Boxing fans across the world tuned into Super Bowl XLIX in wishful anticipation for the announcement of the fight we've all been waiting for, Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao. To no avail, wishful thinking gave way to one of the most memorable football games in Super Bowl History. With the debut of Premier Boxing Champions on NBC right around the corner, why did Al Haymon pass up on the opportunity to promote his new endeavor to the largest audience in American television history? Host Kenny Keith looks for answers. Al Haymon aspires to bring boxing back to the masses through network television. Can a sport as violent and corrupt as boxing survive the power of political correctness that has taken hold of the mainstream media? Boxing finds itself in an enormous transition with endless questions to answer and many of its' most influential characters under heavy scrutiny. Will boxing thrive or will it fracture further? All of these pressing questions and much, much more on a very special Super Bowl edition of the Tale of the Tape boxing podcast on TheBoxingRant.com Listen to The Boxing Rant exclusively on Patreon!
