Moonves to Espinoza - No Haymon unless Mayweather/Pacquiao

saa, dont bother debating with fl0mos

It's a major fight. But in the end, it's one fight. Haymon has the bulk of the world's top boxing talent under his wing. U don't go alienating the top guy in boxing over one fight. It really doesn't make sense. Mind u, it's really not on Haymon to make the fight so why hold him responsible? IF they wanted to stop working with Haymon, it would have very little to do with mayweather and more to do with his move to other networks. Haymon boxing is the future, like it or not. U don't mortgage the future for one fight. These guys are smart business men. They don't think like fans. They think based on money.

Well al haymon just took his fighters to other networks, so why would I appeas him now...

If your girlfriend just decided to go on vacation with another guy (nbc) you wouldn't just be waiting with open arms, you would be mad as hell..
That's how showtime/cbs has to feel like when after 2 years of promoting haymon guys with the anticipation for future big fights, he took the big fights to nbc and other cable channels.. The fights haymon announced for cable are far better than the ones he gave showtime in 2014..

I thought the whole point in signing floyd was to build up the showtime boxing rosters but now haymon has seemingly left you in the dark with a 32 million obligation to floyd, and absolutely nothing to show for it now..
No Canelo
No danny
No broner
No thurman
No ghost

No cards scheduled, and your gonna pay floyd 32 plus million to fight someone that isn't manny... It makes no sense

So nothing concrete or fact at all just "there are reports"? No thanks Hauser, come back when you actually have something substantial.

Well put.

Al haymon is a sneaky guy. Taking advantage of tv networks and fighters.

No loyalty like Floyd is to hbo, who made him a star.

Good riddance, don't let the door hit you on your way out.

From the Hausser Report, 3/4 down, says he's hearing reports that Moonves is putting a hold on any further Haymon fights unless Mayweather/Pacquiao is made and that's why Showtime programming has nothing at the moment.

If Showtime doesn't decide to feature any Haymon fighters, Showtime will be the loser, not Haymon. I suspect that, by the end of the year, HBO will want to do business with Haymon again after they see the quality of fights he puts on network television.

HBO will be desperate to get Wilder/Fury or Wilder/Klithsdko on their network. I think they will also desperately want the Garcia/Peterson vs Guerrero/Thurman winner. If Showtime decides not to do business with Haymon again, Showtime will be the biggest loser.

Show me the contract in writing. I want to see the official contract where Les Moonves legally states that Al Haymon gets no Showtime dates unless Espinoza delivers Mayweather vs Pacquiao.

This is all just more smoke and mirrors from Bob Arum.
