[Come∂ian]

You're so right...Haymon putting on so many mismatches:

• Jesus Cuellar (#6 ESPN, #7 Ring Magazine) vs. Abner Mares (#5 ESPN, #5 Ring)
• Jermall Charlo (#3 ESPN, #3 Ring) vs. Julian Williams (#6 ESPN, #8 Ring)
• James DeGale (IBF champ, #1 ESPN, #1 Ring) vs. Badou Jack (WBC champ, #2 ESPN, #2 Ring)
• Carl Frampton (WBA champ, #1 ESPN, #2 Ring) vs. Leo Santa Cruz (#2 ESPN, #2 Ring)
• Dejan Zlaticanin (WBC champ,#3 ESPN, #1 Ring) vs. Mikey Garcia (#10 ESPN)
• Adrien Broner (#3 ESPN, #3 Ring) vs. Adrian Granados (#6 Ring)
• Keith Thurman (WBA champ, #1 ESPN, #2 Ring) vs. Danny Garcia (WBA Champ, #2 ESPN, #6 Ring)

BUT I THOUGHT JIM "WOMAN BEATER" LAMPLEY, DAN "FAT MAN" RAFAEL AND STEVE KIM"CHi" SAID PBC WAS DEAD???? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHA!!!!

Kind of is... All the "PBC" fights that were recently announced are NOT PBC, they are on showtime championship boxing. PBC was supposed to be the return to network tv. All that has been announced is a schedule, not a lineup of fights.
Fox has a fight in January, let's see haymon push hard on that Jacobs v golovkin purse bid and put it on fox. That would prove PBC is alive.

Too bad these are all showtime championship boxing...

Let's see what is announced for PBC fights on fox, ESPN, NBC, spike etc. that is what PBC is, network tv.
Haymon should go out and win the golovkin v jacobs purse bid and put it on the January fox show, that would be a step in the right direction.

So which Haymon fighter is pumped up to fight him? I don't mean a low-rated or semi-retired Haymon fighter. Haven't heard a PBC fighter expressing interest in fighting Crawford.

[The Gambler1981]

I could stand to see Crawford fight Rances Barthelemy.

Make up your mind.

You went from saying Haymon does so many mismatches to saying Haymon does good fights but he needs to put them on free TV.

Only a moron would put Golovkin-Jacobs on free TV, and Haymon isn't a moron.

Golovkin-Jacobs could cost $10-15 million, and you want him to take it to Fox, where he has to pay for the fight and pay the network and pay for the undercard...or in other words, pay out $20 million dollars and get back a few hundred thousand in advertising????

And that would prove PBC is alive? More like that would provide PBC is brain dead.

Bob Arum is the master of the bait-and-switch technique. The way it works is Arum will tell the public that he is trying to make a fight between his fighter and King Kong. In the end, his fighter will end up fighting Minnie Mouse. Then, Arum will tell fans that he will pit his fighter against King Kong after the Minnie Mouse fight. After the Minnie Mouse fight, he pits his fighter against Mickey Mouse. Repeat! Repeat! Repeat!

Arum has used it for the last 10 years to turn Manny Pacquaio a star. Now, he is using it with Crawford and Lomachenko.

Only a moron would think that Golovkin and Jacobs will make $10-15 million off their fight or that more than 100,000 people will actually pay to see the fight.
