Comments Thread For: PBC on ESPN/ABC Multi-Year Deal Set - Details Revealed

[Fetta]

10 rounds at a catch weight. No titles on the line.



Quillin - Lee title is on the line but will most likely not be mentioned or displayed on the PBC broadcast. Just as Thurman's title was not shown or mentioned.

Dirrell - DeGale will not be a PBC fight. DeGale is not a Haymon fighter.

Garcia - Peterson is a 10 round catchweight with no titles on the line.

PBC not mentioning which of the many ABC title it is, is that important to you?

Damn!

Here's a screen grab of the officials restraining Thurman's corner from bringing in his title after the fight on NBC.

Great news! The more shows he has, the sooner he runs out of money and we can get back to real boxing instead of this crap he is spoon feeding all the easy to please casuals.

By real fights, you mean instant classics such as Golovkin/Monroe Jr? If ****** were a disease, this message board would be considered an epidemic.


Before Al Haymon and PBC came along we would be lucky if we got see 8 fights annually on HBO and Showtime that were not on PPV. Among those 16 fights, 12 would be mismatches. Some of the PPVs, such as Pacquaio/Algieri, and Pacquaio/Rios would be gross mismatches and other PPVs such as Alvarez/Lara and Alvara/Angulo belonged on Friday Niight Fights instead of PPV.

Al Haymon and PBC is the best thing to happen to boxing in the last 30 years; and although you will never admit it, I am sure you were sitting in front of your television watching Thurman/Guerrero and will be sitting in front of your television again on April 11 watching Garcia/Peterson and Quillin/Lee.

I wouldn't say it's the best thing to happen to boxing in 30 years. I think the internet is. We have much more opportunity to access boxing material.

Here's a screen grab of the officials restraining Thurman's corner from bringing in his title after the fight on NBC.

I'd like to see an official try to stop Kovalev from displaying his three world titles in the ring. He would drop him where he stands and turn and walk out of the ring.

Damn!

Fighters work and train their entire lives to win their titles and those titles should not be disrespected by some piece of crap troll like Haymon. That disrespects the fighters and the fans as well. If Haymon and his PBC want to pull crap like that, they should be honest about it and reveal all of their plans now. Because the way I look at it, there are no champions in Premier Boxing Champions so maybe they should change their name.

[Bermuda]

I'm actually crying right now. This is so incredible and overwhelming. The sport I love is coming back into the mainstream. Soon everyone will be in love with boxing!

Haymon is truly the greatest person to have ever come into boxing. He has brought boxing back into the mainstream and on top of that he is giving us all the fights we want.

We should all give him our thanks and praise! Thank you Haymon for everything.

Oh so tell me which of the titles do you like

Intercontental, silver, interim, regular, super, emeratus, or emerald...i even think there may be a platinum.

IBO, IBF, WBA, WBC, WBO, or one of the others.

They called them Champions and thats good enough for me.

I think that's alright. I think Haymon is teaching us that boxing is not about belts, rankings, and whatever achievements. Instead boxing is about warriors, it's about blood and guts, it's about heroism, it's about courage and bravery, it's about rising to the occasion and being all that you can be!

At the end of the day, Haymon is giving us blood and guts heroic warrior fights that we all should be proud to watch.
