    Its interesting to watch how Haymon put the screws to ODH. I get that LSC is Haymon's biggest Mexican fighter as of now and he is protecting him to a degree. I can't see Haymon sabotaging his deal with NBC by putting on all easy fights for his guys everytime out. he'd be cutting off his nose to spite his face.

        Yeah. Don't let the door hit ya in the ass on your way out, right?

        As far as DLH forcing Haymon's hand in regards to LSC, I don't see what he accomplishes other than making the point that they have no wish to face Rigo in the near future.

        Then again, it's tough to see the whole board and all the pieces from up here in the cheap seats in the peanut gallery...

        Hope you're right about the sport being about to blow up though.

          I know who I'm talking to here and that in all likelihood it's the first one you bothered to watch since Tyson lost to Lewis and decided overnight that it was at an "all-time low".
          You may be correct, but its still the best TV fight this year. don't deflect from the point, this is about your post, not what HWT fights I watched.

          Haymon has not been bad this year. You should be honest about that. If you are going to MMA because he is making the better fights and Bob's fights are not materializing, then go.

          You wont be missed.

            Do you actually think anyone cares about this bob vs al crap? bob arum can choke on a turd

            Only the top 0.00001% of obsessive compulsive floyd/pac maniacs even follow that storyline

            Boxing is slow, the best fight on the horizon is matthysse-provodnikov and coincidentally matthysse had to leave haymon to make it

            It seems the only defense people have for Haymon's industrialized ducking protocol is accusing people of "secretly loving oscar/bob".

            Yeah, I have posters all over my bedroom walls of Bob Arum, I can't get enough of that guy!

              Dude what's so hard to understand?? Lsc had a contractual clause with golden boy that let him buy out his contract his team decided to buy out his contract that they legally had a right to? I don't think you understand whats going on here when using terms like "bullied"Oscar wasn't bullied he started to negotiate a fight lsc was advised not to take and bought his contract out.

                Time to hang it up Oscar. This promoting thing ain't for you. Couldn't get Cotto, Couldn't get this fight, Hop is retiring after one more and he lost 90% of his stable LMFAO

                  I agree with that. The only way his plan can be sustainable is by putting on compelling match ups.

                      How is that better than danny v Petersen when they are better fighters in the same division?

                      come on man, if you are upset al is actually doing good things for the sport then its best you do go to MMA.
