    Sad that boxing's biggest battles are fought in the court room instead of the ring
    It's very unfortunate.

      Don't know if this has any legs..... so we'll see where it goes.

      ME arguing that GYM answered for Stevenson and led them to believe he was cool with it

Kathy may have filed but that does not mean she has a valid case. if Shaffer and haymon did something legally shady, I would think they are smart enough to cover their tracks. whether or not what they did is morally shady is a whole other issue. its up to you to decide if you agree or disagree with them. I am interested in how this plays out.
        Haymon isn't a lawyer. But I do believe he is smart enough to have a team of lawyers around him that would prevent him from being caught up in a situation like this. However Haymon's action have always seemed borderline illegal. Everyone has always suggested that the way he operates oversteps the law. He evades this by giving himself the title of "advisor" which is not licensed or regulated like managers and promoters

            Maybe he's thinking about Dwyer, lol.

            He's a lawyer, and legal advice seems to be the only good advice he gives out

                  Over reaching?
                  Fact of the matter is even an agreed upon transaction through email can be a legally binding contract in a court of law. Main events have grounds for this lawsuit based upon the facts of the agreements made between the parties.
                  Clearly there was collusion between Haymon and GBP to help break that contract which makes them viable defendants in this case.
                  I've gone through this type of case with nothing more then verbally binding agreements based on email etc and believe me they are not over reaching here.

                    Only big issue I see is GYM saying everything was good and then saying they can't speak for Adonis after everything fell apart.

                    I didn't know Haymon said that he wouldn't interfere and everything was good with him

                      Collusion with GBP? Based on what? Lol u guys and your speculation. That's not how law works. U have to have facts to prove things. U can't just guess your way to a victory in court. She's clearly over reaching.
