Main Events filed suit today in Federal court suing multiple people

[Jsmooth9876]

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

Stevenson will not be held at all accountable as far as I can tell. His manager, company, Haymon, and GBP would be responsible for which I'm assuming would be a monetary compensation. The fight will never happen but Main events will probably settle for some of the lost financial gain they perceived to be coming from this mega fight.

Duvas no better she thinks the fighters are her slaves, Boxing needs some major reform

Huh? I dunno how good her contracts are, but it's rare to see a promoter who comes across as caring as much about their fighters. Maybe it's cos she's got some kinda maternal thing going on - and of course her job ain't to care about them but to make ME the most money - but still... slaves?

Perhaps I've missed something.

In the 40-50's we had mob influence running rampant through boxing. Today we have Al Haymon pulling the strings in the same manner.
He maintained a low profile for a long time. Seems we will know a lot more about this fellow soon enough.

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.

Do you know anything about law?
I happen to know a little bit
Here is just one example.many companies have lost court cases including Amazon due to contract law regarding email agreements. Some have gone as high as the supreme court.

The outcome will likely be something like this ^. However it should serve to shine some light on Haymons actual role and hopefully alert the smaller managers and promoters that trying to make the extra $s for their fighters (and by extension themselves) by making use of Haymon as an 'advisor' (actually de facto manager) can actually make themselves, the de jure managers, liable to legal consequences.

I strongly suspect that ME and Duva are not acting entirely alone on this - Haymons 'Advisor' loophole in the Ali laws are causing not just HBO but a number of the second tier managerial and promotional companies very real problems as fighters they have invested heavily in are either denied fights or are effectively taken out of their control (though not their legal responsibility).
