Fox ain't putting in the money you think. That's why more and more PBC fights are going to PPV.
Showtime turn down Wilder last fight cause of the ridiculously price tag on that main event. Fox wasn't going to put 20 million plus into that fight to be on free network TV.
Boxing ain't getting that ad
Revenue to justify paying millions for that fight.
I'm not even sure canelo can get that ad revenue....maybe
The fight wasn't on the app. It was on paid cable that costs at least 40 a month with basic packages.
Fox is free. You don't need cable to get it. That why Fox is in more homes.
Without nationalism boxing is dead in America lol. You basically calling for the death of boxing. Being fan of a person is dumb? Without these type of fans no sport would survive. Being a hardcore fan of a fighter or fighters is not difference than being a fan of a team. If people don't care enough to pay money to see a fighter or team, the fighter go nowhere and the team fails
That is how sport work. That how comic book movies work. That's how music works etc .... Fandom is the most important thing to success in entertainment
The masses can be fans thats fine but we are on a forum and we have to leave fandom to the side when having higher boxing conversations. Just look at all of the journalists in the BWAA; Copp, Dan, Idec, etc.... they can all talk boxing all day long to their followers without showing any sense of pride or fandom.

we aint journalists lol
you do know many journalists will refuse to ask real tough questions cause they dont wont to get banned from attending future fights???
PBC has banned a couple of guys from attending their fights, so has Bob arum and DLH. these people are called the Access Media or access journalism. in boxing this is a big problem but its aint just in boxing. this happens in all media.
if it wasnt for the fandom or nationalism i wouldnt be a boxing fan. Tito Trinidad made me a boxing fan when i was like 8 years old. thanks to him i love boxing.
i've criticized many of my favorite fighters and even given credit to people i dont like. all my fandom really mean is i care enough to go to fights and pay money to see guys like crawford or Loma at MSG lol
that why nationalism and fandom matters or we dont have boxing. take away mexicans, puerto ricans or other people from the hispanic community from boxing and boxing is dead in america.
UFC would run everything in the fight game.
crawford got 4 million lol. this is why fighters are not in a hurry to fight the best. overpaying these guys to fight lower level boxers smh.
the boxing market is f***ing dumb.
i saw bob crying about ticket sells being low. people aint buying tickets to fights lol... well that cause main event are costing millions for trash fights.
people dont want to pay hundreds of dollars to see kavaliauska so you can try and cover the cost of that main event.
only canelo and AJ are the real draws in this sport of boxing.
I always liked Josh Taylor in the ring, he is one of my favs since he beat Davies (bootleg british version of Broner) but he always had that a******/racist vibe to him. Idk what it was, but to me i just always thought that, maybe it was the way he looked at Prograis or the way he tweets idk...but apparently he really is a racist:

Most of this is obvious but away from my point. Its fine for those weirdo hardcore fans to behave that way and go crazy for their countries but I dont expect that from people on a boxing discussion board.
The problem with this mentality on a boxing forum is that you twist and turn other peoples words. The way you try to label me as a “Haymon fan boy.” I find this absurd because I dont choose any sides ever and I know plenty of people who behave the same way. Some people are neutral and can still enjoy sports and entertainment without picking a side.

Put him in the ring with Crawford and see if he talk to Bud like that

Taylor vs Crawford would be a great match. Taylor’s already big for 140. I’d also wanna see him vs Mikey, Broner, Ugas, Lipinets, Khan, or Prograis again

Me too, thats a good list of opponents for him I want to see Rougarou fight some of those guys too

What forum do you go on that are not full of fans? Lol
Every person I ever talk to on forums have fighters they support. Boxing without hardcore fans is trash.
Where would soccer be in this world without the crazy fandom lol. Fandom is good and it keep boxing alive.
Forums are for hardcore fans. IRL no1 cares about boxing to the level you see online.
I wish Americans would support their own. Americans for the most part are pretty s*** at supporting or coming together unless the country is attacked by terrorists lmao
There is a good reason why the crowds in UK are better than America. Only Puerto Ricans, Irish or Mexican crowds can match the UK. American crowds are boring.
The world baseball classic show how sad we are compare to Latin America or Asian countries.
This is why American boxing scene is s***.
Eddie offered Charlo 7 million to fight Andrade for 1 fight.
He ain't leaving haymon, not even for one fight. Lol
Maybe if Eddie offered a PPV fight but that s*** ain't selling. No money in that
Me too, thats a good list of opponents for him I want to see Rougarou fight some of those guys too
fasho. Prograis vs Broner since they already have beef. We get to see Broner KO'd again
Prograis vs Mikey is must see too but sucks Mikey is staying at welterweight and fighting Jessie Vargas next lol. He literally has no business at welterweight... he just there to chase a pacquiao fight since pac only has 1 fight left in his pbc contract.
I like that Gervonta Davis fighting in ATL. More black fighters should be fighting in places like that. Where there is a good almost of the black community to support him and others.
Big reason I support Crawford going to his hometown more. He ain't selling much in New York.
Al haymon to his credit done a great job in Brooklyn with black fighters.

we will be seeing broner back in the ring very soon lol
This clown.

Lmao that reminds me, if Maidana ever comes back id like to see a rematch with him and Broner tbh. True dat, Mikey should go back down and keep trying to chase the Loma fight instead. Mikey vs Pac isnt really interesting to me idk why
