With robberries like Garcis Peterson, is PBC on the path to failure?

    When a casual sees this, it will seem like a robbery, when your own commentators are saying this!

    You have the official scorecard saying one think, and then you have the commentators explaining why Peterson is schooling Garcia.

    Casuals will think its a robbery, gamblers will once again be turned off from boxing, who used to be a big part of boxing.
    You are in the minority that think that Peterson won. Peterson came on the end which is more memorable but still gave a round away in between

          PBC is around until 2018. So deal with it, I mean they took-over ESPN's operation of Friday Night Fights. I just hope they get rid of the ****** stage and have the boxers walk in that way, it's just cheap, reminds me of WWE and has no business in boxing. As long as they clean-up some of the ****** goofy crap and let the fighters come out to their own music not this garbage by Hans Zimmer who clearly doesn't get a crap and threw that stuff together. PBC should get a nice TV deal eventually, and should work out for Haymon at the end.

            not only that but the majority of the public are turned off by boxing because of that joke of a century fight (if you can even call it a fight).

              At the rate they are spending money and getting nothing in return, if they were ever to get a deal it would be about 100 years before they will manage to break even. With the court battles on the way, I would be surprised to see PBC last to the end of 2016. Haymon will be lucky if he doesn't end up in some hole in the desert when it's all said and done.
