    IT doesn't matter how much the fighters get there the ones putting it all on the line !! Your a real and it's obvious that you don't know any pro fighter !! Clown like you make me sick!!
    Taxi drivers put their life on the line with every stranger they pick up. Should we pay them millions of dollars every night they work also? How about fire fighters? Or policemen?

    No one is forced to become a cop, or a fireman or a taxi driver. Or a boxer. Unless I am the one paying them, what they earn or do not earn is none of my business. If they feel they are taking too much risk for the reward, they can always do something else for a living.

        Let him be, if he wants to pretend to be a spiritual pseudo-accountant for strangers, it's his lookout.

          I'm a boxer fan boy if anything. Who mentioned big fights I was talking about money for any fight. I'm confident Haymon's rates are better than anyones out there 80% of the time for whatever caliber of opponent.

          It seems like Haymon is doing far more for boxing & boxers than anyone else. Haymon is giving fighters their value. If he's giving them more than their value he'll go out of business sooner or later. No big deal. Plus he's putting them in front of a wider audience.

          All the drama is just Haymon hating not fanboyism by guys not anti-Haymon. You're hating, I'm neutral. I wanna see where this goes that may end up being better than where the sport is at. If its not better than its back to the status quo. I am intrigued by what good for the sport could come of this, not gonna lie about that, but that all turns around on a dime if Haymon turns out to be a Arum or King who's just not shown his true colors yet.
          I'm hating who and why? You must be a kid with a narrow life experience...
          You must imagine that Haymon is some kind of a social worker or boxing evangelist... He has about $250-300 million to back up a 2 years long project... And, so far, I didn't hear that Haymon built boxing gyms for young prospects etc -- he's only working for profit and power (like anyone around); which I can understand... But don't give me the "fighter value" bullshit -- you just saw it in Chavez Jr's case...

            cong**** oscar now you started a new cold war in boxing. the pbc is the best thing to happen to boxing fans in a long time and the only ones who wont admit that only reason is they dont like haymon. gbp and top rank talked about how they were going to end the cold war and do this and that for fans and they cant even make fights themselves. Its all bs and the pbc is thebes thing to happen to boxing fans in awhile and i honestly dont get how people cant see that

              Yet PBC fighters are still fighting Haymon guys only, or other bum promoters. While Oscar just had Mattyse fight Ruslan who work for different promoters. It was GBP (hopkins) and Main Event (Kovalev) as another example. Who is still in the cold war again?

                  actually haymon fighters fight everyone except gbp and top rank and if u have not noticed he has way more fighters then they do and has the ability to make good match ups with himself.
