What's going on with PBC?

There used to be threads like this one below on this site, but they stopped:

Official: PBC on Spike- Stevenson vs Williams Jr RBR Thread

I don't find a similar thread for Jacobs vs Mora!
Why?

Welcome to how the world works, not just in the sport of boxing. Fame is fleeting. Anyways you absolutey have to entertain fans and please critics etc etc. They are who pay the fighters checks without them there is no boxing. I don't want to hear no **** about the risk, they chose to be a fighter, ****ing act like one. It would be like a cop showing up to a bank robbery and being like, "I'm not paid enough for this. I'm going to sit this one out and come back tomorrow when I only have to deal with someone jaywalking". Its a ridiculous argument. No one is forcing these guys to be fighters.

therealpugilist doesn't understand that the business that he is talking about is the show business, the entertainment business. i swear this guys think money grows in the trees.

for example how can you justify 1.5 million dollars purse for a guy that fights in a half empty arena and that does shitty numbers on tv? money grows on trees

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.

Did you actually LOOK?

There's a sticky one at the top of this forum page that's been there for 3 days.

Gervanta Davis is at the Jacobs-Mora II fight tonight. Maybe an announcement on something today.

Really? Wow.. thank you. I didn't know he was on the undercard.

No, you don't and no, that's not how the world works. All you have to be is profitable.

Exhibit A: Floyd Mayweather (at least according to folks on this site)
Exhibit B: Zou Shiming
Exhibit C: Tyler Perry

He's not. He's saying he will be at the fight.

He's not on the undercard. He was at the weight in yesterday.
