    :lol::rofl What was Haymon thinking? Lara vs Cotto's leftovers?

    Beterbiev should be the main event, he will deliver another brutal KO with Szpilka as co-feature as Chicago has a large Polish community

    True, and Lara is seldom in an entertaining fight. However, the fight with Angulo was fun to watch.

    Maybe you should put up you own dough. That way you can decide who should be headlining a card.

    It would be silly to have Beterbiev, a man with 8 professional fights, as the main event over Lara. Lara has been in bigger fights. If Haymon didn't know how to think he would be in your position.

    ...number of fights dictates who is main event?
    Man, someone should have told Teiken that Murata shouldn't have been the main event in his last show...or told Ohashi that Inoue Vs Hernandez shouldn't have been the main considering Inoue had only fought 5 times...

    On the flip side...Lara probably should be the main event, but NOT due to the number of fights!

    Who the f*ck is Beterbiev? He is literally an unknown to the casual viewer. Lara on the other hand has fought big names and deserves top billing

    Lara is more famous and probably the better boxer, but Beterbiev is more exciting. I don't care what order they fight. I'll watch both fights.

    Waddel and Reed,the investment bankers who are in charge of financing has reported that Haymon has spent 143 MILLION dollars to date.What the hell is his end game and how is he going to recoup the money spent?Mayweather is not going to be around forever but Haymon better hope that he fights a few more times after his Showtime contract is up.:deal
