Santa Cruz v Flores is the fight I really love on this list. Love that kids style. It’ll be a fun fight.
PBC is getting a lot of flack for this?

Idk where to even start with your list. A lot of those fights no one gave a f#ck about nor were asking for. If they were good fights fair play, but I'm talking about more of the name guys fighting each other.I think that says a lot about fans.
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

Ok, you first mentioned good fights. If we're talking name fighters, that's another story. It's definitely happened quite a few times (look at the list), but ther eis more to be done. And it'll happen. And people will clamor for more. So it goes.Comment

Nah I didn't mention good fights like that. If you read what I said I clearly said there were good fights. There just aren't as many big fights as I & many others think there should be.
I ain't that guy. I'm a guy who's gonna appreciate whatever I get given cuz a lot of good sh^t happens across all the major boxing platforms, but the reality is PBC has the biggest roster in the game & they are making as many or fewer big fights than other platforms which is where the problem lies. PBC should be king of boxing if they were making the big fights as often as they could be.It's definitely happened quite a few times (look at the list), but ther eis more to be done. And it'll happen. And people will clamor for more. So it goes.
And like I said people keep moving the time table. I've been hearing since day 1 that we'll see big fights more often when people know the PBC big names better. Recently I was hearing that this new Fox deal would be a game changer for their matchmaking. Clearly thats not happened. I'm sure now the PBC fanboys will say we'll give them a year to make these guys who everyone already knows a lil bigger.
I'm a fan of PBC & rooting for their success, but I don't think they are applying themselves to have maximum impact in the boxing world & thats disappointing to me. I'm a PBC fan, but I'm not a PBC fanboy who's believes the sun rises & sits up their ass.Comment

Spence fighting a guy 2 weight divisions smaller than him has nothing to do with Hearn.
Lets see all the morons from your side of the world who slagged off Golovkin for fighting Brook do the same here. Oh no, wait, you're all hypocrites.
Love the ironic name by the way.Comment

You're not looking forward to Whyte/Chisora after the war in the first fight?
Anyone who doesn't like that fight isn't a real boxing fan.Comment

Any time you have a black man at the head of an organization, you can expect "certain" fans to label said organization as nefarious... Just the way it is.Comment

Oh I get it, let's blame PBC.
Where were you when BJS blatantly ducked Daniel Jacobs? You were quiet as a whore in Church. Now that BJS attempted to fight someone worth a damn on DAZN now you're praising the Lord with special thanks to your savior Eddie Hearn.
And lol at the the general public clamoring for Usyk vs Bellew
Jesus you guys are predictable... Wash and repeat the same routine for yearsComment

Don’t really care whether you’re a fanboy or not —irrelevant. Not interested in a goalpost someone else moved either. There have been plenty of big fights already and there will be more. I agree there aren’t many, if any, in that list, but I don’t nut early so I’ma see how it plays out.Nah I didn't mention good fights like that. If you read what I said I clearly said there were good fights. There just aren't as many big fights as I & many others think there should be.

wholeheartedly agree with the sentiment you cant please everybodyWho 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!
but also i would like to say if ppl used their views like a voting bloc there would be more control but unfortunately no one looks at that narrativeComment
