i enjoyed the pbc card last night. However if you can't see the absolute failure pbc is, then there is no hope for you. They had $400m invested, what do they have to show for it? 3 lost deals (espn, nbc and spike), only 2 deals left (fox and bounce). They still have no stars as part of their stable, this is because of inactivity. Do you think exciting guys in their primes like charlo bros should be fighting 1-2 a year?
I hope pbc sticks with fox and the occasional showtime card and tries to build from there, but there is no doubt that haymon's initial plan of bringing boxing back to the masses via free tv has not been successful.
pbc and fox and fox sports are working on a tv deal! So that should be great for us boxing fans! Pbc has put many great cards on nbc, cbs, fox and showtime over the past 2 years! Not all cards can be great! Most ufc cards are garbage also!
no they will do the tripple headers with mostly mexican and japanese and foreign fighters! Its cheaper to put on lower weight classes and even cheaper if the fighters are from out of the country!
i loved last night's pbc fights!!! And got to watch it at a bar. I can't find any bars or restuarant that have hbo or even showtime. Espn does also so great move.
Hbo is dead. They don't give two shts about boxing anymore...
i even enjoyed the wilder card on fox last time it was action packed! Last night also we got 3 knockouts in primetime fox! I wonder hoe many people watchd
there's still a lot of questions around this deal that have yet to be answered. Obviously putting pacquiao on espn is going to grab views. Let's see how lomachenko and crawford do. It's premature to start the chest beating. How will they fight the top guys around their weight class if they're stuck on espn?
All for boxing being on espn. I thought al should've went exclusively with espn or fox out the gate. But let's not act like this is some clear success story. Lots of questions still
the way fox and fox sports keep promoting pbc heavily makes me think they are working on a tv deal!

the matchups were terrible. all you care about is knockouts? werent the pbc fans the ones complaining about fans only wanting to see knockouts and people not appreciating slick boxing now they are content with knockouts even if the matchups are complete sh-it.
lmao. Arum's an idiot. His whole justification and acknowledgement for branding success off premium channels is the concept of pbc on mainstream as well, to help promote a brand as he says "ufc" or boxing on fox....
Way to go bobdilla. Seems like you and haymon are hitting it off well now!
snakey ***s like arum bash blacks and their accomplishments! These these same greedy snakes like arum copy the same blueprint and call it the best thing since slice bread! This is the *** snake blueprint and always will be!
i guess jojo diaz will be making the step up soon and he's potentially a popular fighter with the skills to back it up. But yeah hbo's line-up is looking pretty poor right now, especially when ward, canelo and ggg only seem to fight on ppv these days
jo jo diaz will lose as soon as he stops fighting total bums!
smart move by arum. Hbo wasn't given as many dates or money as he wanted and espn seems to be fully invested in boxing with golden boy promotions and top rank.
Hopefully he does business with other promotional companies and doesn't shut business down with hbo like how oscar did with showtime.
oscar better let linares go to showtime so he can fight mikey in 2018!
