[El_Mero]

The article says it's a non-title fight. Always worth reading before firing off a lot of comments.

Even worse then. No voluntary defense? Weak fight. Hope Timmy khtfo quick

No surprise though.PBC are like Xmas, they turn up one day a year.

Everyone is into it before the event and a week later they are broke with nothing memorable to show for it.







Just jokes bro

I think if Tszyu were to lose a fight at the 154lb limit the title would become vacant. There may be another reason, I might look at the rules when I can stomach negotiating the WBO's horrible website.

If you can stomach it, let me know what you find out.

I think this appalling bad PPV makes it crystal clear Amazon is pay no money for licensing fees to PBC

This man sees the forest amongst the trees, unfortunately the 10 pages of posts before him still havent figured it out. If this is Amazon's grand boxing debut, boxing is in trouble and may cease to exist as a legitimate sport.

Unfortunately, this is a meaningless fight that nobody wanted and it's honestly not worth paying for...... but sure, lots of comments.

I've highlighted the relevant part below.

SECTION 15. NONCHAMPIONSHIP FIGHTS or NON-WBO
CHAMPIONSHIP FIGHTS
(a) A WBO champions shall not participate in a non-championship fight that is not a
WBO Championship without the prior authorization of the WBO World Championship
Committee. This authorization shall be subject to such conditions as the WBO World
Championship Committee determines. In addition, this authorization will be granted only
on the condition that the WBO Champion pay a fee to the WBO that is the equivalent of
the amount that he WBO Champion would have paid to the WBO if the non-championship
fight were conducted as a WBO Championship fight.
(b) If a WBO Champion participates in a non-WBO Championship or Non-title fight as
the case may be, the WBO World Championship Committee may order the WBO
Champion fulfillment of his Mandatory title defense immediately thereafter in spite of the
WBO Champion being within his voluntary title defense period.
(c) A WBO Champion who wins a non-WBO Championship in weight class that is
different than the weight class in which he holds his WBO Championship must
decide within ten (10) days of the non-WBO Championship which title in which
weight class he will retain. No WBO Champion may hold a non-WBO
Championship in a weight class that is different from the weight class of his WBO
Championship.
(d) The WBO may vacate the title of any Champion who conducts a contest in the
Champion’s Weight Division which is not a defense of the title.

Eddie love the attention, Haymon we have never even heard him utter a word….two figures who couldn’t be more diametrically polar opposite

I never mentioned Haymon
But he does have his puppets ; Ellerbe for one , Floyd or even Rolly speaks on behalf of PBC
Tank is another which has protected the PBC on tweets and in interviews
Just cause Haymon doesn’t come out guns blazing it don’t mean he doesn’t have his minions do it

And at this point "long time" Keith is the granny who takes her teeth out first.

Dont knock it till you try it. Just keep your eyes closed.

I didn't bother reading the whole thread, but I think the tons of comments is more negative than positive.

I mean, while skimming I didn't see a whole lot of "OMG I can't wait for this match awesome PBC!" comments but a lot of "what a crap matchup" in here.

[ShoulderRoll]

It’s not a bad fight and Rolly vs Pitbull is a decent co-main. Heck, even Zerafa vs Lara as a throwaway filler bout is alright.

The problem is no one was asking for these fights.
