Missing Spence on NBC.

Missing Spence on NBC.

Spence only fought once this year on Showtime against Brook.
It was last year he was on NBC

seeing the list, there is no denying that pbc is getting out of primetime tv.
They still have fs1 and bounce, but those are smaller shows to build up prospects.

if your list is complete, they only had 4 major events on primetime tv of which 2 were average/below average events (guerrero vs figoeroa/cruz and lopez in tuneup bouts)

yep. haymon failed spectacularly. mismanaged the crap outta the pbc. hes the kind of guy that buys a 300k ferrari to impress a girl on a 30k salary. teh first couple months everything is going well....then when those later payments are due....uh ohhhh.

The more ideal brand for boxing today is ESPN, it’s just a more avid network for all types of
Sports.

However, given its boxing, Thurman vs Garcia on CBS is the most successful.

Aesthetically, I hate it when fights are in day light. Its the worst eye sore with that overcast shadow on top of fighters. Old school prize fighting in day light was the best with the sun directly hitting them.

Horn vs PAC or Ortiz vs Berto is just horrid “lighting.” As a viewer you can’t see detail just foooking shadows on their skin...

Also imo shadow detail impairs the actual fighters’ vision as well. You need spot lighting or else it looks ghetto

Boxing events should strictly be controlled inside domes
