    Haymon probably suffers from anxiety, or whatever that phobia is being in public. He used to be a regular at HBO boxing HQ and appeared in the business. You Can even see him in the row at the Ortiz vs Berto fight. Something happened when HBO fired him.
    He probably just sees that most of the boxing "media" consists of semi-literate cretins with a smartphone and YouTube channel and doesn't feel compelled to participate in that. I don't blame him.

    Agoraphobia is the word you're looking for, and no I don't think he has that either.

      Could be sure. I did hear rumors that some Vegas ******** were blackmailing him too. That would seem reasonable enough to stay in the dark. It’s a bit similar how DLW was played and trolled with utensils. It’s all very possible

        The tome of this thread is precisely that though, isn't it? Dismissing anyone who disagrees with his unevidenced assertion as simply 'haters' or 'boys'. He's not trying to start a balanced and rational discussion he's simply trying to insult and demean anyone who disagrees, right? Or perhaps you're reading it differently to me?

            A thread means all posts, not just the first one, not everybody is a hater we should be able to distinguish the real haters, I was just generalizing haters not this particular thread but I see your point.

              True enough, I should have just specified the OP, not the entire thread. And yeah one would hope most neutral folk would be able to spot a hater but sadly those who are particularly invested in a fighter themselves sometimes lack objectiviity and claim that anyone who isn't absolutely on board with a fighter they like is therefore a hater.

              Anyways regarding this thread there's plenty of people who are fans of Crawford who in no way hate Haymon or PBC even if they're not fans of Spence and there's likely many more like myself who are fans of both fighters and simply understand - or have resigned themselves to - the fact that boxing is foremost a business and that oftentimes fights just don't happen without it necessarily being the fault of one fighter or the other.​

                Every situation involving Haymon has a pattern.

                The loudest and most ardent posters that hate Haymon, Floyd and PBC are always tje first to comment. They throw out wild accusations and blame Haymon and his fighter for ducking.

                Then we get more information about what actually happened. The facts show it isnt just Haymon and often it isnt Haymon at all.

                Then these same posters log back on and double down ignoring the facts.

                Look at just recently. That group was quick to blame Tank and Spence for ducking and Haymon for not making fights we want.

                Only when we got the facts Tank was negotiating with Ryan the whole time he was allegedly ducking and Crawford hot asked questions and his story didnt quite hold up. Same thing happened with Canelo v Plant.

                They blamed Haymon for hbo leaving boxing, only we found out later what the truth was.

                Haymon has his faults. He definitely has made business decisions we as fans dont agree with. He definitely has waited on fights. He hasn’t made fights he could easily make. Same with every promoter.

                  An Alt tees up the opportunity for the usual suspects to cry about the injustice of all the "haters" hating on PBC. The usual suspects don't pass up the opportunity

                    If you are a mature adult, you can easily filter out the noise and deep down you can easily admit there are posts that are legit and valid without agenda.

                      Just make sure you BOYS buy Terence Crawfords PPV well in advance.
                      Why don't you present the real truth of what exactly happened?

                      Where is Espinoza in all this? Haven't heard his own version of what happened in the negotiations. Why is he so quiet?

                      Let us hear all versions so we can decide who to blame, who not to blame, or there's even anyone to blame.
