    As Eaner pointed out yesterday as Sports President it's not just boxing you're responsible for. Perhaps they need a separate Head of Boxing position answerable to the sports president. My pick would be Sampson Lewkowicz. This is fellow has a track record of finding talented, action fighters from all corners of the globe and getting them into big fights.

      Oh my god.

      Why the *** are you here ?

          Bradley vs Alexander was a fight that needed to happen, but they over paid both guys for those fights and they shouldn't have offered both millions for there next fight.

          I think not getting the Bradley/khan fight also hurt greenburg.

          And also the special treatment for Haymon's fighter was also bogus.

          Greenburg funked up trying to get the African American market when he should've been following Arum's lead and gotten into the Latino market.

                  Yeah, it was bad enough when he was doing dumb as fuck opinion pieces like 'Why Sergio should fight Hopkins', but now they're having him do news stories as well

                  I clicked on the article expecting to read a fact-based news report and instead got...I dunno, whatever the fuck that horribly-written piece of shit article was.

                    This is as factual as a boxingscene news report gets, I guess. Horrible.
