Are more fighters standing to realize that Al Haymon/PBC is dead broke?

[Kigali]

i hope its the case. PBC is one of the things responsible for boxings demise, inhouse fighters matched with in house fighters who arent at their level, in order to build up records. You get the odd good fight but its mismatches for the most part. GLad its going down the toilet

The guy in your Avi is the king of mismatches....just look at his last fight...

PBC/Haymon aren't going down the toilet..but it's good to see you have hope in your life.

Bunghole strikes out again.

Hey man, not cool. Bungz is a legend. Respect him, please.

[Agent Mulder]

Everything is all speculation. No one in the media is interested in straightening it out for us. No one knows why PBC fighters who used to at least fight twice a year suddenly became inactive. Some fought only once and some fought zero times, zero. We're not even talking about prospective fighters, we're talking about fighters who have already been built up and have established name recognition. And when they do come back, ****** fans would give them instant excuse why they need tuneup fights or expect them not to do well due to long layoff as if it's fans fault.

Who are you talking about exactly? Names please.

Who are you talking about exactly? Names please.

You want names?

"Yet there are a whole bunch of top fighters aligned with PBC who have only fought once this year who are in need of bouts. They include Daniel Jacobs, Garcia, Thurman, Shawn Porter, Adonis Stevenson, Andre Berto, Jermall Charlo, Jermell Charlo, Julian Williams, Erislandy Lara, Vanes Martirosyan, James DeGale, Badou Jack, Anthony Dirrell, Andre Dirrell, Austin Trout, Adrien Broner, Rances Barthelemy, Gary Russell Jr., John Molina Jr., Dejan Zlaticanin, Jose Pedraza, Edner Cherry and Lee Selby, among others.

Perhaps some of the fighters have fought only once by design but certainly not all of them or even most of them. But when so much of the money that was once there to bankroll PBC cards is gone, it's hard to keep guys busy at their expected purse level.

There are others who have not fought at all this year, including Peter Quillin, Devon Alexander, Lamont Peterson, Jesus Cuellar and Abner Mares."

You couldn't put this in the other Thread you started about Haymon and PBC you had to start another thread REALLY?

Biased Haymon shill, STFU and GTFO

[al-Xander]

Any confirmation of PBC being broke?
Why are most of its fighters suddenly became inactive?

[asgarth]

I dont believe for a second, that all these boxers are satisfied with the amount of fights/paydays they get.

Just take a look at the rooster:

No fights in 2016:
Lamont Peterson
Omar Figueroa
Devon Alexaner

One fight in 2016:
Keith Thurman
Erislandy Lara
Danny Garcia
Shawn Porter
Daniel Jacobs
Adonis Stevenson
Lee Selby
Jermall Charlo
Adrien Broner
James DeGale
Eleider Alvarez
Jose Pedraza
Jermell Charlo
Anthony Dirrell
Vanes Martirosyan
Mickey Bey
Julian Williams
Paul Malignaggi
Tony Harrison
Andre Dirrell
Gary Russell Jr.
Andre Berto
Badou Jack
Steve Cunningham
Austin Trout
Anthony Joshua
Ishe Smith
Chris Algieri
Marcus Browne

two fights in 2016:
Carl Frampton
Leo Santa Cruz
Errol Spence Jr.
Deontay Wilder
Robert Easter Jr.
Sammy Vazquez
Sergiy Derevyanchenko
Thomas Williams Jr.

Even if we dont know anything about the business numbers of PBC, all signs lead us to believe, that PBC is done.
Boxing is in shambles at the moment. How can you expect the sport to grow, when most of the marquee fighters only fight once per year.

Don't know what exactly you meant there. But based on those number of fighters, I can agree that they can't all possibly be in sync in preferring to fight less than twice a year or not fight at all. It's also possible they were offered fights, but rejected them because the risks involved doesn't tally with the pay, ie, fighting a tougher opponent should double or triple the expected paycheck.

We don't know if this is self-imposed inactivity or whether Haymon simply ran out of funds to continue overpaying them. If it's the latter, then it would take probably another year of inactivity before seeing them complain.

Chris algieri is signed to haymon?? lol I thought this fool gave a college degree? What a dumb move that was haha
