PBC is getting a lot of flack for this?

Who Cares! Same people who bash PBC was asking for Links for the Press Conference earlier today
they will complain but THEY WILL WATCH 
Same with DAZN, Top Rank...Boxing Fans will Support IT ALL but it is not the boxing fans that they need, it is the GROWTH in CASUAL FANS they need and being on Network TV for sure can help with that because a Casual is not going to Download a APP for a sport they Casually Watch BUT they might stick around for a Loma and Crawford on ESPN while waiting for Sportscenter or stick around for PBC on Fox waiting for their Local Prime Time News Coverage to come on
The Powers that Be in boxing are not listening to the Internet Boxing Fans and they shouldn't because honestly...Most Of Us Don't Know Sh#t!
How can we tell promoters how to create bigger boxing stars when none of us ever created one, why the hell should they listen to us? 
Respect to Fox for investing into boxing and they seem like they're going all out for the sport like they do for NFL Football which is GREAT!Last edited by sicko; 11-13-2018, 09:39 PM.Comment

Dazn has the WBSS and I just watched Usyk vs Bellew and Andrade was facing Saunders till he popped dirty.
Stop trying to justify the S H I T PBC fights by trying to put down other promoters fights.
And canelo will be fighting 11 times on that app while you're paying PPV prices for any fight that looks competitive for the next 5 months lol.
Pbc is trash, they got you boys brainwashed.Comment

How is Usyk vs Bellew not a miss match? Wbss used to be free and now you're paying 10 a month for itDazn has the WBSS and I just watched Usyk vs Bellew and Andrade was facing Saunders till he popped dirty.

Just be honest DAZN didn't have fights better than PBC on FS1 never mind showtime fightsComment

I wholeheartedly agree. Unfortunately you will never be able to please some boxing fans no matter what you do. Could some of the match ups been better? Sure of course, they could have been better. However, some of the biggest names in boxing are fighting on free network television. That should be in and of itself enough to get excited about. The fights are on free TV. At least one doesn't have to dole out hundreds of dollars per year just to watch some of their favorite fighters through some subscription based cable television or internet service.FOX is on board, rolling out the red carpet trying to push boxing back into the mainstream on regular television. Yet, PBC seems to be getting blasted for what they're trying to accomplished.
Obviously from the presser today FOX is really all into it. If marketed right, this will work.
Y'all better support this or by 2025 boxing will be gone from the public's eye all together.
If this fails it will be because of the boxing media and boxing fans pushing people away.
A lot are dogging these match ups. Did y'all think we were gonna see Thurman-Spence or something. None of the match ups are bad other than Santa Cruz-Flores.
But we have to see what Top Rank, Golden Boy and Matchroom bring to the table.Comment

People keep telling me when this happens or that happens PBC will put on the big fights. Well we are close to 4 years into this PBC project & this first Fox schedule rollout was supposed to be something crazy good cuz its on Fox's dime now vs a time buy. I'm still not seeing it doe. Some good fights on these cards don't get me wrong, but PBC could make big fights every other month with their roster without blowing out their stable.Comment

In 2018, we've seen:
Benavidez-Gavril II
Wilder-Ortiz
Dirrell-Uzcategui II
Lara-Hurd
DeGale-Truax
Broner-Vargas
Russell-Diaz
Mares-Santa Cruz II
Charlo-Trout
Garcia-Easter
Garcia-Porter
Wilder-Fury on deck
In 2017, we had:
Jack-DeGale
Davis-Pedraza
Frampton-Santa Cruz
Vasquez-Collazo
Broner-Granados
Warren-Zhakinayov
Hurd-Harrison
Berto-Porter
Spence-Brook
Broner-Garcia
Charlo-Lubin
Hurd-Trout
And I'm missing a few. Yes, there are still many more good fights that can be made. And when they're made, they'll be long forgotten and we'll be clamoring for the next round.Comment
