    Comments Thread For: Andre Dirrell on Leaving Haymon, Joining TMT Promotions

    The formation of TMT (The Money Team) Promotions created a buzz and excitement in the sport that resonated with a lot of fans as the thought of a new company headed by boxing’s biggest star Floyd Mayweather Jr was a breath of fresh air. Nobody was more excited than Super Middleweight contender Andre Dirrell who was one of the first fighters signed to TMT Promotions last month.

    The Flint, MI native has been out of the ring for quite some time with just one fight in the last 2 and half years. A head injury in 2010 during his fight with Arthur Abraham sidelined him for over a year as he recovered and was evaluated. In addition, Dirrell severed ties with then promoter Gary Shaw and in a move the surprised most, he also ended his professional relationship with the very powerful Al Haymon.

    I'll be impressed with TMT when they actually get some fights going. Good signings... but nothing has happened yet. I know they need more time, just saying

      Does this mean Haymon isn't involved with TMT?

          Conspiracy theory, but Haymon reminds me of the main bad guy in the Breaking Bad TV show through season 4. Except the chicken business would be the TMT business... well I guess there are chickens in their stable. Point is, the guy is becoming more low key with this whole TMT front.

            who cares about what Dirrell does. The main question is if Floyd is still working with Al?

              That is a good question.
