    Wilder/Fury (black and brit) did more PPV buys than Canelo/Smith (Mexican and brit)

            Mikey is just THAT dude though. He will do that to fighters. Easter's fights with Commey/Shafikov/Fonfura were exciting. Which ones were exciting for Herring again?

            Herring clearly lost to Ladarius Miller who isn't even that good and then tried to go on twitter to complain about the scorecards when no one thought he won. He has a nice story and he made the right decision going to TR since he is getting some shine now where that would have never happened on PBC. Simply put, he was behind a lot of fighters and showed nothing to get some hype when he got battered and beaten the first time he stepped up. This wasn't a case of him just getting caught early in a fight where he was cold. He legitimately was getting beaten up by Shafikov round after round.
            lmao don’t ever call Robert Easter exciting.

            Ito-Herring will be ALOT better than this garbage. This was hands down the worst card of the year. That Postol fight was terrible.

            Can’t believe I DVR’d that card.

                Sources: Deontay Wilder-Tyson Fury fight generates 325,000 PPV buys

                http://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/i...s?platform=amp

                According to various media reports, the Deontay Wilder vs. Tyson Fury showdown compelled between 300,000-325,000



                DEONTAY WILDER VS. TYSON FURY TRACKING AT OVER 300,00 PAY-PER-VIEW BUYS

                https://www.******.com/549226-deonta...per-view-buys/

                Canelo Alvarez's return to the junior middleweight division against Liam Smith last month generated close to 300,000 pay-per-view buys, Golden Boy Promotions CEO Oscar De La Hoya told ESPN.com.

                http://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/i...-per-view-buys

                Canelo Alvarez’s stoppage of Liam Smith on Sept. 17 produced an attendance record of 51,420 for a boxing match at AT&T Stadium. No such records were set on HBO PPV, but it didn’t spit the bit, either. The bout against the mostly unknown Smith garnered around 300,000 buys, a source told ******.com on Tuesday.

                https://www.******.com/467945-canelo...0000-ppv-buys/

                The trustworthy L.A. Times reporter Lance Pugmire came out yesterday and announced to the world that last weekend’s WBO super welterweight title fight between Canelo Alvarez and Liam Smith did roughly 250-300 thousand pay per view buys

                  1) I never said this fight would be exciting.

                  2) Easter Jr HAS been more exciting than Herring. That's not debateable.

                  3) Easter Jr's fight with Commey was WAY more exciting than any fight Herring has been in.

                  4) Herring-Ito may be more exciting, but who said otherwise? Who debated that Robert/Rances was going to be a great fight or anything?

                  5) Herring was getting boo'd in the 10 rounder he had on ESPN, that is a fact.

                  6) You said Herring was one of Haymon's biggest signings which was laughable.

                  You keep taking things to the extreme and start to say things that were never debated.

                    And you think if Crawford is with PBC he'll suddenly be able to fight 3x a year?
                    Do you see PBC fighters fighting 3x a year?
                    Some of them even fight 1x a year.
                    Who has Spence fought so far in the PBC camp?
                    Mikey Garcia, who is a 135 guy.
                    Why would these PBC fighters fight Crawford even if he's with PBC,
                    when Spence can't even get fights.

                      He ain't fighting 3x's a year now. That's wishful thinking on Bomac's part. Top Rank can't afford to fight him 3x's a year. Crawford & Spence have both fought 10x's since 2015

                      Spence is signed to fight Porter this summer.

                      Do you keep up with boxing bro?

                      Or are you just here to hate on pbc?
