    The PBC show was a disgrace..who approves these mismatches in Toronto?

    As the usual with PBC cards, we get a whole bunch of mismatches hoping that Haymon can at some point provide us with a decent match up like Santa Cruz vs Mares. Meanwhile who oversees the matchmaking in Toronto? Why was Vivian Harris even allowed to fight? Harris is old in boxing standards and is 3-6-1 in his last 10 fights and was stopped 5 times out of those six loses. Not only that but his last ko loss happened in Toronto. How is he allowed to fight an undefeated prospect on prime time tv?

    PBC is dog shlt man. It's terrible. One good fight for every 30 terrible mismatches. There's no point in watching. People must place zero value on their time.

      PBC using Spiketv and Foxsport1 for mismatches to make the fight look good is not a bad thing, Mismatches is only bad when they are on CBS, NBC, ESPN, and Showtime

          Using old contenders that have been on a concussion streak as a sacrificial lamb on TV is not the way to do it

                  Spence/van Heerden was a good undercard fight, but Stevenson's last 3 fights were jokes. Tonight's card with Quillin/Zerafa is a joke as well, and while Bundrage/Charlo seems like a good undercard fight, Bundrage could stink out the joint.

                  I hope Quillin destroys Zerafa so that he starts getting his confidence back, then goes on to beat Jacobs and finds the courage to challenge Golovkin.

                    I think they were just posing. Al might want to build the status of both guys a little more first so that he has something to excite the public after Mayweather's gone.

                    I could see Porter or Thurman fighting Berto at the end of the year and the other fighting Maidana.
