    Haymon better get his sht straight or else he will sink. He needs to hire a matchmaker and start putting fights that people want to see.

    Roc Nation and Al Haymon will fail the way SMS Promotions failed

    In the end it will still be Top Rank and GBP with possibly Mayweather Promotions

      There is a very select few people on this planet that enjoy watching Lara fight. When Lara is the A side, you got yourself a problem.

        It wasn't the most exciting fight, but I blame Delvin as much as Lara.

        Delvin barely threw anything iirc, that made for an extremely un-eventful fight with only Lara throwing and really doing anything.

        It's true that, with the right opponent, someone like Lara or Rigo can put on a good fight.

        Look at Rigo vs Amagasa or Lara vs Angulo.

Two different styles, a fighter with a pretty big sized fan base. Put him in there with Kirkland and you'll see Lara shine.
          I actually wouldent mind that and will actually be intrigued by it.

            They need to put Lara in there with bigger names. Although with his slick style and poor ratings I don't know if he'll be able to get those shots.

            Overall though it was a bad week for boxing. HBO and Showtime also bombed so it is what it is.
            what exactly were you expecting? i doubt that was considered a bomb

              Not surprised by this at all... but they probably paid out the ass for this... especially with Bieber on the card. He supposedly got a huge deal

                Well thats good for you. However it does affect Lara's chances of landing another fight on cable TV, especially as a headline.

                  LOL, lower ratings than Bellator.

                  PBC is going to crash and burn.

                  Keep giving us these sh***y match ups Hymen

                    They need to put on better fights and do better promotion for the fights. That or set up a tournament of some kind that gives fans a reason to stick around.

                    Lara is better as a main event "opponent" than he is a main event "headliner".

                      Lara also at fault. He had every opportunity to put him away, but never put his foot on the pedal and was content to just boxing at his pace and winning
