    Boxing would be a lot better off with no promoters and networks

    Look at all the fights just at ww that can not and will not happen due to promoters and different networks,It is plain ******. Just have all fighters under 1 umbrella and one network and let the best fight the damn best.

      it would be best if exclusive network contracts were banned and sanctioning bodies actually enforced their own rules

              I did not say anything about Haymon, i am speaking about boxing as a whole,none of it is perfect,to many people against the other and it is stopping great fights

                UFC is actually a great model EXCEPT... the fact that it is still a small number of the actual MMA fighters and unless you are signed with the UFC you can not fight the other fighters except in SPECIAL cases

                  Yup, hopefully PBC/Haymon take over boxing so it can be ONE entity like the NBA or MLB.
