        How many fights did Showtime put on last fall, minus the Floyd PPV? How many fights does HBO have scheduled minus the PPV's?

            PBC is going bankrupt.

            Not haymonds money and he also got all those fighters to sign with him throwing away other peoples money with pbc.

            haymand knows how to get rich, its using OPM.

                Broner, DeGale vs Bute, Jacobs vs Quillin and they picked up the Lee vs Saunders fight. That's a lot? They have a fight scheduled on shobox. Joshua fights in November. Talking about a October card that should be finalised soon. And they'll have December fights. They're on schedule to do the same or more than last year.

                  I got no idea man, I like PBC and everything they're doing, but it seems the rumours about Al running out of cash are true, why are guys like Thurman, Garcia, Porter etc fighting once every 10 months? These guys are very vocal about wanting to stay active but they're fighting one a year, twice at most if we're lucky.

                  I know Al has a big stable and it can't be easy handling over 200 fighters, but if the problem isn't cash, he's doing a terrible job keeping these guys active.
                  It's Al Haymon's own fault. He was too hardnosed and progressive with his vision. He has burned so many bridges in the boxing world and with true fans he's associated with being the main issue for why the best fights can't be made. He doesn't make any compromises and makes it almost impossible to do business with. Just look at the Pac vs Floyd fight and how those negotiations went. Haymon had a litany of contract stipulations over the entire promotion. He wanted complete control over every facet of it. You can't expect the best fights to be made when Al Haymon goes to war with those who aren't an affiliate of PBC. I think PBC could work if they made it like Friday night fights. Not overly produced with theatrics and delusional hype but a less is more approach with green fighters and guys in the twilight of their careers. He needs to broaden his horizons and stop investing so much into the stock of guys like Danny Garcia. If Danny Garcia didn't have Haymon he'd be irrelevant. His biggest mistake is spoiling his favorites signed with him. Say what you want about Floyd but he really made a star out of Guerrero by beating him. Haymon should have his fighters signed to exclusively fight on his primetime boxing monopoly but give them the freedom to fight as a free agent for HBO/SHOW PPV. Maybe they already do have that right but Haymon always just talks his fighters out of going in alone against a rival promotion. A major thing that is cheesy and dumb is this reality show like casting for PBC boxers. It's like a show and this season, no matter how ****ty a headliner is or if they lose (Guerrero, Broner, Berto, Garcia), will continue to appear everywhere like their stock and ranking is on the rise.

                    Yeah but doesn't he get 5-10% for being their manager? Hmmmm those pay days make a ton of sense now lol....

                      3)Showtime still gets the first dibs on fights for the coming Fall
                      4)negotiations are going to be negotiations [Danny Garcia's next fight, Charlo-Williams, the likely Frampton-Santa Cruz rematch, Thurman's mandatory defense, Stevenson-Alvarez, and a host of other fights still need to get worked out before dates are set]

                      Beyond that, in case you didn't know, HBO Boxing is dead after this weekend (sans the Alvarez PPV) until mid-November, after already going through a light summer.

                      nice try, though
                      I'm pro PBC.
