PBC hasn't shown any PPV worthy fights what are you talking about?
Bullshit. He's the greatest fighter of his generation hands down, with or without the PPV revenue.
Oh it's not bullshit at all.
Except it is. I've never once seen anybody make a post claiming that PPV revenue is the main reason for Mayweather's greatness. Post a quote or you're lying. :deal
I said main arguing point. Go look at ESB threads from a few years ago. I'm not going near that cesspool.
No what's great is his longevity. If it wasn't for his defensive style, he wouldn't have been at the top of the sport for going on 20 years now with his brain still intact. Being undefeated and outspoken about breaking every record in the book comes after the fact.
Hush
Neither does PPV, 99% of the time - their undercards are almost always forgettable crap, and the main events disappoint more often than not.
Maybe not, but at least for the time being, there are very viable alternatives for people who don't believe that any sporting event is worth paying $70-$100 just to watch on TV. We'll see what the future holds, but at least for the time being, boxing is being treated like an actual sport should.
We're not talking about undercards ******. Tell me how many PPV worthy cards PBC has aired. I'll wait.
So you're conceding that three-quarters of nearly every card that charges you $75-$100 is crap? Good job at shooting yourself in the foot. :rolleyes
You mean as so-called "worthy" as Pac-Rios, Pac-Algieri, or Floyd-Guerrero? That would be at least half the cards that they show.
I agree that most PPV undercards are crap, I'm not saying I like PPVs I just don't see how PBC is getting rid of it.
I didn't necessarily say that PBC was "getting rid of it" (although I would love for that to happen) - I said that they are providing "very viable alternatives for people who don't believe that any sporting event is worth paying $70-$100 just to watch on TV." They're also showing fights much more frequently and bringing them to a larger audience, without simultaneously hurting the sport in the way that the overhyped cash-grab PPVs are doing the long run.
I'd say that that's more of a reflection on Pac/Floyd than on PBC - PBC is largely showing good young fighters that represent the future of the sport, whereas PPVs are being used by faded greats to make quick cash-grabs in their twilight years. Case in point: the next expected PPV will include another faded titleholder who has basically fabricated his own weight class in order to avoid more deserving challengers like the one in your avatar.
Yawn, boring.
