I'm glad that boxing is headed towards being mainstream again but the influx of casuals is gonna be a pain

good for the sport.

HBO has only Canelo & GGG left. They may drop boxing soon.

[AnimalisticMeth]

HBO is ****ed to be honest. If GGG beats canelo to apulo they have no cash cow. Cotto retires at the end of the year and GBP has no one with a big future

[chepboxingking]

I don't get it. What's different from the deal they signed with ESPN before the pacquiao fight, and this deal?

[Thetruthiserrol]

Great deal! More fighters will definitely be signing to Top Rank very soon.
