PBC's ratings on Fox have been strong. TR's ratings on ESPN have been week. PBC's Fox PPVs have exceeded all expectations. TR's ESPN PPV was a complete disaster. PBC is creating a lot of new American stars. TR is resorting to signing foreigners to try to mask how thin their roster is.Not a fan of most of this in the immediate future cuz idk that Errol has a big PBC fight vs Manny coming so Bud is The Fight now to make.
And I suspect most fans are even digging this less than I am. Hard to win the money & ratings of fans when their hearts & minds are rooting against you.
But if this is standard Al long game sh^t itll get there, but f#ck man we all gonna die one day & Al aint gonna live forever either. Idk if this "takeover" is gonna happen by PBC. I kinda just think Al is making +EV money moves while hoping for the possibilities of a takeover that is a longshot at best.
Every year that goes by, the gap between PBC and TR will grow. Slowly, but surely. Until eventually all the fans think of PBC as being the clear #1 and TR the distant #2.Comment
