Golden Boy and Haymon following Arums PPV recipe

[jas]

And Santa Cruz isn't exactly a puncher. He's a volume guy, which means this Roman guy is going to take hundreds of punches over multiple rounds. That's more dangerous than Danny Garcia GARSHing a fighter in 2 rounds.

These mismatches serve multiple purposes. Mainly that they allow Haymon's fighters to fight out their contracts at the least amount of risk, and they make Golden Boy look bad in the process.

Not to mention Haymon's already set such a high standard for what his fighters expect to be paid, that Showtime can't match the purses they'd all expect for the good fights. Some are going to have to fight crap fights they're overpaid for, but not as overpaid as they would be for good fights. If Garcia is making 700k for Salka, what would he want for a dangerous fight at 147?

You make good points as always

But I was surprised to hear angel Garcia saying Danny isn't signed to gbp

It's main purpose is to keep fighters winning with low risk, casuals like to see knockouts

It's a slap in the face to hardcore boxing fans
But imagine if the guy Santa Cruz is fighting gets seriously seriously hurt, all involved will be vilified
