Why is Al Haymon accused of rigging fights

The business of Boxing has always been corrupt! casual fans need to know the history of prizefighting, Hate it or love it boxing will always have a black eye so to speak just look where the "sport" came from and where its at today?

That 15 million is way off. The net worth site is way off. Haymon is very rich. Probably up in the Don King and Arum leagues. Before he even got into boxing he was a big concert promoter. Hell he probably got 15 million from management fees from Floyd alone this year.

.In the Ishe Smith/Carlos Molina fight,Molina won a disputed decision,and that was fought on a Mayweather Promotions/Goldenboy Promotions fight where Al Haymon is the business adviser to Floyd.Badou Jack-whose on Mayweather promotions-got a draw against Marco Antonio Periban and most people-including myself-felt that Badou Jack deserved the decision. What does Haymon have to do with Smith? He's not getting paid by Smith. Why should he care? Yeah I was gonna say. Ishe Smith and Badou Jack are afaik not Al Haymon fighters.

you don't know what your talking about...15 million net worth is all the money in the world to rig boxing matches???...your bubby bob arum might have more say in fixing fights then you care to know my friend... http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/sports/boxing/2004-01-09-arum-investigation_x.htm http://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-athletes/richest-boxers/al-haymon-net-worth/ http://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-athletes/richest-boxers/bob-arum-net-worth/ You don't need millions to pay a judge off. Judges aren't paid millions, nor hundreds-of-thousands of dollars. And lets not act like it's only Haymon's pocket that'll be dug into. It's fairly large entourage. Net worths are only public money placed on top of an iceberg any how. And I love how you just randomly call Bob Arum my buddy as if I implied Haymon was the only one guilty.... In fact, what does Bob Arum have to do with Haymon? Completely irrelevant. Know what they call that? Straw man arguments.

You guys should know by now. Whenever a heavy favorite is in a close fight people always side with the underdog then cry robbery. Although tonights scores were pretty crappy See Castillo vs Mayweather Malignaggi vs. Broner Maidana vs Khan Morales vs. Maidana

Williams-Lara?

Haymon isn't filthy rich but he knows entertainment and follows a strict blue print to build boxing stars. The networks the real money players in the sport love stars and in turn love Haymon. They do all the promotion and lay the ground work in the publics mind who has the better skills and who should win. The marketing more than anything sways the judges. The judges all have preconceived notions going into every bout. Mainly fed to them by the networks.

evertime a decision don`t go the way some people felt it should go(or wanted it to go).Al Haymon is a manager, he don`t have as much control of a fight as a promoter do.Both Gabe Rosado and Kid Chocolate are signed to Goldenboy.Goldenboy have far more control of a fight then Haymon does.In the Ishe Smith/Carlos Molina fight,Molina won a disputed decision,and that was fought on a Mayweather Promotions/Goldenboy Promotions fight where Al Haymon is the business adviser to Floyd.Badou Jack-whose on Mayweather promotions-got a draw against Marco Antonio Periban and most people-including myself-felt that Badou Jack deserved the decision. Russell Peltz promotes Rosado

Because for some crazy reason, 9 and a half times outta 10 Haymon fighters dont get raw deals.

What does Haymon have to do with Smith? He's not getting paid by Smith. Why should he care?

The scores at the end of the quillin rosado fight say plenty.

You don't need to be a promoter to sway a fight. You need to have money In boxing: Money = Influence Haymon is manager of THE biggest names in the sport. He has all the money in the world. His boxers are just investments. Notice how he always has undefeated records under his banner? Because they're marketable. Which, in turn, makes their records all the more fragile. If a fight gets close, he has the $$$ to influence the decision in his fighters favor to protect that "0". you don't know what your talking about...15 million net worth is all the money in the world to rig boxing matches???...your bubby bob arum might have more say in fixing fights then you care to know my friend... http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/sports/boxing/2004-01-09-arum-investigation_x.htm http://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-athletes/richest-boxers/al-haymon-net-worth/ http://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-athletes/richest-boxers/bob-arum-net-worth/

I`m far from new to boxing.And Haymon does not have as much control of a fight as a promoter does. That shows how little you know about it even though you're "far from new...". The person with most control over the boxer is his MANAGER. By virtue of his position, he is bound hand and foot to protect the fighter in every and any situation, and work only to his best advantage, representing his best interests when deciding to either accept, or advise the fighter to accept a fight. He negotiates with the promoter. The promoter has a sort of oblique control by deciding to use the fighter or not. But at the same time, the promoter is, by CONTRACT, obligated to make a specific number of bouts for the fighter, and at a contractually agreed minimum. The story about Haymon is that he is NOT a manager but an "advisor". His dark aura of Richlieu-like mystique gives him a reputation of having immense power. You guys could easily look up the duties and obligations of managers, advisors and promoters on the internet. I did it a few years ago, and the above is what I read therein.

Haymon is a shadowy figure who wields a lot of influence in a very dirty and corrupt sport plus people just dig conspiracy theories. In short Haymon is a conspiracy theorist's wet dream

Al Haymon is evil because of his main star; his fighters get no more benifit of the doubt than any other fighters fom other promotional companies.
