    Al haymon great for boxer but not great for the sport

    Yes I know his job is to get fighters the most amount of money but us fans are losing out on some great matches

    In a short couple of months we lost andonist vs KoVel now we could lose GGG vs jcc jr with so many boxers under his stable very rarly are the best fighting the best

    Last time I check when the best fought the best was lucas mattyess vs danny Garcia and that was demanded by the public not even us boxing head so they had no choice to make that fight

    THIS IS MY OPINION WHAT YOURS?

    you sound like a child who does not have any responsibilities. why should chavez jr and adonis take short money to please you.

    im perfectly fine with those grown men with families taking care of their business. ggg can go fight kovalez for all i care they're both overrated and have done nothing in this sport.

      It's the promoters job to make the best fight possible and please the fans; the advisor job is his client the best deal possible what the fans want means nothing to them.

        Like I said he great for boxers but not great for the sport......the sport doesn't need a andonis vs Hopkins it needs fight like Stevens vs koleve two fighters in there prime

        You do know boxers need fans to follow there career right? Without us fans they wouldn't have a career

            i disagree the sport of boxing does need those fights.

            and you are just one fan..so if i disagree with you im sure others will too.

              Manager is the only other title he can have; he certainly not a matchmaker or Promoter atleast not yet.

                If he's stopping the best from fighting the best then **** him. And whoever else is holding these fights up.

                Problem is not all these clowns that they are holdin onto are truly stars, they're just trying to milk them while they can. Meanwhile we are stuck watching Adrien Broner fight Carlos Molina when he should be fighting Danny Garcia or Amir Khan. This is just an example. No exceptions.

                    Looks like boxing is heading in a sad direction. But who cares right we get Thurman vs diaz and Lucas vs Molina next week?
