      Nice suggestion. But my point was that they should have an entity like a Monday night Football, Sunday night football of that sort you know. To scatter events all around would not, and it has not gained the notoriety that it should have.

        The more free TV boxing gets, the better. Great move. Hope more networks get on board. The only way to get memorable fights is to have plenty of them. The more it's on, the better chance the sport has. Exposure, exposure, exposure.

          On the real bro, he's giving us too much mediocre boxing. There's some ppl who don't care and just wanna see boxing. Those ppl are in heaven. Not me though. There was boxing all this week and I didn't bother watching any of it. He's giving us tons of boxing but I don't care for most of it.

            Bruh, give them a minute ffs. Did a lil counting & as of tomorrow they will have had 34 cards in 33 weeks. No one is doing what they are doing...ever I think in boxing. I think they are still trying to find there bearings with this whole entity & it seems like they are figuring things out a lil better now than a month or two ago.

            Personally I don't see anything wrong with throwing a bunch of pasta on the wall & see what sticks with these TV dates. Might not be optimal, but with a half a billion bankroll I think its probably the best way to get things rolled out quickly & make maximum impact on the competition & fans.

            They've been scaling up big too. The first 3 months there were 8 cards. The 2nd 3 months there were 12 cards & this 3rd 3 month period which would go through November will have 21 cards.

            And for those who are acting like PBC is f#ckboying boxing fans with their cards here's TR's schedule.

              All of those TR cards suck
              None of them are even 50/50

                Still meaningless if you keep having mismatches.

                PBC is a great concept but for the stable he has, the lack of premier fights have been terrible.

                  TR stable isn't deep though. You'd expect these cards more because they don't have the boxers to have great fights all the time.

                    This is the test phase of the entire effort; you give as many people as possible access to the sampler, before closing down the major deal with whatever party is most interested in the effort.

                    The 'Friday Night Lights Out' monthly deal on SpikeTV seems to be set as a longterm deal, as is the monthly deal with ESPN; BouneTV will also likely have their own deal. Everything else is likely to go to whomever wants boxing the most.

                    Showtime/CBS/CBS Sports, NBC/NBCSN, Fox/FS1, and possibly ABC will be in the mix for the final bids (imo, the deal likely ends up with Showtime/CBS picking up the main PBC deal, using boxing to fill out their TV schedules when football season is over, while also continuing to build Showtime into the top player when it comes to premium boxing).

                    You won't really know what channels/times work unless you actually test them out.

                      What's going to hurt Haymon more is not the suit that Arum filed but the suit that GBP filed for violating the Ali Act. Haymon tried to have that case to arbitration and the judge shot it down.

                      http://www.latimes.com/sports/sports...917-story.html
                      Ali Act was written to protect fighters from getting ****ed by promoters (like having a fighter's manager also be on the payroll of the promoter); the Ali Act was not written to protect promoters.

                      De La Hoya picked up a sizable settlement payment in court, and is now simply trying to pick up another settlement payment (note how the De La Hoya suit only seeks to have the time period after the first settlement considered in their "grievance").

                      Neither suit is going to go anywhere; once Lemeiux loses and All Star Boxing gets their own payout for Golden Boy poaching 'Canelo', Oscar will have his entire company riding on the hope that Alvarez has defeated Cotto in exciting fashion.
