'at least 20 pbc fighters at the elite of the sport' really????????????? who the hell wrote that article was it haymon himself? 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.

Wilder and Spence are about to headline ppvs

But it’s Haymon and PBC who once again lead the way.


not sure how it can say this after just telling us how dazn has far more money and hbo has the biggest stars. PBC LEADING THE WAY DOE! based on what?

PBC and Fox have finalized a long-term deal for fights to appear on both Fox and FS1 with an annual boxing budget that eclipses $50 million, multiple sources told The Ring. The deal, which will be announced Tuesday, will kick off in December; the agreement calls for 10 championship-level fights on Fox, with at least another 12 shows on FS1. That’s to be added to Showtime’s existing budget, estimated at over $50 million.

Meanwhile, Eddie Hearn, who runs U.K.-based promotional company Matchroom and recently announced a wide-sweeping deal with online streaming service DAZN, is estimated to have an annual budget of $125 million.

“Between Showtime and Fox, PBC will have a bigger pool of budget money than any other promoter in boxing, including Eddie Hearn with DAZN,” an industry source who was not authorized to speak publicly told The Ring

.... and '20 top flight telecasts' a year i almost spat out my drink. we get about 5 'top flight' ones a year if that, the rest are a 'top flight' fighter beating up an overmatched opponent, that doesnt make it a 'top flight telecast'

This is what they call letting the source write the story. Mike Coppinger wrote the story but since the source gave him the exclusive he writes it more like a press release as a favor to the source for giving him the breaking news.

It never stated DAZN has far more money. In fact, there was a quote in the article that stated PBC will have more money with SHO+FOX than any other promoter/network.

So the article says fox and showtime got a budget of 50 mill each but then states....
“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.

Elite of the sport I'm guessing includes guys like Wilder, LSC, etc. So elite in their weight classes. In terms of just elite by definition, the list would be just for P4P fighters.

The article said that they'll have AT LEAST 50 million a year.

Now that the deal has been announced. I wonder how many dates they have with SHO and FOX. Also will they try to recruit others like Crawford, GGG, Loma, ETC. Haymon is a manager so its not poaching?

well to me it sounds like guesswork that they are gonna have more than 125 mill, 'at least 50' could mean anything it doesnt mean theyve got at least 60
