I like the attitude they have of getting a card full of big fights. Reminds me of the old days..

its funny how ppl are praying for this to fail. the more big promoters, the better for boxing. competition is always a good thing. i dont know if they will succeed. but u better believe, floyd and 50 did this with the backing of Haymon. and Haymon just might be the most powerful man in the sport. if hes backing them and TMT, this venture has legs. dont expect it to fail anytime soon if a guy like lou dibella can survive as long as he has. nothing against dibella, but he doesnt have none of the backing, recognition etc of TMT. i think ppl are severely underestimating these guys.

This is good for boxing. At least it wont be only bob aruem and de la hoya doing wathever they please in boxing. Now they have fifti and floyd in the competition. Im tired of mismatches and gredy promoters ....hope tmt changes the game. The more competition , the more the promoters will be forced to put better cards.

You dudes sound mad.

The blatant racism in boxing is underrated. The Al Haymon **** is a good example.

This forum is full of hate.

TMT is good for boxing, shows the mainstream that boxing isn't dead. Aren't we boxing fans after all? I'm don't know if TMT will be a success or a failure but if it does fail then it's not good for boxing.

Stuff like this is why I watch MMA.

My main problem is their name, the money team promotions just sounds like a young dumb ignorant name. Money is the problem with boxing today with fighters getting payed so well on fights they shouldn’t be making millions for. But besides that, having 50 cent is good because it attracts a different demographic to the sport, and brings in other media to help the sport out.

I agree. I think the name is a lil immature' ish if they're looking to make a statement in a positive light in the sport. The Money Team sounds like a record label or rap group and not so much a promotional company.

WHat is wrong with fighters earning more money? They are the ones in their working. WHy should a promoter get more than the fghter?

Your rationale makes little sens IMO.

I read around here quite a few people saying they want 'new blood' in the sport.....

And then when it comes, they can't stop protesting

This is good news for boxing and I wish TMT all the success in this endeavor. In the states, we need more top promotional company's that can compete with GBP and Top Rank, it would be good for boxing.
