    Was Haye making a mistake by being co-promoted by Golden boy?

    As Haye and Adam Booth always said, they dont have promoter so they can do everything their own way with no extra costs.

    But now Haye is co-promoted by Golden Boy, was this a big mistake?

    Im guessing Golden Boy will take a chunk out of the purse for his future fights, but realistically does Haye need a promoter?

    He has done a good job at promoting himself, so why on earth did he join with Golden boy?

    I'm pretty sure he's been Golden Boy for ages. It's Don King that's got a slice of the pie now.

      According to Colin Hart this morning, by signnig to fight Valuev he's now contracted with Sauerland, Golden Boy and Don King

      Sounds complicated.

      Mind you, he knows what he's doing, Hae seems a smart chap.

        Yeah, Haye and Booth know what they are doing.

        And if there only option was to sign with these promoters to get the Valuev fight then i think it was a good choice as even though he will now lose some of his purse, he will have HUGE money fights from now on.

        Promoters are stinkng leeches!

          He's been with golden boy for best part of a couple of years now, and had to get king and sauerland on board in order to make the valuev fight happen. The fact that Haye jumped at this tells you just how much the Klitschko's were trying to **** him.

          Oh, and Colin Hart is a cast-iron ****

              Can somebody clear this up for me, is Haye a goldenboy, sauerland or Don king fighter now? I know he atleast used to be with golden boy but now I see several people on here saying he is a Don King fighter now, I thought Valuev was the don king fighter.

                Don King & Sauerland will co-promote Haye's next three fights along with Golden Boy/Hayemaker. It was the chief reason he was able to get the Valuev fight.

                    Haye isnt a King fighter, For him to get a chance at Valuev who Saulerland/King Co-promotes Haye has to give them options on a few fights (one of them which is a rematch with Valuev). Haye is a partner of Golden Boy just like Mayweather or Hatton is a partner of Golden boy.

                    GBP would take a slice of whatever Haye earns till their agreement ends while Sauderland/King would make some money in Haye's next few fights.

                    They dont control who he fights, Only Haye promotion (Adam Booth) Controls that.
