    There never was a complaint, just an observation.


    Oddly enough, you refuse to answer the questions.

      Once the FOX deal gets done for next year, you will get free boxing.

      And there were plenty of complaints with some moron journalist always mocking the freeeeeeeeeeee with his articles and tweets. The argument first was quality>free, but now the question is why isn't the PBC free? Well, part of PBC will be free. More importantly, as long as they continue to deliver high level cards, that's all that should matter.

        I was hoping they were going to go with FOX over Showtime.

          Why? It made no sense to stop the SHO relationship. Even better, they will be on both networks opening up more dates that will keep the top guys more active.

            Last year pbc boxing was mainly on fox even more so than showtime and this year its basically only on showtime. Maybe haymon was testing out fox last year and this year hes testing out showtime.

              I think they can still do a deal with Fox.

              Fox has a college football deal and baseball deal so it will be hard to put fights on Sat nights from April through January.

                Was mainly on FOX? Not true. PBC has been mainly been on SHO the last few years, at least the top cards.

                  Do you have any info in what's going on with SHOWTIME's PPV of Wilder v Fury. Seems to have gone quiet

                    Things usually go quiet when things are going well. Would make sense to wait until Porter/Garcia fight week for the official announcement so all of the media is already in town.

                      I don't know any boxing fans, so no, I don't know any boxing fans without tv or internet.
