    PBC bringing boxing to the mainstream fans whether you are from USA or UK!

    I love Al Haymon he is the best and saviour of boxing.

    If he's successful and manages to take over boxing and set his own subscription channel up that shows all the big fights what are you going to do then?

    You don't even drink motherfunker, put your hand in your pocket and spend some money.

    And Warren has a hell of a problem if Haymon is going for free to air TV in the UK too. If Haymon does take over boxing at some point he'll be able to buy BN for about a fiver and we'll all be paying our monthly subscription to him.

    I think Haymon has a very good mix of cards. I dont get the hate towards him as I think what hes planning to do is try to monopolize boxing (like the UFC). If we can get rid of the other organisations and only have 1 world champ in each division I dont see how that can be bad for boxing.

    Me neither. Don't care if it's Haymon or Fishnets or Arum or somebody else who does it so long as somebody does.

    PBC infiltrated UK well with BoxNation picking up cards, SpikeTV UK showing the spikeTV USA cards and now Channel 5 getting the remaining pieces...

    Sky are showing the Wilder card tonight and Porter-Broner next week along with the Ward fight. Smith is I think a Hearn fighter which explains the Ward card but Porter-Broner they've got no reason to buy unless it's to show future potential Brook PPV opponents.

    In related news Warren says Sky are apparently going to be doing a PPV show every two months to try and make some money after they did their bollocks getting the next Premier League* rights contract.
