    Stay on topic. This has nothing to do with Oscar other than it being his magazine.

      Read the whole 5 parts and it just seemed like it was the same old nothing new except Hauser throwing in his negative spin on the PBC and trying his best to discredit it.

      Expected a little more ,at this point it just seems Hauser riding off his reputation

      Seems like a bit of desperation from HBO, GB & Ring Mag. Just bitter that in 1 year PBC and associates has taken over HBO

      Don't know if it Will it succeed but If your a boxing fan how can PBC be a bad thing

        If Zane Simon was hired by Bellator and suddenly started criticizing everything UFC, and never writing about Bellator, how do you think that would go over in the MMA community?

          People would still be clueless.

            The MMA forums I frequent are a lot different from boxing fans. They want their fighters to get paid more. They don't dump a fighter just because he loses. They don't eat their own like boxing. And the media members help build the sport up instead of tearing it down. The media seems to realize that by building the sport up they have job security. Think about it. Boxing is a niche sport that has been pushed to the "other" tab on sports sites. MMA has it's own tab. A person is trying to bring boxing back to the mainstream. More fights. More for them to write about. I saw Dan Rafael post last year that this is the most fights he's covered since he's started writing about boxing. Boxing writers should love that. The boxing media tears the sport down and then wonder why they have to work a 9-5 and can't write about boxing full-time. And that's the reason they can be bought off by promoters so easily. They can't afford trips to cover fights so they allow the promoters to fly them out, feed them, and give them access for good coverage. Haymon isn't playing that game. That's why he's being attacked. All it would take to buy Rafael off is a free buffet and a chance to watch the fights at Haymon's house. And it's a shame because he works for the biggest sports outlet. But he's more of a fan than a journalist.

              I wish I could've been at Arum's house party with Dan Rafael. This way I could say, "yo dawgie Dan, I've got the munchies, **** a bltch let's order some football pizzas and hot wingz, but I aintz got no loot brah!" Then Dan says, "don't worry bout that shzzz I got you nigg!" Then we all get pissed drunk, spike Arum's drink and everybody's and then go lurk into the dungeon and find satanic Zionist books that Indiana Jones wouldn't even know about and finding Yuri Foreman and Hauser as wind up cyborgs all chained up, with an empty chamber titled "Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s Soul."

                Great Posts , Agree 100%

                That's one of my biggest problems with boxing media is that they pick sides and try to destroy instead of rebuild

                It's like everything PBC isn't garbage, Everything HBo is sh.it

                MMA does a great job trying to build their fighters and sport compared to boxing that's probably one of the reasons why boxing has the most life hating miserable people as fans. The media loves to fan the flames of negativity for whatever reason. hoping it changes

                As for Rafeal that tweet just shows what a clown he is, this fat f.uck who probably hasn't seen his own d.ick since the 80s who sweats out butter mother f.ucker has the nerve to criticize YouTube reporters for being fan boys and constantly criticizes the fighters he covers. The YouTube guys are some of the. Best places to get non-biased opinions because you don't really get that from most boxing media.

                  This is why I've always liked Jake. He doesn't show bias one side or the other but will call out BS when he sees it. And he wants to be correct instead of first.

                    And this is why it ended up on the site that's owned by the company suing Haymon

Fans are wondering why Loma-Walters only getting offered $1mil. Crawford going to PPV. Cotto-Kirkland going to be on PPV. Herschman and Taffert leaving and Nelson's former job still not filled. There is way more going on at HBO than PBC.
                      Those are articles I'd read.
