I think these crooked decisions are drawing too much attention and getting out while the getting is good might be his best option. Once an investigation begins, there is no telling what will be exposed.

Yeah! Because Greenburg plays favors with Haymon & GBP when Top Rank has the "Trump Card" in Pacquiao.

Stop mindlessly parroting stuff you hear. How has Greenburg played favorites with GBP? Specific examples, please.

HBO doesn't give a f*** what the boxers' minimums are. When HBO forces something to PPV, it's because of HBO's budget, not the boxer's financial demands.

Yeah HBO hasn't be wise with their boxing budget... which means fight like those are regulated to PPV, or another outlet.

A classic example would be the Adamek/Cunningham fight which Vs only paid 150K for while HBO has spent millions on Berto showcases and Dawson rematches that no one wanted to see.

GBP is the only promoter to have set output dates on HBO...

Greenburg was a ****** mofo for giving guys like Paul Williams, Devon Alexander and Timothy Bradley who could not draw **** 1 million dollar pay days for ****ty fights while they let guys like Cotto, Juanma, Pacquiao, Bute and Rios go to Showtime.

Al haymon is crying right now.

I guess fat Dan is gonna take the job! Did he say that he was going to take it? Wasn't there speculation about that happening?

Bad business decision from Greenburg.

I was at my bar for the Cotto-Mayorga and Martinez-Dizy fight. They had like 20 screen for the Cotto-Mayorga fight on Showtime and maybe 2 small screen for Martinez fight on HBO.

Pac-Mosley did 1.3-1.4 PPV.

Greenburg got fired because he turned his back on 2 of boxing biggest name.

well some one has big shoes to fill I hope he does a good job don't take any **** from Bob Arum.
