What did you guys think of the PBC commercial on NBC?

Did this even come on during the Super Bowl? I dont remember seeing it on tv. Judging by when this thread was made it seems like it aired over an hour and a half before the game even started.

Yeah that's one that bugs me out. Some people have fair opinions and others are just wishing it fails or wanna diss it because it's the evil Al Haymon. He gave us Garcia-Salka! Forgetting that he also gave you Garcia-Khan, Garcia-Judah, Garcia-Matthysse, etc. Ok we get it.

Who here in this thread wishes it to fail? Link to the person and post.

UFC is more popular than boxing, and it was on network tv, did that make a difference?

And those UFC fights on network tv, fox tv, were far more competitive and stacked than these Haymon garbage fights.

Network TV is a shell of what it used to be. Cable TV now gets viewing numbers that are bigger than network TV, walking dead has better numbers than most network garbage.

Network TV is still popular with old, dying people. No one else gives a fug about network TV. Haymon is a ****** old black man that is out of touch. It is better for boxing if he fails.

I was agreeing with you, why are you so upset? These boxing matches are more than one event which is ****** by Al Haymon. He should have just made one event for network TV. No one wants to be on network TV anymore. Even The Tonight Show wants to move to cable.

Looks like crap. Fights are ok, not great. They will get crap again like usual. Haymon is bad for boxing, just a puppet for paper champs.

Why is Garcia Peterson at a catchweight with no titles on the line? Haymon corruption. Why was all his cards last year dog crap? Haymon will ruin boxing. Thankfully, this whole thing is going to fail.

It would be great if Haymon and his family was killed in a robbery.

Other than Thurman, they are all bums. That is the problem with Haymon and these fights, he will just shovel garbage and this is why it will fail.

Danny is a bum who cannot even make weight, yet is headlining a fight? Haymon's greed will be the reason this cannot possibly succeed. It will fail spectacularly.

ANd its good boxing is back on network TV? I think it's two decades too late, as no one fugging watches network TV anymore. Welcome to freaking 2015, you know, the year where people watch Netflix, not fugging network TV.

Network TV is dying, has been for years. The average age of network TV viewers is over 60 fugging years old. No one gives a crap about it, Haymon is an idiot.

I agree. That's why the Superbowl was on netflix this year and not on network TV. Al Haymon is an idiot.

Yeah most aren't even that blatant but I don't know how you can ask a dumb question like Sleepless did when you can clearly see posts like the one you quoted. Actually I do know why he would ask that dumb question. It's when that burn hits your soul and you're feeling sore.

Least there are more responses that want to see it succeed and are happy about finally getting better matches on tv.

I thought it was cool, but they arent movie stars. They're boxers, instead of showing them walking on some red carpet they shouldve shown one KO of each person, what else is gonna attract casual fans?

See above.

Ah, fair enough then. I'm happy to see though it's just two borderline trolls who are not at all representative of most people here.

I asked this question a few pages back - does Haymon have the rights to that footage?

It normally belongs to the promoter, which would mean it's all Oscar's.
