He’s failing for the same reasons a lot of PBC fighters are, inactivity. A fighter show promise then he doesn’t fight again for another 8 or 9 months and the opponent always end up being Sulecki/Montiel caliber fighters. You don’t get better that way.
He just fished for the Canelo and lost out to Hearn, and then couldn’t get Munguia to sign up. This one isn’t really on him.
Shouldn't PBC be making money on their fight cards? It seems like the more often he fights the more money they make.
they arent big draws. Jermell Charlo vs Brian Castano Sold - 2,779 Comp - 1,928 Gate Revenue - $376,345.00 This content is protected
not fighting the next best available opponent is on him. Danny Jacobs is available. He is better then Sulecki & Montiel. After that he can fight Boo-boo or Benevidez while he waits for the Canelo Sweepstakes. All 3 of those guys are better then Sulecki & Montiel. Plus, they all want the smoke. If your only going to fight once a year You should make it count. Especially if your chasing Canelo That is definitely on him.
This takes away from the great fighters of this era. Most guys are hardly ready to fight for a strap against the elite these days. Your comment is dead on. Just my opinion.
Bad business model. Canelo gets paid more & he fight 3-4 times a year. you can do that when your constantly fighting the best / collecting belts. Imagine if Canelo only fought Yildrim Last year?! & Only Rocky Fielding the year before. that’s is basically what Charlo is doing every year.
Damn!!!! PBC is losing money every time he fights. Purse was 3.6 million. Not sure how much Showtime is paying for event but that is some weak gate sales.
Honestly I don’t think PBC has turned a profit from any of their championship fights since it’s inception with the exception of Canelo vs Plant and maybe Pacquiao vs Thurman. Considering all the talent they had when it started they vastly underperformed as a promotional outfit.
