Are promoters freezing out PBC?

[original zero]

i said that they don't pay pbc.

You're lying. Here are your exact words: "FS1 has never paid for boxing."

If you're willing to lie about something so simple and you're willing to continue to lie even after being busted, what else are you lying about?

send me the link that bounce and fs1 pay pbc. I will wait.

I don't have to prove a negative. You're claiming Bounce is a time buy. Prove it. I know that it's not. You have no idea if it is. There's no signed agreement between PBC & Bounce, so good luck proving what the private arrangement is.

And for CBS they are only showing an occasional big fight that showtime pays for. Your argument is weak. TNT etc pay for fights too since they are shown on HBO using your logic

TNT is not the parent company of HBO. CBS is the parent company of Showtime. When CBS pays to have boxing on CBS, it doesn't matter to Haymon whether CBS pays directly or if CBS increases Showtime's budget so they can pay Haymon. Either way, Haymon was not being paid for live prime time shows on CBS until PBC came along.

NFL, MLB etc are one league. boxing has four leagues.

Then we need to fix that. How about tennis? All the players are really independent contractors. But at least the top players all compete in the main tournaments (Us open, Wimbledon, etc). 128 men enter. After 1 round there's 64 left, then 32, etc.. They keep playing til theres only 1 left. Also, correct me if Im wrong, but I think MLB is 2 leagues (NL, & AL)?

Lol then people wonder why boxing is dying in the states. Because the easiest things are difficult and nobody wants to hear about 4-5 different champions and all this network ****. Sad thing is i doubt we see a change soon

Well, I see a lot of belts getting unified soon, so thats a good thing. I think DW will Fight Parker, then AJ. So we will have 1 HW champ, so there's at least that.

True, same thing with the WW division. Maybe Thurman fights the winner of Spence-Brook and then maybe Manny fights a top WW one day

Ain't this the f#cking truth.

The sooner more guys involved in the sport realize this or some new entity comes in & just rekt's sh^t proving this theory the better off & more popular boxing will be be.

Right on brother!

I hope so. We'll get it together. Just takes Time. Canelo-GGG will go far in settling that division too. Especially if the Winner goes and gets BJS's belt.

wrong again. you are so biased and making things up. Show a link proving they are paying. It is bs. Obviously Showtime is paying and Spike was paying but Bounce, FS1 Fox have always been time shares and CBS isn't paying. That is Showtime paying and placing them on CBS. You need to get your head out of the sand.

Hi, forgive the newbie question, man, but can u explain please what that means? What is "Time share"? And why does this only apply to some networks? Im trying to Learn how all this works....

NL & AL merged to create MLB just as NFL & AFL merged and NBA & ABA merged.

I agree boxing would benefit from a unified league, which is what Al Haymon is attempting to pull off. But when someone actually tries to create a better future for the sport, you see how many come out of the woodwork to root against him.
