    Yeah, he's technically still 'in charge' of everything. Duboef is the acting President.

    Al Haymon maximizes earning potential for his fighters depending on where they are at in their career and gets a taste. GBP still writes the checks and recieves the checks from the Networks and PPVs and Arenas.

    Without Haymon, GBP would still be in business doing shows.

    Without GBP, Haymon would have to find a partner to do business.

    It's either Arum or Don King. King had the sport by the balls from the mid 70s up until 6 or 7 years ago. Arum was always a big figure but didn't really take the top spot until the 2000s.

    How many fights would GBP have to put on to equal the revenue from ONE Pac-Marquez fight?

    Puh-leeze.

    And in Don King's day, a top HW bout grossed maybe 20-30 million. Today it's in the hundreds of millions.

    You're comparing that to the 5 decades that King and Arum have been sucking the millions of dollars out of boxing? King and Arum have been making millions off of boxing since before most of the people in Goldenboy were even born.
