    If I was a pro boxer, I would try to be a Haymon fighter no doubt.

      **** Al Haymon. Hopefully HBO only pays his fighters what they deserve, and only shows the fighters that deserve to be shown now that they got a new guy in there.

        “If I wanted to,” James said Haymon often told him, “I could run boxing.”
        If his influence isn't curbed, we can look forward to a future of Bertos and Broners on BAD cards.

                Al Haymon is the sinister Illuminatus of boxing. He probably has a pic of a giant pyramid with an eye tattooed on his left buttcheek.

                  Arum - A Wolf that presents himself as a Wolf


                  Haymon - A Wolf that presents himself as a goat.


                  Schaffer - A Piggy Bank Wolf that presents himself as a Deer.


                  Dela Hoya - A Sheep that presents himself as a Wolf.

                    He does what Arum does; make his fighter look better than they otherwise would. The big difference and he sells to his fighters is that he gets them more money than they otherwise would. He is not good for the sport but he is great for the fighters he represents.
