    The scores at the end of the quillin rosado fight say plenty.

      What does Haymon have to do with Smith? He's not getting paid by Smith. Why should he care?

        Because for some crazy reason, 9 and a half times outta 10 Haymon fighters dont get raw deals.

            Haymon isn't ****** rich but he knows entertainment and follows a strict blue print to build boxing stars. The networks the real money players in the sport love stars and in turn love Haymon. They do all the promotion and lay the ground work in the publics mind who has the better skills and who should win. The marketing more than anything sways the judges. The judges all have preconceived notions going into every bout. Mainly fed to them by the networks.

                You guys should know by now. Whenever a heavy favorite is in a close fight people always side with the underdog then cry robbery.

                Although tonights scores were pretty crappy

                See Castillo vs Mayweather
                Malignaggi vs. Broner
                Maidana vs Khan
                Morales vs. Maidana

                  You don't need millions to pay a judge off. Judges aren't paid millions, nor hundreds-of-thousands of dollars. And lets not act like it's only Haymon's pocket that'll be dug into. It's fairly large entourage. Net worths are only public money placed on top of an iceberg any how.

                  And I love how you just randomly call Bob Arum my buddy as if I implied Haymon was the only one guilty.... In fact, what does Bob Arum have to do with Haymon? Completely irrelevant. Know what they call that? Straw man arguments.
