    :happy

    Al Haymon is literally bringing boxing back into the public eye. Now everyone can enjoy great fights without paying a single penny!! :oops:

    There are some great fights on the horizon and it's going to be nothing short of amazing. :good

    Hail Haymon!

    Agreed, I guess we should wait to see how it plays out first

    My guess is with the big stable and everything his way we may see him make the big matches

    It's mostly just pac fans finding a way to complain about anyone that has a connection to Floyd.

    Haymon is a scumbag, but I'm happy there are more matches on TV. Although I do think the quality of the matches will drop off quite a lot after he has his product established.

    How is he a scumbag? :huh

    He gets his fighters what they're worth, he isn't like someone like Arum/King who rips off their fighters.

    Al cares about the sport!!! :yep

    Most managers, agents and promoters are scumbags, I'm a socialist, I'm pro worker and usually always go against the man, I'm not too fond of Arum either.
    Al is a money grubbing creep just like the rest.

    But how? If he was a money grabbing creep, his fighters would be making very poor money, but that isn't the case.

    He's trying to bring boxing back to the public and that's all we should really care about.

    He's helping the public, own boxers. Obviously he should get paid as well for his services, he in no circumstances should be doing it for free. :yep
