    Has Al Haymon Floyd's best interest in mind?

    Al Haymon is still negotiating for Floyd Mayweather although he is now a biased player in the market running shows on NBC, NBC Sports and Spike.

    Do you really think Al Haymon has Floyd's best interest in mind, now when he competes against HBO and Showtime?

        Answer D doesnt make sense. Haymons money directly correlates with how much money Floyd makes. And its PPV. WHile it might be tied to HBO and Showtime it's not like a gift fight to boost HBO and Showtime ratings.

                Al Haymon is aiming for maximum revenue from commercials on NBC. His aim might very well be to reach Super Bowl levels.

                Edit: You are correct. Haymon will not be able to support Floyd's purse with only commercials from NBC.

                  Haymon's money so far has been percentage on Floyd's income, but that has totally changed now when he is running his own shows where he will also receive money from many other channels, for example from commercials.

                    Mayweather don't need Network TV Exposure, he is already at the very top of the sport as far as making money and being known. I think Haymon use Mayweather as a Negotiation Ploy...AND WHY NOT! He helped Mayweather become the Highest Paid Athlete In The World, that should be his SELLING POINT to not only other fighters but Networks as well!
