Comments Thread For: ESPN's Loma-Rigo Drew 1.73M Viewers; No. 2 on Cable Since 2012

Max Kellerman is on suicide watch ever since HBO burned themselves by turning their back on Manny and Arum last year. He can't sit ringside at Crawford or Loma fights now and his idol Ward is retired. LOL.

No worries, he's too busy cumming in his pants everyday on first take talking about the greatness of Aaron Rodgers.

I thought there wasn't enough promotion?

[Bronx2245]

damn, most of these were on showtimes funding and the *****y fights were al haymons trash for all to see, i cant wait to see adonis stevenson vs ricardo mayorga next on pbc, lol

Too bad for you, that it will be Adonis Stevenson vs. Badou Jack or Elieder Alvarez! Either one is better than Kovalev vs. Shabranskky! So when Haymon brings the fights to Showtime, the credit is Showtime's? That's how that works? Haymon took Showtime to the highest it's ever been, and who brought boxing back to regular cable? Was it Haymon or Arum? How did GBP do on regular cable? How good has GBP been without Haymon fighters? HATER!

CEO gets fired by his Board because he says, "why strive for more better results in the 4th quarter, let's just take a break for possibly showing better metrics to our shareholders..they'll understand their money will be fine.."

Not only did Haymon use over half a billion of other peoples money to get Pbc off the ground, but he also bought all these time buys accross many different networks and put on a bunch of mismatches. Now theyre out of money with no network deal. Alls Arum had to do to get his deal was put Pacquiao on Espn one time. Arum runs boxing, Haymon doesnt know ish about promoting. Unless Pbc fighters are ok with fighting once a year due to not having enough dates on Showtime I expect a large amount of them to either sign with a promoter or Haymon will have to let them fight on Espn and Hbo. Plenty of cannon fodder in his stable for Crawford at 147 on Espn. Also Pacquiao needs opponents

Look at the ratings of Pbc on Showtime theyre down in the dumps right now. Haymon bought time buys on network t.v. and cable t.v. and blew the opportunity by putting on mismatches and he cant get a network deal which was the entire goal, so he actually did boxing a disservice while Arum didnt do a single time buy and made a groundbreaking deal with Espn after putting on Pacquiao Horn. Why is it so hard for you fanboys to admot that Pbc was an utter failure and Top Rank continues to lead the way? More Pbc fighters will be fighting on Top Rank cards very soon I suspect, unless Haymon just keeps them fighting once a year if at all

While I'm really happy that it it did relatively well, and that Loma is getting well-received by the public, I'm kinda disappointed in boxing. For 2 P4P guys to get far less than old Pac vs an unknown is just kinda *meh*.

I feel like boxing is GREAT for hardcores right now and I hope the casuals will see that and embrace boxing.

I'm glad it did well too. But with Manny, he is a cultural icon who was one of the best of his era. His star power was already gained so the ratings he got shouldn't be too much of a surprise.

With Lomachenko, he is still on the come up. Getting those numbers for his current star power is pretty impressive. But we'll have to see if that carries over to his next fight to really get a handle on his casual popularity.
