    He is a manager/advisor, and not a promotor, though. . .

    For managers, he's definitely getting a good name, and reputation for himself in the US. . . He's not quite as established as Dunkin, and Haymon, but he is the one who found Martinez fighting retired bull matadors in Spain for 200 euros, and brought him to the US, and showed him to Dibella. . . That really got him the attention. .

    He's got some other good boxers too. . . Can't think of all, but I know he's got Magomed Abdusalamov, Victor Cayo, and I think Gabriel Campillo. . .

    :nono Do not appreciate the sarcasm. . .


    Lol, nah Khan just keeps his promotional company as a way to keep a little bit extra of the cut, and for tax reasons.

    True. . I sense he's a true self-made man as well. . . He didn't have any inside connections initially like Haymon - whose best friend from his college days at Harvard became a head honcho over at HBO. . . He had an eye for talent, and had to really micro-manage.

    Promoter/manager whatever he is, Al Haymon is pretty much running the show at the moment. He's got serious pulling power it seems and makes sure his fighters get paid top dollar.
