[Bleed The Freak]

We shall see. I honestly don't know anymore. IF IF this is true God help us from Oscar and Arum running their mouths.

Hope some of them could make the GGG/Jacobs undercard or Loma vs Walters.

Would be perfect for (with HBO cheap budget) Berto/Thurman vs Bradley. Because there are some dope fights in Nov/Dec and they $$ is getting effected.

the bolded..absolute truth...im a database guy so excel i know like the back of my hand...but it amazes me when there are people who can't even do a simple v lookup for crying out loud..they stay having excel workshops within my company

@Thatrogueassdiaz, fam, I've been telling you that coming up on Excel is a key to prosperity

LOL, I've led a few of them and I don't teach them anything noteworthy.

Vlookups
Sumif
Sparse conditional formatting
Subtotal

Things like index and matching, indirects, contextual drop down lists, I don't have the time or the patience. To get that knowledgeable, it can't be simply taught. You have to try and fail, over and over to make sure everything is legit within the function. I used to work as a senior contract analyst for Tenet Health in Chicago so all I did was play in Excel, look at trends and purchasing habits and make the numbers make sense for the C-Suite people.

How the hell do you have MOST of the best/name fighters and still fukk it up???

Easy: Mismanagement.

All the house fighters should have fought each other by now.

Part of me wants to see what ODLH can do if he were to get his stable of fighters back..I am sick and tired of mostly Mexican fight cards. Some of those cards are boring as hell and serve no long-term purpose.

Hit me with a link where I can learn how to do vlookups, sumif, and SCF.

I'm a purchasing agent/supply chain management analyst, and although we have software that does it for us, it's always nice to add another skill to the resume.

It helps too to know SAP and Lean too as a Supply Chain guy too. Lots of YouTube videos to bring you up to speed if you haven't already.

I've read this thread for the past few days and got a chance to hear Fat Dan break it down Monday with Randy Gordon and Gerry c00ney. I'll be back in a few to give my opinion...

I run off JobBoss rn and I'll be starting a new job in a week working EpiCore.

When I'm 6 months in at the new place, I'm gonna have them send me to get SAP/MRP certified. My goal is to start my own ERP implementation consulting company in the next 10yrs. So yea I'd have to learn the big boys (Oracle/SAP). But, I've heard changing MRP systems is like driving a new car. The function is essentially the same, it's just how you get there.

That why I want to see what he can do now that Schaefer, left. He still has BHOP..

I have said this for months and its coming true now, the PBC more then overplayed their hands at the beginning. Boxing in general has been mismanaged and its coming back to haunt them right now.

Everyone is right about boxing in general needs to take a page from the UFC and have more then one big fight on a PPV. We all knew that the Money May/ Pac fight was an end of a era fight. With the amount of money flying around that night, there is NO reason why all 3 undercard fights didnt have 6 stars that were to usher us into the next 5 years or so. Mayweather and Pacquiao would not have missed a couple of million a piece so they can pay others to have 3 crazy, action fights where 3-6 fighters were built on a PPV with MILLIONS and MILLIONS of eyes to boost their exposure. However....

Just like where PBC is caught at this point, the big problem is these fighters arent trying to go back in pay after having all that money thrown at them in these early PBC fights. The PBC didnt plan long-term at all. Just throwing $1 million or so a fight for those early Danny Garcia/B-level fights arent the business, when you dont have a plan to make sure you have $1.5 million for him to fight an A-level fighter down the line. He isnt gonna take less money for these fights (and I dont blame him). However, that keeps Garcia (and the rest of these top PBC fighters) on the shelf, and devoids us of many good fights.

Boxing needs to change their planning and budget fast. Throwing too much money at mediocre fighters. Problem is Im not sure whats the best solution. These fighters arent fighters from the 70s and 80s and fighting for the love of the sport.

There are many other problems that we can get into later about boxing. Bottome line is: we are in trouble, boxing brehs.

Ok I'm back...

I honestly don't care either way. I just want to see good fights and if PBC can't do that becuz they may have blown most of their budget then, oh well

And here's why I say that... Promotion companies have come and gone. It just so happens that some have stuck around longer than others have and unfortunately some we just love to hate are still here. This isn't the first time a company has blown thru many by "overpaying" fighters and spending a ridiculous amount on presentation. There was a guy doing this back in the late 70s early 80s. I remember Teddy Atlas talking about him about a year ago. Dude was paying fighters insane amounts of money but the product was terrible and he eventually went under. The shyt happens. shyt... if GBP can't manage with it's small lineup and they somehow go under then on to the next one. I am fan of the sport. I am a fan of the fighters. I could careless who represents them. I just want to see a good fight and I want to know if the guys are being taken care of.


This is PBC 2014 all over again. The thing is, can they produce a 2017 like they did a 2015?

 

[TheNig]

there is NO reason why all 3 undercard fights didnt have 6 stars that were to usher us into the next 5 years or so.

The reason why there wasn't big fights on the undercard was becuz they wanted a majority of the money going to the fight the people wanted to see. From a business standpoint, it makes perfect sense. As a fan it was pretty damn disappointing.
