FNF averaged about 400,000 and that was a little down from previous years. However, they rarely went above 700,000 viewers.
According to the Credit Suisse report, WDR's flagship Asset Strategy Fund has underperformed its peer group in both 2015 and 2014, and also posted mid-single digit negative returns in both years.
The problem with the PBC is that Al Haymon doesn't allow his boxers to fight opponents who aren't signed to Al Haymon. On the other hand, Bob Arum's fighters often fight opponents who aren't signed to Bob Arum. Kathy Duva and Oscar also allow their fighters to fight against opponents who are signed to someone else. Al Haymon wants to create his own boxing world, but it's destined to fail, because for every "champion" he has, there's a real champion breathing down his neck, and the fans inevitably find out about it. So the PBC can tell everyone that Wilder, Stevenson, and Jacobs are "world champions", but eventually the public finds out about Fury, Kovalev and Golovkin when they call out those phony champs for a unification.
Their managers aren't ever going to accept a purse bid though, because they know Haymon will bid more, so that's that.
I didn't realize that Eddie Hearn's fighters, Kathy Duva's fighters, Don King's fighters, Bob Arum's fighters, etc., were signed to Al Haymon. They've all been on shows competing with Haymon's fighters in the last year.
That's not true. They averaged 340,000 viewers the year before. Their average jumped to 390,000 essentially because of ONE SHOW which drew 900,000 - Stiverne-Arreaola - which Haymon was behind. That's why they decided to do business with him. Because he delivered ratings everybody else they were working with couldn't. So they signed with him, and their last two shows averaged a 1.2 million viewers. A lot better than a 340,000 average. A 300% to 400% increase in viewership.
Haymon fighters often fight with Hearn fighters who aren't all signed with him. Also there HAVE been fights between Haymon fighters and those mentioned promoters, when sanctioning bodies have ordered them. Glaskov was a Duva fighter Chilemba was a Duva fighter Shafikov was an Arum fighter Linares is a GBP fighter and will soon be fighting Zlaticarin I think those other promoters bare some blame too. Arum has come out and said that he never wants to deal with Haymon. Its not Haymon who is suing TR and GBP after all
I only know about Hearns fighters but the guys on PBC are 'advised by Haymon' or there announcement to be has quickly followed their fight james degale lee selby maybe jamie mcdonnell is an exception
Glazkov fought a Haymon fighter and hes with Duva Shafikov fought a Haymon fighter and hes with Arum Chilemba fought a Haymon fighter and hes with Duva Its actually happened quite a bit
