    He had the right idea but the execution is failing. It doesnt help the guys he hand picked as the face of PBC in Broner, Garcia and Thurman are not impressing or losing. You are as good as your fighters

        Don't really know why it's so difficult for Haymon to pit his top guys against each other when losing is part of the sport. It's not like it's the end of the journey for the losing guy.

        This is the main issue and his supporters would rather ignore it.

          Haymon does not understand that losing is part of the sport. He is not knowledgeable about the sport. He bases everything on the fact that Mayweather has a zero and is the biggest money maker in boxing. Because of that, he believes the most important thing is that a fighter remains unbeaten as long as possible.

            Didn't think it was possible, but your silly Haymon hatred is causing you to actually make a bigger embarrassment out of yourself.

              Idk what some people expect to happen. PBC started in March. So far we've gotten Thurman vs Guerrero, Porter vs Broner, Garcia vs Peterson & we got Mares vs Santa Cruz & seemingly Quillin vs Jacobs going down this year.

              Who besides HBO is putting on top ten fights damn near every month? If you are expecting PBC to do biweekly fights between top ten guys idk that anyone besides the UFC is doing that & its a whole other sport with a setup that allows the top guys to met weekly.

                I love how so many people seem to know what Haymon is all about or thinking or whatever yet the guy barely leaves his house & doesn't speak to the media. Some of ya'll mfers got dropped on your head as babies.

                  His end game has always been money. I dont think the health of the sport or the satisfaction of the fans really plays high on his priorities list. He is very good at convincing people the next big fight is right around the corner so they should pay for this tuneup right now.

                  Right now he is taking a cut out of all the pbc fights, where fighters are being payed 150% + what they normally would make.

                  He is taking 15% or more of their purses.

                  They are being paid from investment money he secured.

                  His end game appears to be to pocket as much of that hedge fund money as he can before they pull the plug on him.

                    Anyone knows when the huge PBC fight coming similar to the Canelo/Cotto fight? There's gotta be something huge coming.

                    Any guesses??

                      Thurman vs Khan may be huge, but not that huge.

                      Wilder vs Klichko could be huge, but I don't think it will happen any time soon.

                      Anything else? I just realized they don't really have many stars despite their numbers.
