    My only issue is the three way split has spread things too thin. Other than that I don't get it.
    I don’t think everyone picks sides just because they prefer one to the other. It’s just a few clowns that do that. If you refute someone point about Pbc or espn the idiots on this board equate that to being a pbc or espn groupie. If you don’t want to buy dazn it’s not because you are anti Hearn.

    We need to stop letting the most ignorant posters drive the discussion.

      It's honestly the most ******ed argument in sports. Like fools are actually arguing over networks...

      It started with HBO and SHO when Manny jumped ship for a fight and escalated once Floyd and PBC made the jump permanently.

          It's no different then liking basketball but only watching Laker games but not giving a damn about the Bulls or Knicks.

            I can understand people having certain biases and preferences in promoters. It's the irrational hatred of promotional companies and blatant double standards that is just ******. People will just make up the most ******ed conspiracy theories to push whichever narrative is most favorable to their favorite promoter.

                This.

                And you can do this by ignore listing the most ignorant people here while making more good threads that'll automatically keep them out since your ignoring them.

                  The anti-PBC posters were inundated by anti-PBC propaganda when PBC launched. PBC went after mainstream coverage and didn't kiss the ass of boxing reporters like boxing reporters were accustomed to. So boxing reporters, to punish PBC, slammed them day in and day out with whatever nonsense Arum and DLH were feeing them.

                  You guys have to understand how hard it is to make a living as a boxing reporter. So boxing reporters have always been the most susceptible to manipulation. I was around in the Don King days when every press conference had an immaculate spread. Expensive wine, you name it. King covering hotel rooms, strip clubs, whatever you wanted. Boxing reporters got used to these kind of perks being a standard part of the job.

                  Then PBC comes around and not only didn't suck up to the boxing reporters, they flat out ignored them. So boxing reporters were out for blood. PBC broke the unspoken rule that boxing reporters are to be wined and dined and treated like gold at all times to make up for the ****ty pay.

                  You talk **** about Dazn and Hearn in your first 15 words then spend 2 paragraphs with you tongue up Al Haymons backside.

                  Why do you choose sides?.

                    PBC/Showtime fanboys are the most fanatical, almost bordering on cult.
                    TR has crossover appeal when it comes to hate.
                    Don't even know why they hate DAZN.

                      The reason they’re the worst is because of their ignorance and bias. Pretending to be objective but they’re Literally incapable of seeing anything unless it benefits their fighter then they’re the masters of understanding and logic. See their reaction to aj rejecting 50 mil to Deontay rejecting 100 for example.

                      Also they’re disgusting hypercrites who will call Joshua unknown and with their next breath will say Deontay would be leaving money on the table by having the aj fight on dazn as opposed to showtime ppv because it’s going to sell over 1.5 million ppvs even though wilder only sold 300k against fury and aj is “unknown” in their own words.

                      I like dazn because I genuinely feel like they’d make all the best Fights they can if they had the fighters they want because they need subscriptions at this point so they’re desperate to impress. The pbc welterweight situation has shown me they’re in no rush to make the fights the fans really want to see.

                      Personally I have no real promotional bias. I paid good money to watch porter vs Garcia and Degale vs Eubank jnr, two pbc cards and im going to loma vs Corolla next Friday so I’ve got nothing against top rank either except their tedious undercards.
