How Petty was The PBC For This?

[Szef]

It's mentioning another fighter on your platform, a platform in which the other fighter will not fight on. It's giving that fighter promotion during YOUR pay per view. Casuals may see him as a champ and want to check him out, so yeah, it's giving him promotion. Shouldn't be that hard to understand

they don't actually have to say his name on air just list him as one of the champions on the graphic which he is don't be ridiculous.

boom..........

boom..........

Um, it's Al Haymon. Since when is he going to give any other fighter that isn't his any air time or mention?

Are we still on boxingscene? Why are folks acting as if we don't know how Haymon operates. We're talking about a guy that advised fighters for years not to take a promoter so he could use Goldenboy to promote the fighters all while orchestrating a deal in the backround for his own platform. Then when he got that platform he stole all the fighters away. He is the sleaziest dude in the game. Do people really think he's above being petty enough not to mention a rival promoters/networks fighter on a PPV broadcast with his guys on it?

Some of you need to remember just who this guy is

LOL they did not put Crawford in the graphic because they knew he is the big Elephant in the room. It had nothing to do with cost etc. It was more or less them leaving him out because they are ordered not to. They will not look beyond their own bubble. It is funny though that ESPN mentions PBC fighters all the time.


This makes the PBC look so damn insecure LOL

[The Big Dunn]

I didn’t see this but this is really petty and childish. I get Haymon is tired of the WBO and the way they pander to Bob but just give Crawford his due as a ww titleholder.

PBC missed the boat not having their own titles and dumping sanctioning bodies.

Should have made it a league like Al intended.

They showed Ruiz KO AJ with Dazn highlights on the telecast last night.

We know who is and we know how he operates bruh

But just because we know how he do doesn't mean we have to accept it

Not mentioning the arguably best WW is just unnecessary and petty AF

[KnockoutKings]

Why promote another promoter's fighter who in all likelihood will not fight on your network?

Well who else does that? HBO would still acknowledge Showtime fighters. Its not like they asked pbc to promote Crawford next fight. You can at least mention his name lol this aint wwf vs wcw

[Idunnoshet]

It was Petty But ...
IMO PBC was kinda smart about doing it.
The way i saw it they showed the WW titlists in a tournament bracket form .
Which is why when Pac won they removed Thurman leaving Pac and Porter / Spence who will fight next . I think they show that again when they fight and remove the loser ( Porter ) . Leaving up only Pac and Spence who are left to face each other .

[Pigeons]

Well the WBO did join the party of calling PBC a monopoly around '15-16. If memory serves me right, they were even added as a plaintiff in a lawsuit against PBC.
