Comments Thread For: Matthysse To Return on September 6, Not With Broner

[al-Xander]

Espinoza and Haymon have ruined boxing.

Haymon-protected fighters don't fight each other simply because they get paid $1 million for fighting tomato cans.

Berto, Broner, and Mathysse all on the same card fighting the 78th, 79th, and 80th ranked LWW and WWs in the world!

Hell yes! Al Haymon saved boxing!

The second they announce a bs card like that is the second I cancel my showtime subscription.

Man this is some bullsh#t.

Seriously, I was expecting Matthysse to put Broner to sleep on the Money May undercard.

Another pros vs joes....thanks Haymon.

I told you people. These Haymon-protected fighters will keep on avoiding each other. They will keep fighting TBAs and TBDs. And Espinoza is okay with this. He'll proudly tweet, "Broner and Matthysse ring return in Sept. Opponents to be announced (TBA), to be decided (TBD)." This guy is a joke.

Fans need to do something.

you made a comment about the quality of the card without even knowing who the opponents are yet. seems a little premature.

DID you do this when they announced Kovalev and GGG would be retuing and hadn't announced the opponents yet?

Apples and chicken. Those guys are being ducked by everybody.
These Haymon fighters are ducks. Ask Thurman.

This is going to flop. Khan can't fight, nobody's going to pay to see Bronee fight another laundromat worker.

I hope everyone looking forward to Jack, Love and Bey

I guess my sig meme is catching on...


Anywho, they have to stop announcing fights without opponents. We're fans of fighters but we care about match ups too. The strategy actually backfires when these guys struggle with the opponents in their appearance fights. The fighters' fans lose faith in their guy. I hope Haymon/SHO/GBP and everyone else in boxing begin to realize this #realquick.

avoided the question.

how can you criticize a card when you don't know whose on it. Also, when GGG and Kovalev announced dates without opponents, did you trash the card?

understandable, but given Danny Garcia and Lamont Peterson are fighting on a card next month, knocking out 2 other credible Junior Welters what credible opponents are left for Matthysse & Broner

fighting vs one another on the Mayweather undercard would seem the best option, but that looks out right now

pretty disappointing
