Comments Thread For: Figueroa Heavy, PBC on CBS Show Goes On Versus Burns

It's still unprofessional and happening too often on PBC cards. That shows how little they care about the fans if they cannot even bother to make weight. And yeah...Gomez is hardly a big A side fighter on ANY network. Well maybe he would be on PBC. lol

I think by the time he introduces titles to the PBC, the 'P' may stand for Prison Boxing Champions.

It's scary if what you're saying is true. Coming in intentionally overweight while you're opponent is professional and comes in dead on is cheating. I don't know if it's intentional but that's my opinion looking in from the outside.

It is happening almost every show with the "house" fighter and there are no or minimal repercussions...it's pretty much intentional.

You do know that one of GBP and HBO big "A-side" stars just missed weight by 8 lbs...right

and GBP RIGHTFULLY cancelled his fight. Haymon SHOULD be doing the same to teach his kids a lesson!

One guy kills himself to make weight and the other doesn't bother. It's worse than unprofessional, it's cheating. No better than doping.

Show must go on after all Haymon already paid for these timeslots pretty sure he isn't getting a refund.

He has a large contingency of 54lbers what's he going to do with them he might have 8 belts if you don't include anything below bantum or CW.

They don't call them Premier Bloated Champions for nothing.
