FOX and PBC finalize deal. Fifty million a year slated for boxing on FOX and FS1

[MasterPlan]

I think today.

A press release from PBC or announcing fights?

[Scipio2009]

I noticed something for both the Fox and Showtime deals.
I think each will have a seperate PPV.

This might be like the WWE Brand spilt (do they still do that, lol.)

Wilder on Showtime
Spence on Fox

Hopefully they don't seperate the Charlo's like they did the Dudley Boys lol.

FOX/FS1 doing PPVs doesn't make any sense, largely because the aims are different.

SHOPPV will be exclusively used for the fights that need it (Wilder-Joshua, fighters earning beyond what available on Showtime/CBS), CBS will be utilized for fights that are borderline PPV (Spence vs Garcia-Porter winner, Spence-Thurman, etc), and then you're going to have Showtime Championship Boxing and PBC on FOX basically targeting the same types of fights (all the PBC on NBC/ESPN/CBS/FOX/SpikeTV cards from the initial deal will now be under one channel).

Showtime will get their fill first (whether by season or 6 months at a time), and then FOX will get their pick of events. Showtime/CBS isn't running events every Saturday, but between FOX and Showtime/CBS, we should be seeing fights at least 30-35 times a year between the two (to which you can then add the FS1 and ShoBox cards).

[Scipio2009]

You have to factor in the ShoBox cards are not PBC unless that has already happened.

Even if you factor ShoBox into the 30 Showtime/CBS cards, you're still talking about maybe 10 ShoBox cards and 20 (SHOPPV/CBS/Showtime Championship Boxing/SHO International) cards [PPVs will have the re-air, though it's unclear if Showtime will simply re-air the main event with a new live event or simply air the full PPV, due to the quality of the fights that Showtime gets on each show].

I think you got your answer

[Scipio2009]

I don't think any more shows will be on bounce. Also I think its a high possibility at least 1 or 2 shows end up on cbs. also I think haymon will start recruiting more fighters now really big deal

BounceTV has allegedly been paying for their shows for a while now, 4 shows a year seems to be all they were looking at, and I believe Haymon has some of his own money tied up with them, too.

You may be correct, but I'd wait on confirmation

From my understanding it wouldn't make since to put shows on bounce unless they were lower tier shows just to keep guys busy or safely develop someone. FOX or SHO probably wouldn't like having a third party that's basically owned by haymon involved I would assume

[Mammoth]

175 hours of PBC fights a year

[lanker rom]

60+ million according to mike coppinger and kevin iole says its 50 million which is it

[lanker rom]

that ten million matters!!! also does the money go towards fights or does it go towards programming shows

[N/A]

60+ million according to mike coppinger and kevin iole says its 50 million which is it

iole said "reported 50 million" because the original report said "over 50 million." that report now says over 60 million.
