    Because of FOX, PBC was able to take a completely unknown fighter like Caleb Plant and turn him into a $10,000,000 fighter.

    Because of FOX, PBC was able to take a completely unknown fighter like Errol Spence and turn him into a successful PPV attraction.

    I know UK fanboys for some reason believe it somehow makes their country look better if they minimize the success of PBC, but the truth is that PBC gets exposure in front of the NFL audience which it then converts into new fight fans.
    It doesnt prove anything about PBC. All it means is Fox should switch to a promoter that makes good matchups, and makes matchups with other promoters, to put actual good fights on Fox. You're right, Fox is the best platform. But currently, it's matched with the worst promoter, and the worst stable of boxers. Put the best boxers on Fox instead, and now maybe you can build something.

      28 million lead-in show that fell to 1.8 by fight time ain't that great.

        Not bad, my only wish for next Christmas is Vito or Joey not being anywhere near the card. Put some real talent up. PBC has a stable, stop with horrible PPVs and put some of these guys out there as a gift for screwing fans all year with those garbage PPVs.

          Then why are we arguing if we agree?

            Why have the cards on FOX been so terrible in 2021?

              That's your opinion. I'm sorry you haven't enjoyed them.

                Most viewers were drunk football fans who forgot to turn off the TV after the packers-Browns game.

                      I'm guessing they are renegotiating their deal. They gave Fox some bad cards the last time this happened.
