Pbc has a lot of good fighters and hbo most of the stars, they both need each other. What a dumb sport.

Truer words were never spoken. Really pathetic how the fragile egos of some multi-multi-millionaires keep the sport fragmented and only a fraction of what it could be.Originally posted by El-blanco View PostComment

She had some good ratings with the akamek fights too. Similar to what PBC gets, only difference is she actually got paid to put on those shows, and she took pride in the events.Originally posted by SlySlickSmooth View PostAll these talented fighters and no stars, its odd.
Kathy Duva with Kovalev used to fight on NBC Sports and now he's a ratings draw on HBO
Once Haymon gets his 15% he doesn't do ****. PBC events are handing out tickets by the box.Comment

Rome wasn't built in a day & PBC won't be built in 4 months (the length of time they've been around). Show me any power broker in boxings roster after their first year let alone 4 months & I'll show you a meh roster. Maybe HBO's or TR's roster was pretty solid with a HUGE name or two cuz boxing was a open door back then, but its a highly competitive business these days & not as easy as back when Bob was participating in orgies & ****.
For the roster PBC already has they are already enough of a competitor to get the two biggest names in the promotion business to sue him for attempting to monopolize the talent. Wait til some of these big names get cut loose from nearly unbreakable promoter contracts. You'll see more guys coming to PBC. Andrade is a mfing knucklehead, but a talent & he's damn near offering bj's to get with PBC. More cats will be doing that. Talk to me about PBC's roster in Mar. 2017 when they got 2 years under their belt (and sadly for some of you fans PBC will still be around) & some big names current contracts have expired.Comment

The only special talent haymon has is errol spence.Comment

Spence has big implications in boxing potentially. Idk if I'd consider Wilder all that talented & I'm not even a fan, but I feel like post-Wlad he could end up being the man for some length of time & maybe, Tyson & Joshua could have some (very) poormans Ali/Frazier/Norton/Foreman thing going on. Beterbiev I could see easily garner a following like Kovalev or GGG have right now. And Haymon has a surprising amount of under 15 fight type guys who I suspect will result in a half dozen or so guys who will get wider attention at some point.Originally posted by BIPBAP View Post
Basically though what are some of you excepting this early in their plan? I know there are some very vocal fans who want PBC to fail & to make an analogy are trying to suggest a company that just spent a ****load of money on a building, employees & machinery should close the doors 4 months in cuz they haven't become the Walmart of boxing yet. Thats nuts & I hope none of you are entrepreneurs with that sorta mindset. Sometimes you gotta lose some battles to win the war.Comment

Where's the promotion for Beterbiev though? He was buried on Lara's undercard and has been silent since.Originally posted by Eff Pandas View Post
You see a new GGG or Kovalev press release every day it seems.Comment

Top rank is the only company that truly builds stars...
For pbc to be successful, they need to be the toughest matchmakers.. They obviously can't build stars, but they can put on interesting and compelling matchups...Comment

He's fighting in October. He'll be fine. He only has 9 fights. By this time next year he'll be big time.Originally posted by BertoRollin' View Post
GGG and Kovalev are champions. They're supposed to have press daily.Comment
