It is well known in boxing circles that Haymon acts as a promoter for most of his fighters, which violates the Muhammad Ali Act. There are some fighters he just strictly manages like Adrien Broner.
His primary issue is talent evaluation, IMHO. He's a good enough promoter but he just doesn't have a compelling product to market to the masses...besides himself of course. Jessie Vargas might turn out to be a hell of a fighter but do you really want him to be the crown jewel of your company? Probably not...
Maybe he will advise, who knows. Obviously the set up must be good enough for boxers managers to say its a good idea to join. They could be following a blueprint set out by Haymon. Or he could be acting anon in the company to avoid the need for a promotional licence. He is "the ghost" after all.
you can have a promoter and have Haymon as a promoter. That's the case with EVERY SINGLE CLIENT Haymon has except Floyd who has his on promotion company. Plus Haymon doesn't have a promotion's licence so he's not violating anything. He may act like a promoter, but he's not one technically.
Prince, it clearly say...'He also ended his professional relationship with the very powerful Al Haymon.' Then Dirrell is quoted as saying, " So I left him respectfully." :huh Where did we read wrong?
The article states he "left" Al Haymon to "join" TMT Promotions, somehow implying that Haymon was promoting him, but some people in here are saying Haymon does not have a promoters license, rather he just acts as a promoter. So something is kinda weird about that.
Al was his manager AL does not have a promoter license. He left Al to be managed by his uncle. Months later he had a meeting with Floyd and 50 that resulted in him signing with TMT promotions.
