So they’ll be no PBC fights until March? Did I read that correctly? If so, that’s a bummer. Hopefully Amazon reallocates some of the Thursday night football resources towards boxing. Their telecast is usually great.

Yeah that's correct - they have to retool their production team to produce boxing and that takes time to ramp up.... wouldn't be surprised if the telecast is a mix of TNF and new faces, ESPN does it a similar way.

Still going to have mismatches

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

He should floaty between whomever is going to get him the best fights at welterweight and light middleweight

Nobody is defending Eddie here. It's the dim PBC fans who didn't understand technology for years that I'm laughing at

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…

But it doesn't always mean the match-up was PPV-caliber.

PPV is to cover purses.

Don't worry, there is a reason Fox, Spike, and Showtime got rid of them. Overpaying boxers to figh tomato Cans. PBC needs other boxers who were made into Stars by other Promoters for their business to be successful example Ryan Garcia and Canelo created by GB. Terrrence Crawford created by Top Rank.

Hopefully they learn their lesson and actually put on competitive fights people want to see. No just stay busy fights.

Cry………………

All the fangirls praying for PBC's demise will once again have a sad Christmas.

Hey are punching the air right now like trey in boys in the hood

Boxing just got more fractured - best won't be fighting the best - but for me, PBC on Amazon is better than PBC on Showtime - i wonder if any of the Showtime presenters and production crew will get jobs at Amazon - I imagine not which will be a shame for them

How has it become more fractured?

Amazon boxing smh it keeps getting pushed further back from main stream

Define mainstream? Amazon is one of the most well known brands in the world.
