Comments Thread For: Premier Boxing Champions, FOX Sports Announce 2019 Schedule

PBC has the most entertaining boxers.. AB, Charlo twins, Thurman & even Spence is starting to talk more, The press conference they host with announcing all there fights are nice... I just wish these fighters fought more than twice a year.

I think the risk that Haymon is taking is having Wilder vs. Fury PPV in December, Pacquiao vs. Broner PPV in January, and Spence Jr. vs. Garcia PPV in March! If the price is $49.99 per fight, then he's good, but if it's $69.99 per fight, then one of those will flop!

(...)
... Al Haymon was actually forced into these kind of "risks" by some recent developments in the market... In fact, Al Haymon should have made these kind of fights since 2015, but he didn't... right?

PBC has been giving good fights since 2015! For example, here are some highlights from 2015:

March 7: Thurman vs. Guerrero
April 4: Stevenson vs. Bika
April 11: Garcia vs. Peterson
April 11: Andy lee vs. Quillen
April 24; Dirrell vs. Jack
April 24: Jacobs vs. Truax
May 9: Figueroa vs. Burns
May 23: Dirrell vs. DeGale
May 29: Khan vs. Algieri
June 20: Broner vs. Porter
July 11: Thurman vs. Collazo
August 29: LSC vs. Mares
September 6: Dirrell vs. Rubio
September 12: Bundrage vs. Charlo
October 16: Cleverly vs. Fonfara
October 17: Peterson vs. Diaz

I would say that's a pretty good line-up, and I can't think of any other organization that did a better job! Can you?

... I know you can read: it wasn't about "some highlights from 2015"... it was about "some" real big PPVs since back then... (which he didn't make)...

[killakali]

All your favorites fight cans ALL the time so?

They do? Canelo just fought GGG back to back....so....there goes your argument lmaoooo

[IRONCHINHAGLER]

All garbage showcase mismatches.
- the norm for most pbc on Fox primetime ..... 3 competitive fights that matter and r intriguing r all on ppv.

May 2, 2015: Mayweather vs. Pacquiao! Please don't say something ridiculous like "Haymon didn't have anything to do with that!"

[j.razor]

Yup only good fights rest are super wack.

The "super wack" ones are WWWAAAAYYYYY better than your posts....LMMFAO!

[j.razor]

Now that’s a way to make a splash Al Haymon.

Give the boxing fan and casual fan just a bunch of blahh type matchups. Al Haymon just burned the heck out of Fox on this deal.

The original PBC that came out a few years back made a 100 times better matchup to start the year. And those were time slot buys

Now that Fox is paying Haymon he give them these shhht matchups.

Someone name me one can’t miss matchup.

Oh well, it ain’t like this was unexpected from Al Haymon. I guess in a couple years when Fox drops PBC. We will all say, I told you so.

You’d think If you truly wanted the general public to accept boxing again. You give them nothing but top notch PPV quality fights.

Oh well

FOH. Al is doing it BETTER than anyone for the last few years but YOU aint sayin ANYTHING about the weak fights put on by the other networks & other promoters. Now WHY is that? Could it be that YOU work for THEM? OR are you just a dumb hater?? Oh well as long as someone like me gets to point out your B.S.

[Realboxingfan1]

Then your not a "Realboxingfan1" cuz as long as that man put his dues in he can do what he wants.

yea go ahead and enjoy the circus freak show . I’ll stick to tha real players doing real boxing.

[uppercut510]

At least DAZN isn't trying to get people to pay for **** like Garcia vs Spence and put it on PPV. Nobody was asking for that fight.

yeah instead u can pay for whyte vs chisora2....

all this promoter/network banging is getting old

[Jax teller]

Yeah for about 2 rounds. Gervonta should fight someone in his own weight class.

Like who, 'Big Baby' Miller?
