I remember when 50's company filed for bankruptcy so many people on here were saying this is no big deal he is just trying to protect his assets and this was just a procedure to restructure his company. Now we seeing it was more then that and one by one all his fighters are suing him and jumping ship. Good for Gamboa 50 has totally ruined this kid's career. He only signed in the first place because he thought Floyd was going to be involved. Once he pulled out it was clear 50's SMS was going nowhere. I feel bad for all the fighters

He was at Floyds gym working out recently so he can end up under the Mayweather Promotions banner or he could just sign with Haymon. Next piece to fall is Mickey Garcia. 2016 will be a big year for the PBC if they can add those 2 guys.

ICYMI: #PBConNBC viewership continues to fall. My blog: #boxing - tweeted out by Dan Rafael

Heavyweight titlist Deontay Wilder's mismatch with France's unknown Johann Duhaupas on Saturday night on NBC's Premier Boxing Champions card was not a hit with viewers.

Wilder (35-0, 34 KOs), who stopped Duhaupas (32-3) in the 11th round of the expected one-sided fight, headlined a prime-time card that received very little buzz given the nature of the match. The overall card, which also featured heavyweight Dominic Breazeale (16-0, 14 KOs) getting a very questionable 10-round decision win against Fred Kassi (18-4-1, 10 KOs), averaged 2.2 million viewers, according to Nielsen. It peaked at 3 million viewers during the main event.

Yes, the card was competing with a full slate of college football, but it was nonetheless the least-viewed PBC card on NBC in prime time since its launch in March.

It was the fourth PBC on NBC card in prime time, and each has declined compared to the previous edition.

The March 7 debut card, topped by Keith Thurman-Robert Guerrero, averaged 3.37 million viewers; the second card, headlined by Danny Garcia-Lamont Peterson on April 11, drew an average of 2.88 million viewers; and the third show, headlined by Shawn Porter-Adrien Broner on June 20, dropped to an average of 2.33 million viewers.

The downward trend has to be troubling for the PBC, which has steadfastly declined to discuss its goals for viewership. But PBC, created by boxer adviser/manager Al Haymon, is being put on as a time buy with some $450 million in investor money from a hedge fund hoping the series would draw large enough audiences and advertising revenue to entice a network or networks to ultimately pay for the product or even buy it outright.

According to Sports Media Watch, however, Saturday's telecast had a smaller audience for a prime-time boxing or MMA event on network television than any of the past 25 since 2008, which includes all 16 editions of UFC on Fox, five EliteXC/Strikeforce MMA cards on CBS and the four PBC on NBC shows.

The only way 50 was going to make it in boxing was with Mayweather.

When he burnt that bridge the writing was on the wall.

Boxing aint the music industry.

50 pride kept him in the game following that messy breakup with Mayweather, thinking he could make it, trying to save face.

He should have backed out the door politely, instead he got tossed.

If gamboa can break free, there is still a lot of figts for him..


Comeback vs juanma lopez
Then fights with salido-roman, Russell jr, lomachenko, Walters, at 130

[BattleAxePurist]

So he isn't signed w/Floyd then

Martin is a good prospect but why anyone thought signing with this guy was a good idea makes me scratch my head
