Haymon Fighter Activity in 2016:
This is unacceptable imo. So many fighters, so little of them actually fight and worse, the best rarely fight the best (frampton vs santa cruz is a good example of what they should be doing with all their fighters like thurman vs garcia etc etc). Anyways, I don't think anyone is holding their breath, just skeptical that anything will change since nothing that people promised or imagined has been delivered so far. Very underwhelmed with PBC thus far and I've been shown nothing to make believe vast improvements will come.

I don't agree though that he thought it would be easy, I think things are pretty much going the only way they could go. Haymon is a successful guy I can't think that he would think hey lets throw boxing on TV and it will all just work out great. He knew this path would be difficult, he might have hoped it would go a bit better but I don't think he was under any sort of illusion about this being a really long term project.
I mean if you put an ounce of reasonable thought into how one would do what Haymon is allegedly attempting you'd easily see this is a long term plan with several stages. No one on the planet was going to take any amount of money and throw it into boxing and "take it over" in the 18 or so months PBC has been around or the next 2 or 3 more years PBC will be around based on their initial plan.
This is gonna take awhile folks regardless if it's a success or failure.

Your the type of ****** to gloat about how a fighter makes alot of money instead of meaningful fights. ****ing dumbass. Always posting stupid ****. But i guess anything to protect and defend yo mass haymon
I defend fighters IN GENERAL my opinion was the same for Nicholas Walters when the Lomachenko fight didn't happen the first time. Why the fuk wouldn't anybody try to make the most money they can every time they fight in such a dangerous sport!

How much did Zerafa made in the Quillin fight? Did you care when he got dropped and placed on a stretcher?

Originally posted by BreWall View PostThat's what you think. In reality, you're only focused on certain fighters. What about the Salkas of the world who make Haymon fighters look good but make a fraction of the money? You even defended it saying Garcia shouldn't be obligated to take riskier fights all the time. Did you care about Salka's well being? No.

On the Flip side, I do think Broner and Garcia trying to demand so much money from Pacquiao is a JOKE and I have posted that as well. You take what you get for that opportunity and if they win they would be able demand what ever they want after that fight. But AGAIN, they have that right to set their own prices in their Profession, basically like a bunch of Freelance Workers
So do I agree with it and am I happy about it as a boxing fans? FUK NO! Because it does make it difficult to see the fights I want to see but I'm not Naive, fighters are not listening to us the fans and neither are their Promoters and Managers, they're all in it for the MONEY that is Priority #1 for all of them...ALL OF THEM!

Maybe that mentality explains why Asian-Americans (on average) earn More than white Americans, are less incarcerated than whites, And are More Educated than whites. But I dont hear my Caucasian friends complain about "Asian privilege", now do I? Also many Asian-Americans dont even have English as their first language (it's my 3rd) but we dont make excuses, unlike SOME (not all) people of other races. We work hard and are now (on average) more successful than the majority race in this country. That's what happens when u work hard and stop crying "race" about every little thing.
My wife is a Filipino-American (obviously big Manny fan ). English is her 6th language. Yes, 6th. And she is more conservative than even me. We are patriotic Americans who LOVE this country, And would do anything for our flag and country. Even my wife, who is a big Manny fan, roots for Manny unless he Fights an American. She Says that since she is an American now, she would never root against our flag. She actually supported Floyd over him. Oh NO!

PBC is dead already, all it needs is someone to bury it completely, garcia fighting his next bum opponent will probably be final nail in coffin
