Just look at the PBC dates last year and compare to the dates the year before and when they debuted. Dates are significantly down, numerous networks have outright ended their relationship with PBC, and the purses have been falling. It's foolish to think their wouldn't be an exodus of fighters.
I assume I can mark you down in the opposing opinion on that one. It's definitely looking like the PBC is becoming less of a thing with all these guys going to non-PBC promoters.
I'm not fully sure what's going on as I could see them regrouping a lil and/or shedding some extra weight, but logically I'm having a hard time seeing much of a future for the PBC along their original road. Whatever the case if one of those 5 or so key guys that are left sign with a promoter it'll for sure close the door on PBC getting a national TV deal anytime soon (unless it's some CBS Sports or FS1 deal for short money).Comment

Actually he isnt signed with Haymon it was reported his contract came to an end. Good move because Pbc failed to get a deal with a network and they are just about over with the time buys. They dont have enough dates its basically just Showtime and a handful of Fs1 cards which are liely coming to an end. Top Rank on Espn has gotten huge ratings abd seem like the best place to go for any fighter but especially at lightweight and the lower weights in general they have no shortage of talent. I expect many more Haymon fighters to sign with Top RankComment

I bet Mikey Garcia must be mad he left Top Rank and wasted almost 3 years without a fight just for Top Rank to get a long term deal with Espn haha he probably saw the writing on the wall that eventually hed have to face Loma and or Crawford and he booked. Its a shame because they were grooming him to face Pacquiao eventually. All he had to do was fight Gamboa and now hes fighting guys like Lipinets all these years later. His career went backwards just like Chavez Jr. And Jessie Vargas is going backwards and fought Aaron Herrera and now is being served up to Thurman for a tune up. Meanwhile Top Rank has the best match makers in boxing and they could be fighting in front of a much bigger audience on EspnComment

Herring is getting guaranteed 3 fights a year. Selby gets three fights this year. Frampton at least 2. they couldn't get that from Haymon.
If anything this is a blessing in disguise for the guys that stay at pbc. once that roster gets cut in half the guys that stick around will have opportunities to fight more than once a yearComment

Scorpio is saying he thinks PBC is gonna get a FOX deal once the UFC jumps ship or something like that.
