      I think the guy he fought that night gave him troubles to a decision.

        Haymon trying to go on his own buying network time would be costly, I'd imagine it would mainly for record building fights, I don't think he'd be wiling to spend his own $ on his more expensive fighters.
        Buying airtime for a full program is not possible. But buying airtime for a commercial is possible.

          Of course you can buy air time.

            Even if these rumors are true Haymons a business man. I can't see him coming out of any deal losing money.

              I said this a while back. He's signing up all these fighters yet with only showtime to work with there is no way that he will be able to showcase all of them

                Oh and did I mention golden boy also has a deal with FS1 also.
                Have you ever actually watched one?

                Prospects against journeymen yeah that's a high dollar card I'm quite aware of advertising money.

                  He could put some cards on ESPN or FSN, and stack the cards for PPV and Showtime.

                    And if HBO wants they can gladly tell Haymon and Stevenson to **** off.

                    My guess is, Kovalev will keep doing 1M or around no matter what. As long as he keeps KOing people.

                      of course you can. It happens all the time. Shaw looked into doing it with Tarver years ago, but couldn't raise the financing.
