Comments Thread For: Spence-Porter Unification To Land At Barclays - And Off PPV

[sicko]

I think it is GREAT Putting a unification fight on FOX for FREE but only on this forum would some people try to make a negative out of that...OF COURSE!

Shawn Porter is tough and very physical, this will not be easy for Spence Jr at all

[15 round fight]

What happened to Spence's large Mexican fanbase that bought and attended his fight with Mikey? They wont buy his fight with Porter?

Are u mad that its not on PPV? This is an intelligent move.

Porter didn't look as good in his last fight. Non-PPV, you can't beat that and I'm looking forward to it. With that said, what's next after the winner is announced?

Once their profile is build up on fox and fans start knowing the details of the boxers. That's when u put them on PPV..

Yo, this will be one hell of an tournament. Last man standing face Crawford if he still have the strap...

You are deflecting. There was nothing In my comment indicating a complaint about regular TV.

Wonder what the fighters are getting paid for this? Being on free TV builds the sport and increases total value over time I just wonder if some fighters will be making less in the short term though.

It’s a pointless fight and Porter is dreadful to watch. But I’ll watch it on free TV. The Aug date guarantees that Spence won’t be Canelo’s Sept opponent, which is disappointing. But means we may get to see Errol fight three times this year. Albeit probably against someone that will be hard to get excited about.

If Pbc and Haymon thought this mismatch would make $ on Ppv that wat it would b in a heartbeat!! Porter and his ugly style r way overmatched in this one!! Same reason Wilder/ Breazele is not ppv.

This is very good news. A world title unification bout on prime time free network television. It doesn't get any better than this.
