Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Any Al Haymon Fighter Is Going To Be a Problem For Making Fights

[Jab jab boom]

Did you just give PBC credit for Fury v Wilder when Top Rank did almost everything?

Was Wilder a pbc fighter? Was the fight not jointly streamed on espn for top rank and fox sports for pbc? Did pbc affiliate fox sports not have episodes of “inside fury vs wilder 3” on “pbc on fox” ? Ok.

Protected Boys Club. Fishnets is right on this one.

GBP Hoya is not aware Haymon is having problems in his own house. Uncle Al can't even make his own fighters fight each other. Jaron Ennis can't get any fights. Thurman says no. Stanionis is possibly saying no as well. Tank Davis wants retirement money for the Pitbull rematch. Charlo won't fight Benavidez. Morrell stopped mentioning David's name. Spence/Crawford is still nowhere near made, etc.

That's the bottom line here. Most times bucks always stop with the fighter.
Most of these PBC fighters hide behind uncle Al's skirt.

In reality they can accept offers outside it they really want to.
Thurman and others admitted it themselves they're free to fight anywhere.
Wilder said it as well. Why else does Deontay have to wax poetic about loyalty?

You can also ask Luis Ortiz if there are restrictions accepting offers outside of the PBC house.
There are none.

Luis Ortiz was a bad example. He was literally blocked from taking the biggest purse in his career vs AJ.

As we knew, no Davis-Garcia fight.

Al Haymon and PBC are trash. They ruined boxing. They don't make fights with anyone, and not even with themselves. He has a stable full of great fighters and they all avoid each other because they are all afraid of losing. At least ODLH has the balls to make fights that are worth seeing.

People really just like to hear themselves talk when they say ****** stuff like this.

What great fights has Oscar made ?

Pretty much every 154lbr at PBC has fought each other, resulting in a full unification in a TON of great fights including Lara v Hurd. Hurd v Harrison. Harrison v Charlo 1/2. Castano. Even Lubin and Fundora have fought each other. J-Rock, Resario, and whoever else I am missing. Charlo and Castano fought each other twice in their two MOST RECENT fights !

at 147, Spence has fought Ugas, Porter, Garcia, and was scheduled for Pacqiuao.

Thurman fought Pac, Garcia, Porter.

Porter fought Ugas.

at Heavy, Wilder fought Ortiz twice. Fury thrice. ALL 5 of them were GREAT FIGHTS with knockdowns and knockouts.

I don't understand you people ! The vast majority of the fights I referenced were damn good scraps, especially the ones with Wilder and the guys at 154. Even Fundora and Lubin was a great one. You people are weird.

Oh how we miss the days of Bob Arum and Don King? Those two collaborated and produced some of the most memorable cards and matchups in boxing history.

Oscar is an idiot. But it’s no secret that PBC does not do business outside their stable if they don’t have to

[champion4ever]

The PBC has the largest roster and talent pool of fighters in the sport of boxing today. Therefore, Golden Boy and Oscar De La Hoya should merge with Al Haymon and the PBC in order to make these fights happen. He made a huge mistake in signing with DAZN.

Great fights,boxers were getting robbed by promoters, died broke in and out the ring and it was all legal. Now we just get robbed of good fights. Fans demanding that Gatti and Ward got 1M was the begining of the end. /s
