    Al Haymon is a smart guy. Studied Economics at Harvard; and he has thus gotten several major networks to collectively fund him $400 million.

    Clearly this guy's plan is convincing if he's able to talk major corporations into funding his ideas; does anyone else think his goal is to bring boxing back to mainstream terrestrial television, and eventually do away with PPV? It looks that way IMO.

    Should have been a thing of the past 10 years ago with the rise of the internet.

    If buying a PPV means I get to to see THE BEST face each other, or he gets rid of it and we have to see his mismatches, I'll take the former anyway of the week!

    I'd pay money to see Leimuex/Golovkin over Garcia/Malignaggi for free.
