    Boxing wise at least King loved money, also Arum seems like he has the evil in him to

    Don King, Main Events, Thompson Boxing, bring on more Promoters and more fighters, whatever helps share the spotlight and gives other guys more opportunities, I see it as a win.


    And now these guys are actually gonna have to compete with fans.

    HBO has spent DECADES demeaning fighters like RJJ and FMJ. Why? They were the only game in town. Now that Showtime is on the scene? Their chickens came home to roost!

    Instead of taking a long look in the mirror and understanding why these guys left they decide to play hardball. I have a strange feeling this will blow up in HBO's face.

    HBO seems to be the fight fans network. With fights like Bradley vs Provodnikov and Rios Alvarado, Showtime can only dream of having fights like that on their network with Golden Boy. I mean, they've allowed farce of fights like Canelo vs Josesito Lopez. Haymon clients don't fight strong opposition, making dull fights for the most part.
