Khan Has Left Al Haymon!

i don't have twitter. plus i'm not tough enough to be from philly. fixed it for you bro :boxing:

Ouch that's big loss for Al Haymon. I say good job khan, if you feel shortchanged never hesitate to go for a greener pasture; --because life is too short and a boxer's peak/prime years is even shorter. Seize the day!

Cotto chose to fight Margarito instead of Williams (a year after Williams had beaten Margs), call it a duck if you like. Margarito went on to get a few wins, Cotto beat Mosley and ultimately it was the easier fight to make for Top Rank - Williams ended up going to middleweight immediately after. It was obviously the preferred choice by TR, altho I thought they were both (Margarito and Williams) legit threats to Cotto anyway. When Williams rematched Quintana, Mosley's career had long hit its peak and was dwindling south, having taken an L to Cotto already. I really don't recall people asking to see that for it to be considered a duck. And Pacquiao wasn't even a welterweight when Paul was at 147, ya dummy. 2006-2008 were Williams' prominent years at welter and then 2009 he was fighting Winky Wright and Sergio Martinez. Fact is, Floyd asked his fans who Margarito was and they said they didn't know, and he never asked them about Paul Williams. But let's not pretend Williams and Floyd didn't have the same manager and as if that fight couldn't have been made instantly if Floyd chose to. Unfortunately for Paul he had to move to a different division to get fights. Since floyd was such a big star and williams frame was eye popping,that alone would sell that fight .imagine the promo. David vs goliath. That would have sold 1.3 mill easy

Did cotto,Pacquiao, and mosley duck Paul williams too? Cause they damn sure didn't fight him either. Don't be a hypocrite Cotto did. .mosley might have,but shane was shot and old anyways. Pac didnt imo. Plus the haymon thing was between them . Paul always said he wanted floyd and felt haymon steered him away . Floyd didnt want want none of a man who was taller and had a bigger reach. Is what it is.

Don't blame Khan. He's been sold cr*ap about a prospective Mayweather bout for too long. Hopefully this will free him up to fight Brook and other non-Haymon WWs. "Free him up" - there was no impediment to him fighting Brook. Algieri was a non-Haymon fighter. Stop making excuses that aren't there.

There goes that theory that you can't leave Haymon. Sucks for Khan, but at least he isn't being forced to sign contract extension after contract extension. Best of luck to the guy. Hopefully he learns to not speak out so much before anything gets signed.

I expect thurman and Lara to leave next. Both have been steered away. Just like paul williams was . Floyd ducked paul Did cotto,Pacquiao, and mosley duck Paul williams too? Cause they damn sure didn't fight him either. Don't be a hypocrite

Imagine he ends up signing with Hearn in some sort of co-promotion deal? :lol1: Lol I can see it, they can market him really well too; especially if he beats Brook

I hope he has left Haymon, Khan has fought some of the best guys around in his own era and mostly won, sometimes against the odds. He's 28 now and is no spring chicken and he needs the guys that will advise him honestly, get him the best fights for the best possible money. The Garcia rematch is still relevant but he will be prepped for Mayweather in a year or sos time but the Peterson rematch is a joke. The guy shouldn't even be a title holder and is a drugs cheat who squandered the first go round at a rematch. I'm hoping this clears the way for Khan to work with HBO again, so we can get the Bradley fight.

Is he stil using other peoples money? Waddell & Reed...so quite literally other peoples money.

How does one go about leaving Al Haymon anyway? Are they locked in forever? What's the deal with it? Al Haymon is like the go to guy in Boxing now. Everyone wants Al Haymon as their advisor. I just dont get how he gets million dollar paydays for all his top welters. Is he stil using other peoples money?

According to Boxingscene who spoke to Amir Khan recently, this is not true. Time to change the thread title...
