Pro Box is buying boxingscene?

They’re currently addressing this on their fight card

Hmmm. BPP leaving huh? My first thought is obviously about the Pick Em and what repercussions this is going to have for the prize fund. Probably gonna be a case of negotiating with whoever they put in charge of the forums I guess.

I can't believe they failed to re-up with Breadman - for me, that was the best reason to log in.

Bread will be missed - and I still never quite got to the bottom of whether he was the poster Blackbread904 or whatever - strong hints in that he was the only player to Pick J-Rock over Hurd in the prediction league plus a couple other clues about fights he mentioned he'd been to that I know Breadman had.. And well - y'know.. The name.

Might all be coincidence though

I mean Oscar already owns Ring.

The belt groups got all kinds of sketchy sh^t floating around them.

As long as ppl know who owns things idk if igaf THAT much. Ik to not take Ring too seriously with how they rank GBP boxers or an opp. Gotta have an eye on Ring hyping a GBP guy too much. Apparently we are gonna need to do that here with Probox moving forward if this news is true.

I was against that too.

Didn't realize ProBox had money

ProBox owner has BIG money. I mean BIGGGG money. High 9 figures, maybe even 10 figures by now......

Hope ProBox stays true to this place, sucks that BPP will probably be moving on

Danm they fired breadman but not that hanz thermostat guy?

Themistode probably contributes for free.

If that newspaper solely focused on writing about package delivery and tv broadcasting, then yes.

Look at it this way. What if Golden Boy had bought it? Or Eddie Hearn? Or PBC? I see a HUGE conflict of interest.

But maybe its just me........

Many of the articles are effectively placement ads anyway.

I don't see the big drama here to be honest. This place is hardly a bastion of quality journalism.

The Ring is clearly diminished since it was forced online only and is having to compete with the clickbait crowd. Its prestige came from its print magazine - which no longer exists.
