PBC bought views for YouTube

don't let some weird hate for a company blind you to obvious.

 

Beg? If anything, the fight was being built up. Not Haymon's fault Porter lost to Brook. PBC gave both guys appearances against good fighters to generate interest. And their fight was one of the year's best. I have casuals telling me how much they enjoyed it...and some cut the cable long ago. So, it says even more they could enjoy the fight for free. No point in trying to hate.

Arum has matched his best guys for years, again and again. If he has them, he'll put them in the ring together.

PBC has done everything to avoid matching their best guys, serving up plates of shite to the fans while ratings plummet.

Pretend it's all of boxing if you like, but no entity has squandered as much money as PBC on utter mismatch bull**** time and again while fans consistently asked for other match-ups.

It's not a proper company either, it's one corrupt man playing chess with his fighters to line his own pockets with other people's money.

The investors in the hedge fund he managed to raid are fuming.

 

Built up my foot. Haymon never wanted the fight, Thurman & Porter had to keep going to the media saying how they wanted it to happen. Haymon kept delaying it and delaying it until he had no option.

No doubt it was a good fight, but thank the fighters for making that bout happen, they pushed for it against the tide.

 

That's really sad atsch

 

So how does one even buy views? I didn't know that was possible. (not doubting or anything but just curious)

 

I am sure both guys thanked Al Haymon after the fight.

How do you know what Haymon wanted? The man never speaks publicly. What he does do is consistently put boxing on free tv, and keep the fighters happy. That's what we do know. And many of us are enjoying it...instead of b!tching about how much money he is wasting (like it's our money) or how every fight is not a fight of the year candidate. We all know it's experimental. If it doesn't pan out, it would've been good while it lasted. But, if it does....it needs to be given the proper respect.


The senseless hate is is just that...senseless.

From what i know, there are shady societies that does just that, you pay them according how many facebook likes/upvotes/whatever you want, and they have thousands of fake accounts set up to do the clicking, usually via bots.

It's illegal i think, but youtube and co. don't care because it still generates traffic

 

I don't know how they circumvent the "are you a bot" walls; maybe that part is still manual, and they rely on hundreds of chinese/indians people to set up the accounts.

Like the chineses basically held hostage in basements forced to play videogames for most of the day to sell the valuable items to the west.

"gold farmers" they're called, absurd to think it's a real thing

Once you have an account, you can use it via bots

 

Yup, amateur mistake

 

Probably went to tor, paid off a botnet to hit the url.

 

How often is this happening on youtube ? buying views ? And what does it say about PBC ? I mean, who da hell even cares about how many views has PBC when they check out boxing ? It's weird. is it just Uncle Al wanting to get a bit more money from companies that maybe wanna buy commercials time from PBC by saying " hey look gazillions are checking us out YT, we're big" ?!?!?

 

It's standard operating procedure for music artists (big and small), less common for other styles of videos.

Buying fake twitter followers is also extremely common for anyone in the entertainment industry, big or small.

 

My guess it's some script or bot opening the page on different IPs. Though I'm not even sure if YT views are IP unique so it could literally just be the same computer spamming refresh.

 

Exactly. Thurman-Porter was more PPV worthy than Crawford-Postol but was on free TV yet like idiots tell you PBC is bad for boxing.:nut I'll never understand that logic. I guess they're fine with Crawford-Postol being on PPV.
