    he loves dumb A$$ YES MEN like Michael Konz, guys who will work with him and help him *** OVER HIS FIGHTERS AND STEAL FROM THEM!

    Fans hate Al Haymon because they was TOLD TO HATE HIM by people like Bob Arum

    Haymon is the BEST AT WHAT HE DOES IMO, he gets his Fighters a lot of money and Dates on HBO...sounds like a GREAT MANAGER/Promoter IMO!

    People are JEALOUS OF HIS POWER...INCLUDING BOB ARUM!
    Why do people hate Arum?

    You right, Haymon is great at what he does...And, he does his job and he does it right. But, the same reason why people "hate" him...Is the same reason why people "hate" Arum.

    Because, they do what's in the best interest for their own pockets and their fighters. But, in return that returns the best interest of the fans.

      he is the best no doubt. he gets his fighters lots of money for easy fights but being the best at what he does means the fans suffer because the fights are terrible. and since im a boxing fan not an al haymon fan he ruins the sport. hbo should regulate him and tell him to **** off with his crappy fights. that's the most disappointing part. they just let him get away with murder.

        Fact is, HBO just does not put on competitive fights. Period.

          Talk about missing the point.

          See the line that I emboldened?

          I acknowledge how brilliant he is for his fighters. But it's at the expense of the sport, when Broner is getting dates and hype. This is Andre Berto revisited.

          No-one has been duped by Arum (who I also despise) into hating Haymon. In fact, has Arum even commented on Haymon?

          This is because some of us want Haymon to stop getting favours. I honestly believe we're not far off Broner headling a BAD show. I mean, just imagine that.

              I really don't care as most of those dudes are white posters like Prettyboy32, using alts pretending to be black.

                  As much as Broner irritates me, yes it is a little. Canelo is considered a PPV attraction even against bums. Cintron is a bum no doubt about it.
