    Whats the point when 80 percent of the fights are **** matchups.

    Until i see otherwise this is just fracturing boxing more and keeping many good fights from happening.

    Hope it turns into something good, and its exciting times, great potential, but right now I just see the market getting flooded by an inferior product, which in the end isnt good for boxing.

    Quality over quantity.

    Shouldnt Haymon have fixed the matchmaking and platform on the other channels first, before expanding yet again and using money to push good boxing off other networks?

    This has red ink written all over it.Spending other peoples money like there is no tomorrow is a recipe for disaster.Where do I find lenders like this to hit up with there being no hope once so ever of a return?

    It will be thrown out soon. DLH was just made because his company is crumbling.

    You think? I can't imagine that Haymon's trick to just rename his function to adviser turns out to be a working loophole to evade a law. :conf

    I highly doubt that Haymon forgot about the Ali Act and did not form a plan to keep himself secure.
    But it would be ****ing hilarious :lol:
    (i am a tad bit worried for the 100+ boxers he has under his wing)

    I said this before that Haymon is going for the UFC model with all the fighters under one umbrella. Its much needed in boxing. Hell you have a guy who could be 17-10 in the ufc and be considered a legend in the sport but a guy like GGG could take one loss and get called a hype job or exposed.

    Haymon I believe will make the fights we want to see.
