Comments Thread For: Premier Boxing Champions Reveals Season 3 Schedule

[richardt]

What reasons are these?

If you have to ask, you dont have a clue. I'll make it simple. A true boxing fan likes to sit in front of his TV and watch solid match ups and exciting fights. This has happened many times through PBC. If someone does nothing but complain about PBC, does that mean they A) dont like exciting fights which in fact have been on and why would they NOT like exciting fights? or B) is there some ulterior motive for always complaining about PBC? I can think of a number of ulterior motives that dont have to be spelled out for someone to blatantly realize they exist.

some people hate haymon for very obvious reasons and let that get in the way of enjoying boxing. I have seen many exciting fights that would not have been seen had it not been for some solid matchups on pbc! I've seen unbeaten prospects going at it, once beaten champs against undefeated challengers, top contenders who could have avoided each other and gotten a title shot deciding to wage a war against each other. I can name a long list of very solid matchups. It takes a special kind of ****** or bias to not appreciate some of the great matchups that have been made through pbc.

exactlyyy! How dare haymon give us thurman vs porter for free on primetime national tv hahaha

how dare haymon give us leo vs frampton for only $6 on showtime! If haymon was great he would rip us off like hbo does with mismatch ppv's for $60!!!

How dare haymon give us thurman vs danny for free in 2017!!! If haymon loved us fan boys he would charge us $60 on ppv like manny vs vargas hahahahahahahaha

golden girl and top prank are great because they rip us fans off every year with mismatch ppv's like canelo vs angulo, canelo vs khan and manny vs algieri and manny vs vargas......

i didnt really single out pbc as the only source of ****. I just named pbc because its a thread about the pbc schedule, calm down.

2 awesome fights for the whole year! Wow, so 1 good fight for every 6 months.
You are on crack if you are blind to criticism about pbc.
A really bad second half of the year. Look at the past schedule on the pbc homepage.

http://www.premierboxingchampions.com/past-boxing-fights

now name me more than a handful intriguing matchups?
Couple this with the inactivity of most of the more popular fighter and the inability to match the 154 pounder against each other, even though pbc has the whole division and you have a pretty **** year for pbc.

But the new schedule: 2 unification fights: Thurman vs garcia, degale vs jack, top guys against each other: Charlo vs williams, zlatinacin vs garcia, frampton vs santa cruz ii and very fun matchups in broner vs granados and cuellar vs mares are a really big step in the right direction.

So chill out and dont be so offended if someome criticize pbc lol

im still waiting for you to name a promoter who has given us better fights the last 2 years than pbc??? Quality and quantity wise???? Ill wait bitter man

smh at this thread, and people wonder why the sports a joke at the moment. Got you lot doing cartwheels cause weve been given the news that we can see another year of mismatches on tv. what great news that is for us all.

... Gennady Golovkin is the photo in your avatar, and you've got something to say about mismatches?

25 shows on FS1 (PBC has generally used those dates to feature prospect vs prospect or "prospect stepping up in class" fights), a dozen shows on ESPN (likely featuring "prospects on the cusp of title opportunity"/ crossroads type fights), a dozen shows on SpikeTV, quarterly "prospect" shows on BounceTV, and 6 terrestrial TV primetime dates (likely featuring the name fighters under the banner).

50 fight cards (6 of which in primetime and on a terrestrial TV), 20 of which on really good stages, and that's before counting the dates that Showtime ends up calling for (their current schedule, without any mention of ShoBox, is only tentatively marked out till March 2017).

Not every show is likely to be a barnburner, but to act as if the shows have been simply mismatches is ridiculous.

exactlyyyy! How dare haymon give us so much free boxing every year hahahahah!

If haymon was great according to these fan boys he would rip us off twice a year with horrible mismatch ppvs!!!

Maybe haymon should rip us off like canelo vs khan or canelo vs smith or manny vs algieri or manny vs vargas on ppv.... Maybe then hbold and their fan boys will love haymon!!!

[R_Walken]

yeah round of applause for haymon, finishing the year off strong with garcia v vargas! Wilder v arreola was a good one, spence v bundu too, or the blockbuster that was broner v theophane. And so what if they are free, i still feel like ive been ripped off when i tune in for that ****

Your such a clown, I bet you were ******* off to the Gennady/Wade fight but you complain about mismatches

This may come as news to you but Gennady doesn't love you,he doesn't know you exsist, There's no need to be Kevin Costner up in here taking e-bullets defending his honour while putting down anything that isn't associated with him

exactly! How dare al haymon give fans so much free boxing! He should rip us off with mismatch ppvs like canelo vs smith and canelo vs khan or manny vs vargas hahahaha! If haymon loved the fans like hbo and golden girl and top prank do he would rip us off every year with at least 2 mismatch ppv!!!! I hate haymon

Yeah it's funny reading people that have something negative to say over 50-60 extra shows on TV. 6-8 which are prime time on the big 4 and another 15-20 on espn and Spike.

Plus another 25 on FS1

Im so pissed off right now , f.ucking Haymon giving me more access to the sport I follow. Total f.agot

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

Yet another hating ass bi.tch.

Make sure not to watch.
Don't give Al your ratings.

Oh trust me, I ain't tuning in to no Champion vs TBA bull****. That much is guaranteed.

[SchoolTheseCats]

It's comical seeing the ggg and HBO fan boys complaining of mismatches.....
