      People hate Haymon for the mismatches, not anything else. His star fighters rarely fighting each other won't make the hate go away.

        I think Haymon should put just his white fighters on BET. That would be funny...I'm sure the folks who watch that channel would enjoy a couple of pasty folks beating each other up lol..

            I can see where he'll actually find spots for all these fighters now.

            I really hope he does good things with all this airtime.

              I don't like a monopoly in boxing, and certainly think Al Haymon is not just an advisor but a promoter but BET is OK. You need to get boxing talking in Barber shops and all that.Trust me it will help casuals

                More boxing on regular cable is a good thing. So he has a deal with NBC and NBC Sports. These will likely be the best fights. On S pike TV there will be a card one Friday a month, the Berto vs Lopez type of fights. Then I assume places like BET will be more of a building ground to showcase young talent, like the Errol Spence's and the likes. All in all it's a good strategy to have all these outlets for all of his fighters. Obviously having a 150 fighters isn't going to be doable on one or two networks.

                  I don't care what network the fights are on I will find them regardless if it is Stream or whatever. This is long over due for Boxing Though. It is like the sport has limited its own growing potential by only mostly being on HBO and Showtime all these years SMH...
