Now the question is...what happens to Boots Ennis?

Well first things first. Boots needs to worry about fighting somebody with a pulse, not a corpse anymore. And then after that we can worry about him

So you have something personal against “pbc fans” then…why? Let’s get specific, let’s put all cards on the table. Where did this start and why has it persisted to the present…

It's because they cried about the app, and now they are using an app. It's simple. Are you reading something into my comment that isn't there?

I watched it via Hulu for the last few years as is, no one in their right mind has cable anymore. I’ve had Amazon a while now. I have about 5 big screen smart TVs in and outside my home including the backyard underneath the covered deck. The problem isn’t watching it on an app, the problem is many pbc fans didn’t want to throw in their lot with Eddie Hearn back in 2018 when he came as the representative for dazn. Had dazn presented itself with a different face, a more diplomatic face, a face that sought to bring everyone on bard rather than out pbc out of business while claiming the “American takeover”, I strongly believe boxing in the USA would look differently than it does now. Regarding Amazon, I don’t know anyone who doesn’t have it and most of the people I know are 50-70 years of age and are American, British, Irish. I don’t know how this amazon deal will turn out, but it gives boxing a much larger reach than it had yesterday. Comparing Amazon to dazn is like comparing the the SAS to the Girl Scouts.

leonard ellerbes said PBC don’t do fights on apps. Sorry fam

How has it become more fractured?

Compared to PBC going to DAZN or ESPN - but, also, because Amazon is big enough and has enough financial clout they can probably (and likely) keep their boxers paid well enough just fighting within their fiefdom

Lmao you sound like a moronic casual. 99% of fighters signed to Al are happy with him, he’s done great ppv numbers that the rest of the promoters only even dream of. It’s not Haymon fault that the tv executives have other plans

I'm sure 99% of anyone would be happy working one easy night a year for a huge payout. If Haymon was making them money, Showtime wouldn't have dropped him without a second thought, you idiot. Do these look like "great" ppv #s?
Tank-Garcia 1.2 mill
Canelo-Charlo 700k

Benavidez -Plant 49k

Didn't think so. Your zodiac sign must be a crayon. Go find the nearest adult before you hurt yourself.

Right on! Be nice if Amazon web services gets attached with some sort of next gen stats n data for the sport.

Cry………………

Fact are facts. Truth hurts. I wish then nothing but the best because I enjoy comptetive fights. But overpaying boxer for tomoato cans is not a good business model. Fans catch up to that.
