    Thats why I'm hoping PBC to become the main brand.

      yes that's true but one of the reasons they weren't fighting the best was because haymon was managing them. hbo put the clamps on him and wanted him to make better fights so he decided to start his own boxing thing and now he's doing the exact same thing he was doing. the problems in boxing were the best weren't fighting the best because of promotional differences and not enough network slots to go around. now haymon shouldn't have any promotional conflicts since he has a ton of fighters and he shouldn't have any problem getting them dates since he's on like 7 different channels yet still he keeps making bum fight after bum fight.

      if pbc does become super dominant there's nothing to suggest haymon will suddenly make the best fight the best. if it does become popular based on these endless mismatches then that's going to tell haymon to keep making mismatches. I don't see how that is good for boxing.

        thats why I'm hoping for one umbrella for this sport. With one, promotional differences and networks don't come not play.

            [QUOTE=PulpFriction;15942598]Huh?

            With one umbrella company the likes GBP/TR feud will be gone with all fighters under PBC. Networks will not matter cause if they want to show fights it will be the PBC brand.

            Now it doesn't need to be PBC but just something similar.

            1 governing body type brand
