HBO cannot compete... budget for 2017 looking at $10 million

[LADIV]

Over 5 million watched THURMAN vs GARCIA. You're an idiot.

yes on free tv...

before anything, where is your source? otherwise, this thread means nothing

PBC is broke. I'm not even sure if the massive inactivity going on will be solved this year. Espinoza is making it clear they can't do Thurman/Garcia types at a steady rate. He's saying they are hard to make. Meaning, they're too expensive.

Without a source this is a silly thread. At least put in the effort to bring up the budget for all cards so far done & speculative info about the budget for future cards we know about.

But I got little doubt HBO Boxing will have a similar or smaller budget than last year cuz thats been happening since the early 00's. This is no HBO business merger thing or whatever the spin is. This is whats been going on for nearly two decade.

Pretty simple... 3-4 cards on HBO through June. 2 on PPV.

None of the regular HBO cards are paying over $1M.

Done.

Please die out HBO and take that f@ggot Jim Lampley with you.

If PBC is broke you coulda fooled literally everyone as the schedule is full and the tourney is being put in motion as we speak lol.

On the other hand... how is HBO doing?

LOL

Is PBC now solely dependent on CBS/Showtime money? When is PBC's next big fight without Showtime's financial support?

Look at Bounce.

Look at FOX & FOX sports 1.

Look at ESPN.

Look at Spike.

Look at NBC & NBC Sports.

Look at all the dates Haymon has on Showtime and CBS.

Now what is HBO putting on? Nada lol

[MasterPlan]

How can you blame them when rating s are low. No one wants to watch a bunch of ***** fights. The divas of modern era are a joke

You need money to put on good fights.
