    It was sarcastic mate, but Kim actually believes that crap (or at least gets paid to say he does).

    Journalists in reputable positions should be even handed. The sport benefits from operating that way. Not from choosing sides and taking swipes at the opposition. We're all in this together, the media should act like it.

    Which is criminal really as boxers lose out in the end.

    Steve Kim's ill comments only serve to make the boxers Al Haymon look bad. They lose out which is unfair.

    If you're going to hate on the likes of Al Haymon do it to everyone that operates in a similar way such as Al Haymon, Sauderland, Frank ******... etc the list is endless. Nitpicking is juvenile.

    Of course he's a TR shill but he's on point on this. Russell badly needs to step up, he's obviously able. Why would you support his matchmaking? He's not Wilder, he's way more advanced. And if you gonna put him in 8 rounders with TBAs, fine, do it off premium TV slots.

    the **** on haymon is that he has a stable of fighter yet doesn't carry the promotional risk/burden. thats the difference between arum and haymon. haymon thus needs to latch onto someone like gbp.

    He was being sarcastic because Top Rank is only doing the show there cause of the low taxes and site fees even though that means it's on HBO2

    Russell doesn't help Russell's recognition. When he's actually in the ring with a live body and performs up to par, he will get his due rewards. Nothing wrong with someone calling out a fighter on soft touches. Wish it was done more often.

    :good Agreed, Russell has a lot of potential but it has been wasted so far because he hasn't faced any sort of test yet.

    Frank had him but TBA jumped ship like every other one of Frank's fighters have over the last few months :lol:
