    What are Al Haymon's credentials?

    What are his credentials? I know he signs fighters and has money. Anyone know his background or how he got into this role?

    He used to be a concert promotor.

            None in particular, we hope. He's just a clever guy with the resources and preexisting experience and connections to come into a draconian wasteland like boxing and exploit situation. It's not like Haymon just showed up one day and started dominating player representation in the NFL or the NBA. It's boxing. Might as well be pro table tennis FCS.

                Yes, that's how he got into boxing...when Hammer was "promoting" Evander Holyfield.

                He's been involved with nearly every major star in the sport. He's also well-respected in various circles, particularly music -- he used to manage New Kids on the Block, among others. He also attended Harvard alongside some of the movers and shakers in boxing.

                    Ask TS Foxxy. She knows all his dirty, little secrets.
