Khan to add Al Haymon to his team?

[The Big Dunn]

That doesn't help the fans or the sport, it just means there's less money available for promoters to put on other good fights.

Moreover, fighters getting paid big lop-sided money to take on average opponents deters them from taking risks against the best fighters.

You really think promoters are using the bulk of profit to stage better fights?

It's so disappointing to see this from a boxing fan. How could you be opposed to guys fighting making and taking home more? Thats what it should be. The fans benefit when the promoters and networks invest more in quality fights.

smart move by khan


he is aligning himself with the best manager in boxing to secure big money fights with floyd. etc


honestly i would like to see a khan-berto fight,,, that would be fun,,,,

and where do you think they get the money to "invest in quality fights"?

Hint: it's not by giving it all away to fighters taking on sub-par opponents.

Promoting is a tough game, these guys aren't making the stacks you think they are, in fact, they frequently lose money and many leave the sport.

How could you be opposed to guys fighting making and taking home more?

A big payday is warranted for a big fight against a quality opponent, not for knocking over a can.

HBO Boxing and SHowtime Boxing get their budgets from corporate. Who they give prime dates to is based on viewer ratings, not opinion of the matchup. If HBO feels paying moe for Berto v bum A is a better investment than santa cruz v mares, thats THEIR decision.

A fight may look great on paper but there is no guarantee that it will be great in the ring.
All we can hope for is we get surprised like we did with Figueroa and Arakawa.

I think its better that fighters get as much money as they can. Its always better when the people who do the work get more.

so now Maidana signing with Haymon also

[-Huey-]

Khan got owned by a bum in His last fight, unless Haymon can get him jaw replacement surgery, he will continue to get his ass laid out. You can only find so many feather fisted bums out there willing to take a dive.

Al Haymon best interest is his clients not promoters or fans; and he does the best job in taking care of them.

LM and Garcia are getting paid pretty well. So your point loses some credibility. It's the UFC model if I may. Monopolize the best fighters and showcase them against each other regularly. Losing wont hurt as much so there is essentially decreased risk when fighting a perceived threat. I think this may be a win for all including the fans.

Thats a good move on his part. It should work out as long as his chin does not get hit. That is why it won't work out because his chin can't take a punch.
