    Look at the 140-147 picture

    Broner, Guerrero, Berto, Thurman, Khan, Peterson, Maidana, Matthysse, Garcia, Lopez, Ortiz, Porter, Alexander...

    These guys will never run out of fights for the next 3-5 years. But Haymon prefers to pit them outside of this group.

    Take it from Thurman, doe. He claims that he's being ducked by everybody. Broner, Khan, Matthysse, these guys' last fights didn't come from this group. Guerrero is back fighting a nobody. Not Thurman, not Broner, need I continue? What over protectionism my ass.

      also he has been part of the some of the biggest robberies of recent memory (ie. paul williams vs lara).
      He also signed Lara and gave him a shot against Canelo, Lara himself stated goldenboy has done nothing for him and it was all Haymon that got his career where it needs to be. Same with Trout and Shawn Porter says it was Haymon who got him the Alexander fight and Paulie fight even though goldenboy promotes his fights.

      Oscar doesnt want to protect his cashcow? He's the one that didn't want Canelo to fight Lara.

      Also how does Haymon Protect Floyd? Floyd at this point could fight anyone he wants, no one's going to tell him who to fight.

        haymon robbed lara of a win against williams.

        no matter what lara says in public, privately he hates haymon for this and will never forgive him in his heart.

          Haymon does stop big fights from happening. Adonis Stevenson signs with Haymon and suddenly instead of getting Kovalev-Stevenson we're probably going to have to settle for Stevenson-Hopkins. Look at Gary Russel Jr. He fought bum after bum until he got an undeserved title shot.

          Also, how quick people forget the Haymon Ross Greenburg era on HBO. That definitely started the hate for him. People who think it's only because he's associated with Floyd Mayweather are fools.

            Why defend him? If Floyd split with him tomorrow you'd turn on him like you did 50 Cent.

            Haymon is responsible for big fights not happening, protecting fighters, draining TV budgets and promoters wars. As a boxing fan there's nothing to like about him.

            We need Junior Gong on this thread to spell out your silliness.

              no need to go around insulting people calling them sewer ****.
              Some of these guys are sewer-**** plain & simple, because they feed on unverified, speculative rumor and then condemn without a shed of evidence.

              BTW ... I'll take you up on the challenge!

              Can you detail why? you don't like Haymon.

              And if you would, provide some reference that can be read or inspected and is void of speculative rumor, or a personal perspective derived and or gained from others opinion.

                And you would know what Lara says privately because your part of his team, right?

                    simply i don't like haymon because it's him and as well as schaefer who are continuing the cold war. that's common knowledge.

                    you know this. i don't have time to give you all references but if you have time then you can easily look this up yourself. but i think you choose not to. why?

                    and again it's very rude to call someone a sewer rate no matter their opinion. everyone has different opinions this is life. you should apologize for this.

                      Haymon is good for getting the fighters he manages good paydays and in some instances gift decisions but from a fans perspective he has robbed us fans of some highly anticipated fights such as Kovalev/Stevenson as of recent. I can see why fighters praise him but why would Boxing fans praise him? We're the ones losing out here
