Comments Thread For: Hearn Says Goldenboy Rejected Quigg-Santa Cruz Bout

smh, thanks a lot Haymon

I wish fighters would tell Haymon they want to fight the best, and he goes out and gets them above average money, then there would be no problem. Instead, the fighters allow him to dictate everything to them.

NSB so desperate to hate Haymon.

GBP rejects and response is ****** Haymon.

Agree. although with the law suit pending the only leverage al has to negotiate with is depriving GBP of good fights. My guess is a 3rd party will intervene b/c Sho/GBP/GBS/FS1 can't keep having **** cards.

lol at it being "Al Haymon Fault" when Leo Santa Cruz "Duck A Fighter" the double standard on this forum is laughable but also embarrassing

Was it not Leo Santa Cruz who said he wanted 3 More Fights Before Fighting Rigondeaux? Let Me guess "AL HAYMON TOLD HIM TO SAY THAT"

Everyone *****ed to get Richard out andget oscar back and now they *****ing cause oscar isnt the leader so many thought he was and if you look over the fence we got pac v algeri on PPV and that has nothing to do with haymon. Its boxing. Has always been this way.

Hearn is full of shït.

Why would he send Quigg to the US to fight LSC on another promoter's card, where Quigg would probably lose, when Hearn is trying to orchestrate a unification of two unbeaten, British "champions" on his PPV in the UK with Quigg v Frampton?

If Hearn is so confident Quigg would beat LSC then why the shíthouse opponent for Quigg in his next fight?

He's keeping him unbeaten and paper champ to make the Frampton fight huge. If Quigg loses first then that fight drops stock massively.

LSC might not have offered Quigg the fight, but Eddie wouldn't have any intention of letting Quigg go and fight LSC in the first place. Not at least until after he's made Quigg v Frampton.

I usually use Haymon as a scapegoat, but this makes more sense. Frampton/Quigg will be big in the UK and could net both fighters a lot more money than fights against LSC or Rigondeaux. Frampton's probably going to beat Kiko Martinez too so this is going to happen in 2015. Doubtful that Hearn was seriously considering jeopardizing the domestic fight.

I think this story is fabricated, i dont believe it. I'll bet gbp counter offered for them to come over here and they declined.. they are so in a rush to bring someone like lsc over to the uk so they could rob him blind.. only guy i believe that will come to fight in the states is frampton.

[J-Lop]

Instead of Leo Santa Cruz, why doesn't he issue a challenge to the true king of the division Guillermo Rigondeaux? Two belts are way better than one, and Rigo is looking for challengers.

This right here. Hearn is taking a page out of the Frank Warren playbook; hype your guy by saying we wanted some big name foreign fighter, make a hilarious offer that will of course be rejected, and then go around saying they ducked you to hype interest while you line your guy up to fight another can.
