    The article said that they'll have AT LEAST 50 million a year.
    That's just from showtime and they said a little more than that

      I'll be accepting apologies from everyone who said I was crazy all these years I was saying PBC would have no problem getting 50 million and would likely get 100.

      Between FOX and SHO, PBC now has over 100 million a year guaranteed. The same PBC most of you said was dead.

      The trolls always lose in the end.

          No, guys like Crawford and Lomachenko are signed to Top Rank. They won't be fighting on a PBC show unless there is some sort of trade off or there is a purse bid.

            Hope they only put truly good cards and big fights on FOX, don't need general public seeing crap fights. Use FS1 to build prospects and feature good gatekeeper wars like the card they have coming up

From where ive been standing PBC has been a flop, it was meant to be the UFC of boxing, a seperate entity distinguishable from the rest of boxing. It hasnt achieved that at all. In fact its not built a single superstar, not one in all the years its been running.
              Spence was built by PBC..as was Garcia,Thurman and Wilder..hate all you want but they are moving forward

                Was that you in a alt account that said they worked for a law firm and PBC and Fox were negotiating a deal? That topic was written over a year ago.

                  Now boxing has to figure out how to consistently bring in great ratings and create stars or the networks will dump the product as soon as their contracts expire

                    I mean they were already getting around $50 million from SHO. Maybe the folks you were debating meant $100 million from FOX or other networks?

                      “Between Showtime and Fox, PBC will have a bigger pool of budget money than any other promoter in boxing, including Eddie Hearn with DAZN" unless my maths is wrong its around 25 million less than DAZN lol.
                      DAZN deal averages 125 if they go the full 8 years, but only 2 years are guaranteed and the early years pay much less than the later years.

                      FOX pays over 50 every year and SHO pays over 50 every year. Between the two, PBC will have a larger budget than DAZN. If Hearn can get the option years picked up by DAZN, he may eventually have a larger budget, but not anytime soon.
