    Supposedly there's a triple header lined up where you get to see all your favorite Harmon fighters, fight tomato cans.

    Stay tuned....

          He already has, where we would be without HBO standing up to him?

          Haymon fighters have won like 33/33 of the last fights on Showtime. All complete mismatches mostly. Look at Showtimes lineup this past year, its a joke.

          It's no mystery why there ratings have plummeted.

            I can't wait for his fighters one by one to begin suing him to get out of their contracts. Surely to god they are going to eventually see that he is harming their careers.

                Thanks, for that information. I was waiting for Haymon's announcement for the card planned for the 6th of February, but it is moved forward a month then?

                  They touched on this during Steve Kim's latest pod cast that the investors are getting a bit nervous due to how low the ratings have dropped on Showtime.

                  When Haymon got his financial backing to start all this, he was coming off the 2013 Showtime season which was surprisingly strong, but then in 2014 he reverted back to his old style of match making that got him kicked off HBO.

                    I understand it was supposed to start the week after Superbowl weekend but was then re-scheduled to the start of March (for unspecified reasons).

                    Wouldn't be surprised, but it may not be as bad as we think. Thing is though, if it flops Haymon won't care much because it's the investor's money. His record would suggest that he does not mind screwing over big companies.
