    Is PBC on free tv over?

    Im seeing every top pbc fighter is fighting on showtime this year. Is pbc not doing any free networks fights anymore?

      There is a fight on Fox next month. They will have one per quarter.
      CBS may have one. The NBC deal is over. Hopefully more CBS fights doe.

        The whole PBC model is becoming less relevant year after year. Haymon is now resorting back to what worked originally by putting his top fights on showtime.

          They still do free fights on FOX, CBS and Bounce. Usually 4 FOX, 1 CBS and 2-3 Bounce.

            I forgot about Bounce. I think they have one every quarter as well.

                They have the FS1 and Fox Deals and occasionally Bounce TV which are usually decent fights but their top fights are on Showtime as they pay for those fights

                  when is the last time Bounce even aired a fight? It's been months lol It's almost Feb and PBC just released their schedule that extends all the way to June and all but 1 fight is on Showtime. And they only have a few more dates owed to them on the FOX deal before the time buy expires. But look at the last few fights they have sent to FOX the Santa Cruz and Mares tomato can tuneup that Showtime publicly trashed said wasn't worthy to pay for and passed on and now a gate keeper fighter with Victor Ortiz and Alexander. They know once the deal is over FOX is not paying for a TV deal which is why they giving garbage fights just like they did at the end of NBC, ESPN, Spike time buy deals because none of those networks were interested in paying. PBC is just Showtime now.
