Haymon has the biggest stable in boxing by far, and had 400mil at his disposal and still managed to fail. Them pbc fanboys say hbo is no better.
HBO put forward crawford/postol, kovalev/ward, gonzalez/cuadras, and loma/walters all in the same year. #1 vs #2 at 140, the fight for #1p4p and 175 supremacy, current #1p4p vs #2 at 115(could have been vs #1 at 115 but inoue be scared), loma/walters arent considered the best at 130 but thats because they have barely fought there. However i wouldnt bet against loma or walters if they fought anyone else at 130.
Thats 4 great matches in 2016. But hey, pbc has garcia vs vargas and most in their roster barely fought in 2016. PBC be free doe! If i wanted free stuff i would move to venezuela. Apparently free stuff has a cost. But that isnt even a real issue in this case. If you cant afford it you can always stream, or keep out of nsb for a couple of hours until it gets uploaded somewhere. No reason to complain about great hbo matches, but plenty to protest pbc mismatches.
PBC is dead, and for any true boxing fan that is cause for celebration. Up until the early 2000's boxing was good enough. Although leonard carved the path to what would happen by what he did to hagler, you couldnt hate him too much because he fought everyone, was past prime, and had issues with his retina. Sure bowe was disgusting in his ducking of lewis, but you couldnt blame it that much to boxing. Bowe was just trash that didnt even deserve to live. When you have a guy that kidnaps his wife and kids, and stabs his wife in the chest during that process, vacating a belt is the least of your problems.
After the mid 2000's scum like haymon started taking over and the ducking era began spawning things like: floyd jr, berto, broner, andre dirrell, quillin, danny jacobs, pederson, the pimp, khan, and many more. Not only did he directly create duckers, he overpayed them in the proccess, and convinced boxers that fighting bums for big bucks was the way to go. Now that this charade is over all the divas he created will have to either participate in a competitive sport, as it always should have been, or go back to flipping burgers because if you chose boxing it was probably because you didnt have much of a brain to begin with.
Mismatch hour is over and pbc is dead. You dont burn through 400mil and have your boxers competing once a year because you're business is being profitable. PBC was just a cash grab aimed to make a quick buck out of dumb billionares. Real boxing fans are happy and i cant wait until the official "PBC declares bankrupcy" thread gets stickied. I will personally contribute with some memes. I feel slightly sorry for the pathetic "boxing fans" that will miss bouts like garcia vs salka.

It also mentioned that although leonard/hagler and bowe dumping the title had occured these were mainly isolated incidents that didint become the norm until the 2000's. UNTIL THE 2000's. Meaning leonard/hagler and bowe/vacating occured BEFORE the 2000's.
I know its hard for all you *****/haymon supporters to keep up with what is written in posts but you should really step it up. I know its hard considering most of you can't read and you're all hudled up in the house of the one ***** that actually reached middle school and can read some.
However its not much to ask that in this day and age you actually learn to read. The ***** that writes these responses should at least look up the word "before". Its the 3rd word written in all caps in this post.

Waddell and reed is a publicly traded company therefore the earnings are public. The information is available.... Maybe confused about the SEC part? I'm not referring to the SEC conference but the Securities and exchange commision.

EDIT: Let me just add I would understand your skepticism if there wasn't a direct correlation with this to the lack of shows PBC has put on, drop in purses, drop in production value,etc....Last edited by Flash13; 10-18-2016, 06:49 AM.

I mean you can at least see the company is strapped for cash at this point, right?
I'm just going to add if haymon wants this to succeed. I'm not saying its completely over.... It looks like it won't, but maybe he can turn it around. He needs to stop having a financial responsibility to these fighters. The gesture is undoubtably nice and heart warming, but it's doomed to fail. You cant*** play promoter and manager at the same time youre losing either way. You either give your fighter a great deal and lose as a promoter, or give him a horrible deal and lose as a manager. Hes a world class negotiator, maybe he should just stick to that.
