    Basically what he said is that PBC is a failure and instead of helping Showtime it hurt them.

    Haymon, espinoza are top tier ******s at building their boxing brands. I cant believe how much money they have burnt up over the years for terrible ratings, and building no stars.

          If he wasn't fired before, it's hard to see him getting fired now. Makes me think he has some dirt on Showtime or some **** cause my god, how does he still have a job?

            Jan. 28: Carl Frampton (23-0, 14 KOs) vs. Leo Santa Cruz (32-1-1, 18 KOs)

            Feb. 11: Adrien Broner (32-2, 24 KOs) vs. Adrian Granados (18-4-2, 12 KOs)
            March 4: Danny Garcia (32-0, 18 KOs) vs. Keith Thurman (27-0, 22 KOs)
            This right here....... No matter if people are watching or not, we certainly are and the fights are quality...

            HBO is slacking, worrying so much about building their names against no hopers instead of putting on competitive fights.... Not that there haven't been any but showtime seems to be leading the way heading into 2017

                    Truth is that a lot of executives at Showtime and hbo really don't have a clue what goes on in the boxing departments. They don't really understand the business and just believe whatever their told.

                    I think hbo eventually started paying attention when they gave Haymon the boot, and stopped letting promoters gain leverage over them. They also clearly made a decision to build their brand around non-black fighters.

                    As for Showtime I think they are starting to pay attention too but probably not as much. All of a sudden Haymon started putting his big names back on Showtime when their ratings plummeted, but it's too late.

                      They may not pay attention (Idk for certain) but come on, they have to have some type of clue about wtf is going on. There's just no way.
