    If all of this divide in boxing can end, it would be great for the sport. This little divide among Networks, Promoters and Fans is not benefiting anybody!

    You can't have fans and Boxing media divided like this and then turn around expect good ratings and PPV Buys. Everybody is being effected in a bad way because of this Divide.

        Numerous financial reports about the loses of his investors. And in the last few week numerous reports of haymon trying to cut costs because those losses. And the number of pbc shows a month have dropped for months and now they basically halted completely with everything going back to showtime. You don't need to see a financial spreadsheet to see the writing is on the wall. PBC has been a disaster of epic proportions. LA Times reported that lawsuits are coming from the people who lost millions in this PBC investment.
        Cutting costs is what companies do. I'm sure PBC is operating at a loss right now. From everything I've heard about the PBC this is a 4 year plan. I have my own trucking company and I can tell you first hand the first year is by far the toughest.

          4 year plan? They are almost out of money 10 months in and can't afford to put out any PBC cards. They lavishly spent money and generated less revenue then expected. Losses are clearly far larger then they anticipated. You don't send fights to showtime after you paid millions for air time on other networks for your PBC brand if things are going as planned.

            By having Dominic Wade get his first mandatory title shot? gtfoh.

              Haymon never left HBO, HBO left Haymon, so no reason for Haymon not to place his fighters on there. If Wade beats GGG, it creates a star for the PBC series. No rematch clause with mandatories.

                He's always used Showtime. That's not evidence. I'm sure Als operating at a loss but where you and me differ is how do we know the PBC is almost out of money. PBC is very tight lipped so I don't buy the reporting. The media operates with an agenda especially in boxing.

                    Financial reports not boxing media says this



                    And there are websites claiming what they did was fraud and trying to locate all those who lost money for a future class act lawsuit again PBC investors. That's the upcoming lawsuit LA times reported.

                    http://www.investorclaims.com/Broker...Reed-Inc-.aspx

                    This is way past just boxing media and any agendas.

                    And if all haymon wanted to do was work with showtime then he would of never flushed hundreds of millions down the drain to create a new brand called PBC. He is going back to showtime airing his fighters because PBC is failing and losing too much money he can't afford to air PBC cards.

                      This lines up with reports earlier this week about major changes coming from haymon fighters as a result of the massive loses from PBC.
                      I hope this is dead wrong. I love free boxing.

                      BUT, that said, how funny is this: We all know that the biggest Haymon cheerleaders also happen to be some of the biggest GGG haters. I could name a bunch of reasons why, but that's unnecessary right now.

                      The point is, the post you quoted above is from Rick Glaser, the guy who claimed HBO lied about Golovkin's PPV numbers and that he sold only 97K vs. Lemieux. As far as they were concerned, that information may as well have been the gospel truth.

                      Now I wonder what they're gonna say about poor Rick when he says Haymon blew all the money and PBC is hurting badly? Something tells me they won't blindly believe Mr. Glaser this time around
