Originally posted by deanrw View PostHaymon is just bad for everyone else's business. I personally do not have an issue with what he is doing, but I hope and pray he improves the quality of those PBC shows. They feel like boxing watered down. The energy of the events are non existent.
As for the Arum's, Oscar's etc. Instead of griping and suing, how about investing some of the money you made back into the sport also. Haymon is taking a huge risk paying free networks to broadcast his shows. Arum talked about it lots, but never did it. Oscar never even talked about it.
The sport is so lowstream now, that I doubt Haymon's vision will be a big success in the long run, but at least he is trying. He might find a niche, but unless he captures some WOW factor in his shows, he will have a hard time capturing the "addicted" type of viewers.
Haymon is not waiting on HBO or Showtime. He's putting his own mone (well investor money) and taking huge risks. And I as a boxing fan have to applaud that.

@WaifuCru @steveucnlive so far Ive resisted the urge to look into exactly what the Ali Act says/remedies it provides. SEEMS toothless

Originally posted by ramplamp View Postoh so the "only" promoters he refuses to work with are the two other biggest promoters. and what obvious reasons? it seems pretty clear to me that Arum and Oscar would both be willing to repair burnt bridges in order to make the fights that make sense. Haymon and Schaeffer are like bratty little girls who couldn't care less about the fans. That's why we'll just keep seeing mismatches for Thurman, Khan, Santa Cruz, Quillin, Garcia and all the other fighters on the Haymon roster. Until hopefully one day the ship collapses.
Dibella and Goosen Tutor are experienced players in this game that have paid their dues and put on hundreds of great cards over the years.
