      Haymon uses influence to get his guys paid high when they might not deserve it. That said Haymon fighters get decisions and sometimes they lose them. The ones that get close decisions are the only ones people recall. I mean if Berto got a gift against Ortiz or the Ghost or if Arreola got a decision against Adamek then maybe I could understand. Guys like Broner and Alexander getting the nods in close fights to me may be a result of the bigger name getting the benefit of the doubt. It been happening for ever and that doesn't make it right. I don't see any huge new issue.

      Bob just lies a lot and does what best for him as opposed to whats best for his fighters or the sport.

      Neither does the sport a lot of favors but if i was a pro fighter I would want to be a Haymon fighter cause he seems to at least always take care of their interest.

        Real shady never shows up at pressers and hides from doing interviews.

              That's the bad part. He gives his fighters tomato cans to maintain their zeros. Arum don't give a crap who wins since they're usually in-house fights. Which is actually good for the fans. It's only recently that Haymon is pitting his guys against each other, probably the result of the HBO fallout. That leaves him very little choice.

                To me Arum is worst the guy wouldn't even make Lopez vs Gamboa when everybody was asking for that fight or make fights with GBP.
