    Why cant we get top notch fights on Fox??

    I enjoyed the fight last week and love Aerrola but it shouldnt have been the main event. We got Robert Guerrero shoved down our throats for Main Events on Fox, Berto in main events and now Lara in a main event. More fights like Thurman and Porter and Hurd-Williams on Network TV will help grow the sport. It’s frustrating

      It's not just Fox. PBC has been giving Showtime even worse cards, Showtime is going to pull out of boxing soon because of them.

        You can't get top notch fights every weekend. If you did, then they wouldn't be top notch.

          Cuz the PBC are scared to make top notch fights. They laugh at other Boxers when they lose but then put their own fighters in mismatches and try sell them to you as top notch fights. The PBC fans and defenders will lap those mismatches up though cuz they are not a fan of Boxers or Boxing they are a fan of the PBC.

            If they gave viewers the triple lindy before each event they'd be alright.

              Whether it's PBC or Top Rank, more dates to fill = fewer big fights.

                  Definitely agree with this. That fight was supposed to be on network tv in the beginning. I don't know why they moved it to PPV. Perhaps the purse demands

                    Because big fights aren't profitable without PPV. It's been that way for such a long time for a reason.

                    Fox has good fights though, just bad announcers.
