PBC: The Next Round is the branding[1] used for monthly Premier Boxing Champions cards[2][3] broadcast on the Bounce TV[4] digital multicast network.

Coverage overview

On May 7, 2015, Bounce TV announced that they would be airing live boxing events from Premier Boxing Champions. Rather than having the broadcasters pay the promotion a rights fee, the telecasts are brokered by Al Haymon[5] to the networks in exchange for a cut of advertising revenue. Bounce's first PBC card aired on August 2, 2015.[6] The inaugural live telecast delivered 459,000 total viewers[7] and averaged 333,000 households between 9:00 p.m.-12:15 a.m. It hit a peak audience of 667,000 total viewers and 444,000 households.

This wasn't the first time that Bounce carried boxing events. In 2012, Bounce carried World Boxing Association (WBA) Title matches and undercards.[8][9]

Notable bouts

The inaugural card[10] consisted of a four-man super welterweight tournament, John Jackson winning a 10-round unanimous decision over Dennis Laurente. The second tournament bout featured Jorge Cota defeating Yudel Johnson. In the main event, Juan Carlos Payano defeated Rau'shee Warren[11] in a close, 12-round split decision to retain his Bantamweight Title.
