    I don't think so. I think HBO pretty much said they wouldn't do business with Haymon.

      Actually this is what Ken Hershman had to say about it in a recent interview:

      SI.com: Earlier this year, you made a decision not to do business with Golden Boy. Was the thinking behind that decision as simple as Golden Boy was taking all of HBO's stars across the street to Showtime?

      Hershman: No. It wasn't quite that simple. For me it was about whether there was a business model that synchs up with our business model and right now, it doesn't. I don't think anything has changed on that front. That's how we feel.

      SI.com: Do you expect any changes in this relationship in 2014?

      Hershman: We'll see. I never say never. I never close the door. But right now, nothing has changed.

      SI.com: It was assumed that when you severed ties with Golden Boy, you also severed ties with Al Haymon. You made a deal for Edwin Rodriguez, an Al Haymon fighter, to fight Ward. What is your position on doing fights with Al Haymon-advised fighters?

      Hershman: You can look back to our statement. That's really all I want to say about it.

            Rodriguez is promoted by dibella and to answer the question, haymon doesn't manage any top rank fighter

              why? Haymon will find out quickly there is no money to be made in mma. WTF is he going to do? MMA is a UFC monopoly. Dana White gives you a price and you take it or don't fight.

                  hmm well floyd better start a mma promotion then. Dana White owns the whole mma space. Nobody is going to make money except him.

                    Al Haymon needs marketable fighters a good majority of Top Rank fighters barely speak English. Arum what 4 or 5 American fighters he like foreign fighters more so he can screw them over.
