That seems to be the formula and im sure this has been calculated for quite sometime...hopefully its a success. As for us fans were getn what we want.

The most exciting part about this is if it works than it will do two things. It will create a platform in which boxers get more stable pay. You don't have to really worry about every fight being a super fight to bring a good check in. Which I imagine will force Top Rank and Golden Boy to have to follow the same model or risk losing their fighters to greener pastures.

The second and most exciting thing is it will put boxing back into a more recognized and respected position in the sports world. This will do great to grow the popularity of the sport. It frustrates me that boxing is not more popular than it is, or that I can't tune in to watch fights like I can a basketball game. Matthyse vs Molina should have been a much talked about sporting event. Broner vs Maidana, Alexander vs Khan, Brook vs Porter should have all been as talked about as whatever basketball or football game was on at the time.

I really hope this succeeds for the sake of the sport.

This isn't on the same card as Thurman and Broner. We've seen plenty of cards as good as Thurman vs. Guerrero/ Broner vs. Molina. Hell, the Khan/Alexander card was as good.

Sorry I thought it was the same card ... And if it was then no, we haven't seen any cards as good as that.

This may be he best year of boxing in...5 years? I remember us having a really good year recently just can't remember which year it was.

yeah 2013 was the best year of boxing i can remember followed by the worst in 2014. hopefully 2015 keeps the momentum as it is off to a ****!

i dont understand what the hype is over this fight....didnt lucas KO this dude in 2 rounds?....he shudve lost to khan too (who also KDed him a couple of times)..and lost to timmy bradley.

Still good fights. I hope Haymon keeps it up, boxing needs this. I know I'll be getting everyone I can to watch, and it helps that stylistically these should be good fights to watch.

this will be the most ridiculously crap fight of the year.

in no way either of these guys should be champs. but now the winner will be the unified WBA super, WBC, IBF and Ring champ hahahahahhahahaha. what a joke!

i will not watch this fight like i didn't watch his fight against salka. danny needs to find his inner courage and give herrera a rematch.

[jose.sooto]

What are you bragging about exactly? You swallowed Haymon's **** sandwiches for a year and now because he's finally making fights a year after they should have happened, you're gloating? About what exactly? I don't get it. We as fans lost a year.

The end doesn't justify the means.

boxingscene.com NEVER fails to amaze me. Super good news come out and you guys STILL talk negative crap. So what, 2014 was a down year for Al, get over it . Haymon is back to putting up great matchups and even last year we still got some good ones such as Maidana/Mayweather, Lara/Canelo, Porter/Brook and Khan/Alexander just to name a few. 2015 haters are going to eat their hearts out!...its already happening lol

Yay! The winner of this fight get to run away from Herrera just like Danny boy's been doing.

Good thing your not a promoter, with that logic you would have fired Manny Pacquaio for getting koed by nobodies twice!

broner fighting a guy coming off two devastating losses is a great matchup???? hahahahahahahaha you floyd/haymon groupies are the worst

and the winner of danny vs lamont will be the unified WBA super, WBC, IBF and ring champ hahahahaha. neither of those two guys should be called champs since herrera was clearly without a doubt robbed and lamont is a confirmed PED cheat and was KO'ed by matthysse.

thurman vs guerrero is the only okay fight, but guerrero sucks.

you haymon thugs will eat up anything and it's disgusting.
