    I'm doing the comparisons to show that more people are being exposed to PBC fighters than HBO fighters. Don't you want as many people as possible to watch your fighters?

        Yes. Boxing is a business.

          Most of the fights are boring, too many "RUN first" boxers with Al.


          Imagine Fransisco Vargas Vs Muira on PBC, Canelo vs Cotto, or even Ruslan vs Mathysse.

          I know good ole AL looks out for his fighters, but this is a business, the HURT business to be exact, people like back and forth action, he needs to cater to the fans for PBC to blow up.

          Even Hardcore fans will turn off the TV if a fighter is just there to steal a win, the most anti-dramatic way possible.

          Imagine Gatti Ward on PBC, lol the world would go wild.

            I agree. The best fights were on Spike Tv. Honestly besides Broner-Porter none of the NBC cards were compelling. But the top fighters got exposure. So imagine when Porter/Thurman is on Fox or NBC or Wilder/Povetkin or Khan/Garcia II. Khan did 1.1 on Spike TV. Spence is known now. Whenever they decide to put their foot on the pedal they can avg 3-4 mil imo.

              I think he's talking about the exposure the boxers are getting.

                PBC only has room to grow. Won't be long before the takeover.

                  HBO is selling their bigger fights to alot of other countries, for example all GGG fights can be seen in most of europe on free tv.

                  You will never see PBC fights here.

                  Europeans prefer quality over quantity.

                    NBC is broadcast nationally and you don't need cable or satellite to receive it. HBO is available by paid subscription and it is primarily only available to cable and satellite subscribers. So basically NBC is in three times as many homes, of course it will have more viewers.
