Spike, as @danrafaelespn reports, the first PBC network to bail. Others, industry execs say, will follow. Haymon creation crumbling.

http://ucnlive.com/pbc-still-espn/#.WPD_TzmL6YI.twitterSo just what happened to the current dates? On the ESPN.com boxing schedule, while there is a plethora of boxing on the calendar from all across the world on various networks, there are no PBC on ESPN dates currently listed. The April 14 PBC card on ESPN, which was listed only as “Venue-TBA,” was taken down last week. PBC does have broadcasts listed for Showtime, FS1/FOX Deportes and Bounce TV.
But that doesn’t mean ESPN is out of the boxing business. Late last year, it was announced that Golden Boy Promotions had entered a deal with ESPN to show fights on their various platforms and those slots are being filled in accordingly.
The scuttlebutt is Haymon owes several millions to the network and litigation could be pending.
When contacted by UCNLive.com about the status of their relationship with ESPN, Tim Smith, the Director of Communications for the PBC, said (via email), “We still have a great relationship with ESPN, as we do with all our television partners. We’re in the process of determining how best to position certain fights on certain networks, as we move forward with the Premier Boxing Champions series.”

Combat sports are very dangerous when played by the rules.
It's these imbecile refs like from the Colon fight and dirty fighters like Andre Ward, B Hop, and Terrell Williams among others that love to use filthy tactics in the ring.
The Broner head locks, elbows and forearms.
Andre Ward and B Hop throwing numerous head butts.
Let's hope dirty fighters get theirs too
Alexander's brothers fighting. He does that grunt with every punch too. I find it so annoying.

Boxing requires class and respect.

Well I heard that Virgil Hunter doesn't have experience fighting. Perhaps Ward shouldn't listen to him.
