HBO has the best fighters in the world

Interesting. I don't know if I can see them completely leaving the sport of boxing.boxing still makes more money

Nothing lasts forever. And it can't be making as much as it used to cuz they've cut the budget every year for over a decade at this point I believe. I believe HBO Boxing used to get nearly $100M a year & last I heard are now getting around $40M a year. They haven't did a PPV that got more than 750k buys in 3 years that was 100% an HBO promotion. I suspect Canelo vs Cotto ends that drought, but still thats the reality right now.

hbo has 6 of the top 10 p4p fighters. probably 7 as i'm guessing the cotto/canelo winner will be on the list. pbc has zero, and BET has one with ward.

Hbo has always had the best fighters since they started broadcasting boxing.

The only time they didnt have the best fighters was in 2013.

Haymon has created a vast network of fighters and almost trampled GBP underfoot.

However, HBO does, in terms of quality, have the better fighters, there is literally no doubt about that.
