    3. Scott Pemberton vs. Omar Sheika
    4. Micky Ward vs. Emmanuel Augustus
    Wasn't Danny Garcia vs Theophane on that undercard?

    While the fights listed were all very entertaining, the Mares-LSC was a much BIGGER fight than anything FNF has put on.

      Its fun working you on PBC. It's a win win situation when talking about it with you!
      If you need tickets theres tons available for tomorrow's Shawn Porter vs Keef thurman blockbuster fyi you should support pbc boxing

        Granted. But FNF was never about big money fights.

          Nah. I prefer to tune into the CBS broadcast on the 4K 60" and watch pristine cameras that HBO's behind in. Yeah, that PBC.

            ah with the commercials right? Nothing beats being there in person. Of course that costs $ and I guess not too many are putting much of that out to support PBC with these seats still available.

              Nah. I don't need to spend on a flight going to the Barclay's, when I can watch on a free cast on a lovely 4K.

              You should give up complaining about PBC. I'd like to hear you complain about American sports broadcasting on primetime, be it an NBA or NFL match. Usually people talk about the games unless you focus on commercials or entertained with the corner's closeups.

                commercials always suck thats what i like so much about showtime and hbo. There isn't much more to complain about with PBC. Like Dan rafael said today in his chat, NBC is dropping PBC end of this year when their contract runs out.

                  Maybe you didn't get the memo that CBS Sports owns Showtime and much "simmering" had to be done before proposing its return in how many years? I doubt Haymon Sports is worried about NBC Universal when CBS Sports has more affiliated friends that benefit Haymon. I'm sure Espinoza, Haymon, and some other CBS execs have went to Gentlemen's clubs

                    IMO it was a huge gamble on Floyd vs Pac reigniting interest in boxing with such huge exposure. That flopped big time, feels like they've been mailing it in ever since, just milking the remaining funds

                      BounceTv and ESPN are just about of PBC as well. Will depend on if they can keep FOX which is up in the air. I think that is their key.
