What's going on with PBC?

[Damn Wicked]

Ridiculous how some of the guys on here are defending the fact that some PBC fighters are having 1 fight per year.

[MasterPlan]

The NBC deal is up at the end of the year.

There's a NBC card Oct 8 and Oct 22.

After last weeks NBC-SN show. They said it's a show Oct 8. And the Sosa-Davis fight rumoured for NBC on Oct 22.

Ok cool Dan Rafael is the one who said the NBC deal is done at the end of the year.

I think December 17th is the last NBC card they have the MGM Grand on hold.

Why are there no fights scheduled for October,November and December?

This has been a long time coming. Al haymon is a criminal. He violates the ali law, continously tries to enforce mismatches that make no business sense, and over pays fighters and by extension that money reaches him.

PBC was doomed from the start. In his infinite arrogance Haymon thought he could take over boxing. Turns out he wasnt as good as he thought he was. In order for his plan to work he would have had to execute pbc perfectly and he just wasnt capable to do that. Fights in so many nrtworks that the fans cant keep track. Continous mismatches. Big fighters barely fighting so he could guarantee them their unjustifiable purses. Then theres also the fact that he straight up stole some of the money.

His plan could have worked but in the end he just couldnt balance being corrupt, while overpaying fighters, delivering a good product, and also turning a profit. I doubt he cares though, he got payed in the end.

Hmmm, MGM gotta be a big show. Wonder what it'll be.

no one is defending that.

I KNOW I want to see some of the guys more active, its just the people worried about how much they get paid is weird


Boxers have been getting screwed out of money and underpaid since the beginning.....they are finally getting higher % of the money they generate...nothing wrong with that considering they are the ones putting their life on the line.

He's nothing more than a groupie. He will defend boxers (only the ones he likes, mind) even if it means shitting on the sport he is supposed to love.

i will defend boxers...... period....you dumb azz blood hungry idiots minimize the sacrifices they make


they are human, not puppets

their lives and ability to have a great life during and after their careers means a lot more to me than your bloodlust for violence

I enjoy watching the fights, Idgaf about the purses unless its too little. You put yourself in danger playing contact sports, you should be compensated well for it

have you ever played any contact sports? not at home but organized?
