    If you put HBO top fights or even meaningful fights up against PBC, you pretty much have the same quality of fights

      Postol/Matthysse(with a good undercard with Soto)

      PBC:
      Mares/Santa Cruz
      Thurman/Guerrero
      Garcia/Broner

      HBO by far has the better product this year.
      Garcia-Broner? That never happened.

            Yeah but PBC has the roster to put up great fights but they haven't.

                In the fall. Seems July and August just keeping guys active.

                HBO had one event un July, one event in June and nothing in August.

                PBC is on every week.

                  been hearing that for years now.

                  this should be the time to strike then right? no competition, no football season...yet still crappy fights.

                    When it comes to the fight game. He's an inexperienced novice and amateur. He refuses to pitch his best fighters against each other; Which is hurting the sport. Unlike the Bob Arum's and Don King's he's not giving the boxing public the fights that they want to see. People tune in to watch good competitive fights not exhibitions. It's the reason why HBO draws the line in the sands when it comes to matchmaking, in order to prevent the constant cherry picking seen by Al Haymon fighters along with their mismatches.

                      You have to build up the audience first. You can't expect Al to use up his best fighters in his first year. The man has a 4 year plan.
