Al Haymon knows Floyd Mayweather type boxers don't sell, Floyd is the exception to the rule.
Look at all his TV match ups, he is putting action fights or fights that have the chance to be wars.
These are stylistic match ups that he is making to try and get the casual fans to tune in.
Smart move.
He is not putting defense first boxers on network tv. he is putting some guys who will probably duke it out and a war.
Lets hope the fights turn out good and have casuals talking positively like did you see that figh ton NBC? those dudes had a fight of the year pure action and drama!
I wouldn't doubt Haymon probably is setting up a reward for whoever wins by KO.Comment
