    I'm sure sooner or later we will get this big investigated article from Thomas Hauser on Ring about how Haymon got these 2 deals with Showtime and Fox. I'm sure he will bring up some type of collusion from Haymon about the deals and how he's blocking GB from having their fighters fighting on those networks.

            Big fights will be on SHO (at least 12) and FOX (10) and lower level will be on FS1 (12) and BounceTV(4.)
            Agreed Fox wouldn't pay them for what they were putting on fox under the time buy deal. Fox will get good fights on the 10 shows on the network and so will showtime. The PPV's obviously have to be big fights. I'm sure Fox has threshold numbers in the PPV agreement. This is a much better deal than anticipated, its 22 shows and cross promotion and shoulder programming. Good for the fighters for sure. We will see Deontay on the WWE now? Can't wait.

              Absolutely which is why shooting all there bullets early made no sense. Lawsuits, Hauser articles trying to discredit. Now what?

                  Baby Miller, Jessie Vargas, Danny Jacobs, Amir Khan and Tevin Farmer should of had some patience and waited, now they are stuck fighting bums and on an App that’s going to fade soon. Loyalty is always key

                    I hate to praise myself here but this deal wasn't that unexpected lol when I created my profile here, I did it with the purpose of breaking down the T.V. numbers for PBC. I told posters here that he'd get a deal in the $100 million/year range.

                    I was told I was crazy. That was a few years ago. The numbers told the story the whole time, but for some reason boxing fans are generally opposed to critical thinking lol People just needed to be patient. Nothing was going to happen until the UFC property found it's home.

                      I feel bad for Bud Crawford because he will never get the big fights, he’ll be stuck on ESPN fighting Top Rank bums
