out to make the job more manageable .. PBC == dead boxing no other sport actively tries to shrink like boxing and its fans defend it.

14 million subs are not paying $99 a yr for boxing. Only in the US are they charging that price. In the UK they are charging 5 quid (what the fuq is a quid) and everywhere else they aren't charging anywhere near what amounts to $99 pr yr. Nice try but sorry to tell you over here in Murika that dog don't hunt. DAZN is the fat ugly hoe who went to the club with her two sexy friends. Nobody wants you and your just in the way messing everything up. Go do your global thang and let PBC TR and GBP handle the business of boxing over here!

The tragedy is what might have been. Instead of coming to the USA and trying to work with everyone dayzin and it’s Essex silver spoon spokesman tried to specifically target al Haymon to put him out of business and tried his best to leech fighters away from golden boy as well. The worst decision golden boy ever made was to go to dazin. They should have struck a deal with showtime, nbc, fox, cbs, or ESPN. Dayzin is an excellent idea and streaming sports is clearly the future but they got it ALL WRONG. There is no one in charge on that app that knows anything about boxing so they were swindled by Hearn and his boisterous promises

Fat ass Mikey has spent last two years waiting on Pacquiao pay day.

He is not ready for boxing at all.

Youre obviously a dopey american fairy.
no, you sillymfer...no 14m global subs right NOW...but it can easily get to that...thats my point. Someone has to open that market..and that means doing fights like this.
garcia vs prograis does nothing for the spanish market.
boxing globally is in the gutter cuz of american boxing subculture never catering for a global market.

Other sports like football(soccer), cater to a global audience and so its a multi billions industry.

And you're obviously a dicchead foreigner who will believe anything out of Eddie Hearn's mouth. If it was so easy to get to 14 million then they would be progressing towards that. They're actually regressing. When redhead left to go fight on PBC they lost a whole lot of subs. They probably don't even have 250k people over here that purchased the $99 yearly sub, and I'm being generous. As far as "catering for a global market", you're exactly right. We don't care about the global market because we are the globe!

"The NFL are openly laughing at the PBC"????? WTF???? Yea it's no reason going back and forth with you when you're making crazy ass statements like that. But thanks using the UFC comparsion to make my point. The UFC is an American company thats ran by an American Dana White and they are having great global success. Fighters from all over the world come to the US to sign up with the American company. The same needs to happen with American boxing and only Al, Bob or Oscar can do it. Although boxing was born in England it has been perfected in America and this is where it's done on the highest level. And when you say "Al looks at the map to cut out states", well sonnyboy if you (and Hearn) knew anything about American sports then you would know he has to do that. There are some states that are still operating like its 1850 and the 3 aforementioned gentlemen that I said will be the ones to run boxing, a *** a black and a Mexican, is the antithesis of what these confederate states live by, successful **********.

Mikey never should of went up to WW, it's not his weight class. Dude is an excellent fighter but his body isn't designed for 147, his limit is 135 or 140. Not everyone can move up in weight like Duran or Pac did.

I think the post-fight interview from Garcia was just as telling as his lackluster performance. To me, neither Garcia nor his team/entourage seemed to care a whole lot that he lost the fight. Reminded me of Joshua after losing to Ruiz. With the grand ring entrance, it almost feels now like it was a retirement fight.

It’s well known that despite all his talent, Mikey was reluctant to have a career in boxing. Since his dispute with Top Rank, it’s always seemed that Mikey just wanted to cash-out. I think he wasted 2-3 years of his career waiting out his TR contract, and then wasted more time waiting out a Pacquiao fight. Reminds me of Khan.

I really enjoyed his run at 126/130, and think he could have been competitive against Loma at 135. His championship fight against Salido was very entertaining, and showed off his impressive skill-set.

It’s unfortunate. If his only reason to remain as a fighter is the pay day, then he should retire. Without the passion to train and diet, he could get hurt against world class opposition.

Yep. Was my favourite current fighter once. He’s been part time for the last five years. Now he seems like he has no time for it. Just stares at his opponent doing nothing. The only calculations going on in his head are how many tacos he can eat and how much time off he can take after the fight. Take all the time in the world Mikey. We don’t need to see you again. Hard to care when he doesn’t.

We don't care about the global market because we are the globe!

You do yourself a disservice by making such an egotistical and insular comment.

The US is important, but the globe it is not. You are sadly mistaken if you actually believe such a ridiculous thing.
