I believe UFC and Dana White will buy out PBC from Haymon and create own belt

[OnePunch]

why would anyone "buy" PBC? It has no tangible assets, and has no contracts with any of the fighters. I doubt "PBC" as an entity even has library rights to the fights they produced. Everything, even the Lear and the Gulfstream, are owned by Haymon Sports. PBC doesnt even own the spaceship light grid anymore.

There is nothing to "buy"........

well aside from the fact that no one really knows how the pbc works. the general point of the thread is to say that Zuffas way into becoming a boxing powerhouse is through Haymon in some way or form.

but both are control freaks and would want the upperhand on each other

I could see some sort of partnership working between Haymon and White. Sure, both are alphas, which can be tough, but in alot of ways they are polar opposites. Haymon is more about results, and less about optics. If he can get what he wants, he doesnt care about the PR. White on the other hand seems to be more concerned about public perception of him. I suspect he would accept less than he wants if the public perception was spun to make it seem like he got more lol

Great point but you have to know that Dana white is just the face not the brains or the owner. Endeavor/Lawrence epstein has the final say not dana white.

true, but they didnt keep him on just for his good looks. They obviously value his input in some capacity......

very true Dana white does bring extremely valuable insight into how the business works and dealing with the fighters. all of which are things he could bring with him to boxing

IF this was going to happen I'd assume whatever company the assets are in would be the company purchased. And come on do you really think there are no fighters signed with PBC/Haymon & its all just handshake deals?

Having access to the roster alone, unless Hearn nabs some of the better guys, should be up there although I wouldn't dare to speculate as this isn't something I've seen enough to comment on as it doesn't happen really. I know Haymon had to pay around $14M to cover the 18 guys he took from GBP during there whole thing. How much would renting out 200 fighters cost? F#ck if I know, but I'm sure they could come up with a figure or a partnership that would work if they wanted to work together.

All the fighters are signed to Haymon Sports in a management / advisory capacity. There is not a single fighter signed to PBC.

LOL come on man. No sh^t.

Isn't PBC itself under Haymon Sports owned by Haymon?

If the UFC is doing business with Haymon it'd be Haymon Sports, the entity with all the Haymon PBC products in it & not PBC which I believe is merely a name isn't it? Whats PBC own? That f#cking Hans song?
