    Fighting on equal footing without judges in his corner and the option to filter out dangerous opponents will impact his future fights.

    He isn’t laundering any money. Haymom is flat out stealing the money. He gets a cut of the money. The bigger the purse the better his percentage. Doesn’t matter if Showtime or the venture capital is losing money.

    Who the hell isn't taking money? I haven't heard if anyfight pro.oter thay wasn't accused of something that wasn't in a legal contract. King, Arum, Warren, Hearn, White, Haymon , etc, pay you what you negotiate and not what you deserve. As far as Haymons " investors" we really don't know **** about it. Its been nearly 6 years and people still on that **** when no one has complained, sued, or come public.

    Yes I think he can win, he can really box ,of course he might have to win 11 rounds to get a split decision.

    I always felt that Haymon was just scamming networks.
    He got guys like Berto millions for **** fights, while taking a nice cut for himself.

    He bled that fund dry and now has big deals with FOX and SHO.
    I imagine Haymon still takes a cut per fight.

    It seems outside of the ring none of the other fighters like or respect Oscar at all.... Garcia will bail on him next.

    Canelo a free agent? He's not bringing Oscar's judges with him, is he?
