[soul_survivor]

Erm...at least he's being honest I guess but erm you know, he could've made the biggest fight of the year a reality lol

Status Quo and traditional industry might think so, but negativity with Hauser and Dan Rafel articles against PBC was just some girly sht...

But then there were Porter vs Thurman ratings doe

ya ill never get why these writers and other promoters want pbc to fail when if they succeed it helps everybody. its crap mentality at its best/worst

2016, 2015, 2014 and I can keep going. Every fighter is looking for a prime time money fights instead of giving out great matches leading up to a real, true mega fight.

2016 is the year Canelo vacated WBC belt, put on some fishnets and red pumps on and became a PUTA, thanks Cokehead.

This coming from the same guy who is taking his time in making the fight everyone wants to see

Truth is, if PBC fails, boxing fails! Luckily for us, the PBC is looking very strong from December 2016 to March 2017! If the casuals are not attracted to LSC vs. Frampton and Thurman vs. Garcia, then they'll probably never be attracted to the sport again! Oscar should keep the 8 figure payday offer to GGG, but move the fight to Cinco de Mayo 2017! That would give the sport a big boost!

Alvarez vs GGG won't happen in 2017. Abel already insinuated GBP's plans for 2017.

Maybe we start with a 158 fight.
Next is the Saunders belt.
Sept. Alvarez defends his first WBO 160...

2018 seems more realistic. With K2s plans, as many can see, they're getting very frustrated with upcoming opposition. they need Alvarez propaganda to stir away attention from their 2017 opposition.

And you making two of dumbest fights of the year and putting them on ppv is by far biggest reason it was a dud

[Daddy T]

And Oscar bears a huge part of the responsibility. If he didn't have Canelo vacate and duck GGG we could of had Canelo v GGG last month instead of one of the worst PPVs for the supposed top star in boxing in history.
