    Technically, you're off a bit; Viacom (which has SpikeTV) and CBS Corp (which has CBS/Showtime) are actually two separate companies, though both companies are owned by the same private corporation (National Amusements).

    It'd be like going to Safeway to buy your produce, going to Lucky's to buy your meats, and Albertson's to buy everything else you buy, not realizing that you're still getting all of your products from one company (Albertson's Companies Inc, which owns the three mentioned grocery chains and another 15 ones).
    ok, thanks for the clarity.

      I am not suggesting its ideal.
      ... TNT/TBS/etc are owned by Turner Broadcasting, which is owned by Time Warner Inc (also home to HBO)

        That should give you the gauge of the type of opponent that they are going to select next
        It's too early to tell how good/bad Sam Eggington is, but to call the guy a Euro bum is ridiculous. He's got a fight coming with Frankie Gavin (a fringe world-level challenger), and that should clear some things up.

        Still, the dude turned pro at 18, had only 40 amateur fights beforehand (apparently never winning anything of note), and loss 2 of his first 11 fights. He's learning his craft as he goes (and his run since that initial bit, of 9-1, gives hints that he may be able to fight a bit).

            How much do you guys think Garcia will be getting paid to fight Salsa's clone? I say 2m+.

              Why do some of you give credit to guys who "moved up" because they would die if they kept having to try to make the lower weight?

                It doesn't matter how good he is or isnt. The guy is 20 fkin 2 years old with barely any experience under his belt as you pointed out. So, how are you even attempting to justify them looking at Eggy?

                  I think if Haymon wanted to get Danny a really easy win they could just see what Matthysse is up to.

                      ^^^

                      Dunn, word of advice, drop it. It didn't bother me one bit in 2013 and it still doesn't.
