    Since Haymon is trying to re-create the ufc model in boxing why not just go straight to ppv with 7-8 fight cards. every month

      I used to think whenever people say they got caught with ********... it was just like made up fake stories.

      Then with J-lo's dude and Hank Basket getting caught.... damn
      I've been saying prime time basic cable is what boxing needs. Even tho boxing isn't dead like UFC fans say. It would be much better off it sports fans could easily watch and know about it

        Looks like hbo gets the last laugh. Boxing being on that network was privilege not a priority. You got a machine like that behind you,u make sure not to mess it up. Dumbass

          Where's the money going to come from? Haymon paying to broadcast his own fights.

          They televise shows on basic cable FNF-FS1 the problem is they have a tiny budget not near enough to pay the demands top fighters require.

            Yep, HBO and arum saw all of this coming, cut if off before it became to much of a mess and destroyed them both.

            Now GBP and haymon are involved in multiple lawsuits.
            They have more fighters than they can feed.
            GBP is rumored to be operating in the negatives.
            Showtime literally has boxing fans threatening to unsubscribe.
            Espinoza is stuck to GBP and haymon and all of there BS.
            Ratings are WAY down.
            Mayweather PPV sales are down.
            Schaefer is probably done in this business.

            Haymon is savvy as ****, but this thing looks like kts about to self implode for everyone involved.

              I was thinking the same thing.

              If that's the case, I can think of a few posters on this site that would be more than willing to dress up like a woman and get railed by Haymon.

                Haymon's not ******, and he's still signing fighters so presumably he must have a plan?

                Or is his plan to sign so many top fighters that HBO and Sho are forced to deal with him?

                    The latter. That's why he signed Stevenson. If HBO wants to make their dream fight they have to work with him.
