    Maybe because Haye will continue to be a big draw after Hatton retires. The youngsters want to be on a big card, live on HBO, not just payed well. Perhaps they think they'll make more money long-term. Honestly, I don't know.

    Because Ricky and his dad are ****s.

    Haye has got the momentum with him at the moment. He's giving it large, getting a lot of press behind his own career and its filtering off onto his promotional outfit. There is a feeling this is the future for British boxing promotion.

    Once he gets one or two promising prospects signed up the thing becomes more and more enticing for others and the job gets easier.

    See the thing is a shitload of big name fighters have promotional companies, yet they are just names, nothing more. Winky Wright has Winky promotions, Mayweather has his, hatton has his.

    They are essentially copying DLH, yet putting **** all into their 'companies'. Whereas Hayemaker is actually going about its business, largely because of Adam Booth it would seem.

    Yeah you are right

    They make up these companies to promote there own fights, therefore they get promoters money as well as there purse etc...

    Probably saves a **** load of tax going through the company account not that im an accoutant or anything :lol:

    Well I am all for boxers getting money rather than promoters. Providing they do a good job which considering it is thier own name they are promoting they deserve all the wonga they can get. Maybe this kind of promoting signals the end for people like Frank Warren!!! We can only hope. ;)

    Hayes promotions are still a unproven quantity

    Fighters should not get carried away signing their life away to David Haye and his ego maniac friend Adam Booth.

    Lets see what their deliever - as of yet nothing.

    But fair play if they want to have a crack at it - they are entitled to do it as much as anyone else

    But as Frank Warren said recently the problem Haye had in finding his own opponnet is the tip of the iceberg

    promotion is quite a difficult job with lots of nasty twists and turns

    Warren is Skeptical of Haye as a promoter and suggests he will find out the hard way it is a tough job

    if it was a easy job - every fighter would be a successful promoter

    Warren has seen them all come and go over the years

    the one that stands out in recent times is Oscar De La Hoya - however he is one of the most celebrated and richest fighters in history with alot of clout in the sport in America - most cant compete with him

    Hayemaker is also tied to Golden Boy, Schaeffer helps them out a lot. Dave Coldwell is the main man at Hayemaker Boxing.
