You are acting like I'm saying they needed to just change the date right when Canelo made his announcement without preparing for it. No, I'm not saying that at all. All I'm saying is they should have prepared to go with the fight for both dates if possible, once it became clear that Canelo may not be going on September 14. If you think guys like Pugmire and Coppinger hear this stuff month or months before the official announcement, you don't think people inside boxing know either? You don't think the PBC knew there was a chance Canelo was a no go for that September 14 date?

    PBC isn't in the Canelo business. They can't make fights based on Canelo rumors. Why is that so hard for you to understand? You have a very simplistic view of business. Not only simplistic but unrealistic also. July 10th they'd already had date and money spent on the date. But you think they should've took the losses and switched the date 17 days later after Canelo officially announced he's not fighting?!?!?

      They sure could have plan around those "rumors." Lol at them taking the losses. Why would they take the losses if they would have planned for both dates? They would have had plan A and B in motion. Could have set the deadline to say July 20 or something if Canelo doesn't make a decision at that point they will go ahead with the 28th, if not they will go on the 14th. You for some reason keep acting like they HAD to get all their marketing prepared for the 28th by July 10 or something. Sorry, they still would have had 8 weeks to promote the event if they announced around the 20th on a date that often times does the best PPV numbers.

        Here's a real scenario and you answer this.

        It's July 10th and you've booked the production crew to start shooting promos with Spence & Porter on July 29th for the commercials you've to start running on August 12. How do you rearrange all that on July 17th when you've just found out for a fact that Canelo won't be fighting September 14th?

        You aren't thinking of all the other things that go into promoting fights. People have timelines and bookings already set and paid for. It isn't as simple as you're attempting to make it seem. And when it's this much money involved you can't tentatively schedule things based on rumors you've heard about Canelo. They aren't in the Canelo business.

          That's why I said set a deadline of how long you will wait for Canelo to make his decision. If Canelo still hasn't made a decision by that date, then move on to your original plans. But I don't buy they couldn't have had another plan tied to Spence/Porter going on September 14. This wasn't something they would have had to plan in a couple of days. No, if Coppinger/Pugmire months beforehand said Canelo may or may not go on September 14, then it was widely known inside boxing. At THAT point you start planning for both dates. If you don't think they could have pulled that off then fair enough. But.................

            Okay your right. You never said that yourself. But there's plenty of Davis/PBC fans on here who see it that way. I just don't understand why some people are Network/Promotional groupies instead of boxing fan's... I'm not saying you are but there's two on here among others that are straight PBC nuttrider's instead of boxing fan's....
            That piece of shet jabjab boom and oldschool biitch!
            Them hoes support anything and everything Al Haymon does...
            If Canelo was signed to PBC then they'd be swinging off his nutts like George of the jungle! We both know that!
            And them fool's want every fighter not signed to PBC to fight top competition everytime or else they are cowards and hype jobs.
            But they're okay with Davis and Charlo and any other PBC fighter fighting Uber drivers fight after fight.
            That's why I call them hypocrite biitches!
            Again I'm not calling you that. But ALOT of PBC nuttriders are fuccing hypocrites!
            I want to see Tank fight fighters like Farmer & l0m0 already. Jab jab is just a Nelo hater, I don't think he supports PBC, I actually like what PBC doing, they have been giving us the most quality fights in the last couple years. I can't blame Jermall Charlo for not getting the fights he wants either, I mean he called out golovkin's scared ass..lol..& was the mandatory & Jacobs doesn't even want to fight him, he wants to move up to 168. I want to see all the guys mix it up but I especially want to see the hype jobs like golovkin go 1st against Jermall Charlo, that would be a good fight but dazn is too invested in golovkin's scared ass & don't believe in golovkin, they only want golovkin for Nelo.

              I think they want Teo to fight Commey then l0m0 IF he beats Commey but l0m0's team has made contact with Teo's team after he fought the Japanese dude, at least that's what Teo said....

                Absolutely! Its our job to say what we want to see instead of "he should fight that guy instead or he doesn't deserve it" talk.

                  Teofimo Lopez admits he has to get head screwed on straight before fighting Richard Commey

                  Lopez was a guest on Max Kellerman’s ESPN boxing magainze show on Friday, and they discussed how family issues impacted the fighter going into his recent bout.

                  “I have to regroup within myself,” the boxer admitted, because of making weight, and worrying about how some in his family aren’t so supportive of his union, and he wants to rectify that.

                  He will look to figure things out, or if he doesn’t, he won’t fight until his head is screwed on tight and straight, he told Max.

                  No fight with Richard Commey, he told Kellerman, until all the outside the ring stuff gets sorted.
