Haymon-ROBIN HOOd

Haymon seems like a scum bag him and scheafer Thats very true

It's funny as **** seeing all you weirdos being so afraid of PBC succeeding. Spending night and day trying to convince yourselves :lol1: I cant wait for Vargas to put Thurman to sleep lol

Haymon is a scoundrel who came to boxing from the corrupt music business. His top fighters outside of Floyd--Thurman, Garcia, Porter, Broner, Stevenson, Wilder--none of them have earned more than $2M per fight. Titles are great, but not if you aren't defending them often enough and against equally matched opponents. Robin Hood stole from the rich and gave to the poor. Haymon stole from the rich to make himself rich.

You said Haymon was “as dodgy as they come.” I don’t need to point any details that you have no trust in the guy... unless of course by dodgy you mean he’s doing great things... Not Haymon in particular. All promoters. It's a dodgy business, as is the music biz. Unless you think Al succeeded by being a choirboy? 'Great things' huh? I'm not seeing much different to any other promoter except that Als a bit more opaque in his business deals than most. But hell, if you think the guy's doing something special I ain't gonna try to change your mind. History, as ever, will be the judge. Just in case you're under the impression that I've got something against Haymon, I don't. Indeed, I hope his ventures succceed in bringing more and better boxing matches to our screens. I just ain't buying into the idea that he's some kinda saint or saviour of boxing though. You can, if you like.

I don't believe Robin Hood got rich himself. Well said. Heymon is clearly in this for his own career and wealth....he is no Robin Hood.... regardless of how he treats his fighters.

What’s so hard to believe that Haymon’s mgmt advisory helps boxers for the better. Unlike Arum, who throws fighters are usually thrown under the bus, priority runs low, no fights, and then you see hear industry reporting that his boxers want out. Martirosyan was more active under Haymon, but as of late when he cried about his schedule, he left....It’s Vanes fault he couldn’t capitalize in beating Lara in the rematch, with Haymon giving him that opportunity ffs... Or be like Nicholas Walters...gets a DRAW with Sosa... and low and behold the classic rudimentary and awkward matchmaking from Top Rank that Walters is shelved... Sosa fights Loma... they strategically move their fighters around for their own profitable gain like expendable assets. That’s the reality of Top Rank. They could’ve continued giving Walters fights while also giving Loma fights, providing more revenue for TR. At least Haymon has a better pool of matchmaking, and his cards on Showtime, which imo Al Bernstein and Paulie are huge collaborators to request the stacked cards on Showtime. Showtime’s Championship cards are among the purist cookies in the sport. Oddly enough, Lara, usually the main event, can be a sleeper...I did enjoy his fight against that other Olympian doe, Gausha. Interesting chessmatch doe a snoozer As ever, your point eludes me. Did I say that Haymon was worse than Arum either as a human being or at putting fights together?

:rofl: Robin Hood huh? Why not Saint Alan while we're at it? The guy's a boxing promoter... oh, sorry, uh.. manager... I mean 'adviser'... and that basically means he's as dodgy as they come. Said without prejudice because I honestly have no idea whether he's better or worse than the rest of them, whatever rumour may suggest. His fighters say they're well looked after in the main, though, which is most likely a good thing, even if I find something a little creepy about the effusive praise some of them heap upon him.

PBC has more world champions than any other managerial or promotional entity in all of boxing. PBC has a near monopoly on Showtime Championship Boxing and Showtime has the largest budget in US boxing and possibly the world. PBC has a monopoly on FOX and FS1. PBC is in the strongest position of any managerial or promotional entity in US boxing and possibly the world. Haymon has way more power, way more world champions, way more dates and a way larger TV budget to work with than he had before PBC started. So how exactly is PBC not a success? And Haymon's power CONTINUES to grow, his number of world champions CONTINUES to grow, his number of dates CONTINUES to grow, the TV budget CONTINUES to grow. He's just getting started. I hop e so-----

He didn't even really need to believe PBC would succeed PBC has more world champions than any other managerial or promotional entity in all of boxing.

Hay on paid himself. Fighters got paid, but lack of fights... so their pay days were less frequent. He did screw everyone else including investors and boxing fans
