Ahhh now I am getting it. FOX basically wants ppv’s from the pbc for their last year on the contract

[daggum]

My first thought was Hey thats a sort of cool matchup. Martin and Ortiz need each other so they can stay relevant. And the undercard is sort of interesting. Then I saw it was PPV. My second thought was too bad I wont be watching it. It shouldn't be PPV.

its the type of fight you would maybe put as the 4th fight on a ppv card, i mean charles martin lost to kownacki like....wow. that dude is such a bum i cant even believe that. ortiz should be fighting sanchez since sanchez is coming off a real good win but this is boxing and each guy is fighting a lesser opponent on the same card lol.

Trash! Neither of those bums are PPV worthy. PBC is complete garbage anymore. King of the trash PPV cards. I now wish for their downfall. Enough is enough. From "bringing boxing back on free tv" to bringing trash cards constantly on PPV. F**k Al Haymon and PBC.

[TampaBayTimmy]

Garbage PPV, real step back for Sanchez as well.

[Sctrojan]

Great for PBC fans,they just love buying any and all ppvs Al Haymon can dream up of. Been saying the coffers dried up long ago for PBC..."bringing boxing back to free TV doe"....

[CJFRENCH]

Boxing fans getting shafted as usual...

Tyson Fury "I don't want to fight Whyte i might lose" WBC "Do not worry leave it with use How about anyone in our top 15" What Kabayel OK"

$40 ain't bad. I would consider it for real. I thought they were gonna ask 80 I would've laughed at that lol

Honestly hope that Dazn matches this card with its own heavyweight event of not I will probably get it to since I’m a believer heavyweight main events should be stacked with heavyweight under cards . Not bad match ups however it could have used a better supporting co main event . The thing here is Negron is trained by Ortiz trainer and Sanchez is very close to Ortiz ,I,hope it’s a legit fight .

Negron is decent but the fight is predictable like most on the card ,besides Demerizen vs Washington and Ortiz bs Martin .

That would be ideal. I almost hate myself for acknowledging I am may get this. It shouldn't be PPV.

I'm not too impressed with Negron, I can't shake the memories of former middleweight Mendoza beating him down. As you said, the undercard matchups are fairly easy to figure out who should win. As for the main event, I think Ortiz catches Martin in a trap before early, thereby avoiding his normal stamina issues. My picks in bold.

Martin vs Ortiz Sanchez vs Negron
Demirezen vs Washington
Faust vs Kiladze
Coffie vs Rice

Garbage PPV, real step back for Sanchez as well.

Sanchez vs Breazeale would have been a far better co main event .
