    and yet PBC fans were crying about having to watch boxing on their phones. You know it's true. I'm not slamming PBC, I'm slamming their dim fans (like you).

      There will always be something. I haven’t even heard what Rick Glaser has to say, but I bet you 1000 bucks it’s something negative lol.

        I’m just glad they found a home as a boxing fan. Not sure how I feel about the move though, I watch Thursday Night Football on prime and for some reason it always lags and feels cheap lolz

          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.
          Why is it always the same posters crying & weeping away haha. You & the dude named Regge are hurting.

              Uncle Al successfully secured another investor victim. Two years of funding max, which is really irrelevant. Important thing is uncle Al will always get his percentage cuts from his fighters no matter where the money comes from. Doesn't even matter if the new investor makes any profit. It's a no risk, win win situation for the advisor.

                It's not like SHO's PPVs were a drastic improvement though.

                The majority of us don't have an issue with PBC on Prime because we already have Prime, so PBC is basically a supplement. I think this is a clever way of PBC shielding themselves, and proves that DAZN/ESPN were not realistic destinations. DAZN/ESPN lives and dies on its sport content, so PBC would arguably be under more pressure to be consistent and to play well with the promoters already on those platforms. Amazon will definitely have their own expectations, so we'll see what PBC is allowed to get away with.

                Mr. Roarke found a new island, but I'm not sure he'll be able to deliver the same fantasies as before.

                    Boxing always finds a way. Crazy how PBC is now in the streaming apps world.

                      The same way DAZN boxing fans felt about purchasing PPV fights on its app. After Eddie Hearn had all but pronounced that that particular business model had become obsolete and outdated!
