Comments Thread For: Arum Explains Haymon Factor in Making Pacquiao-Khan

[Deevel916]

Like I SAID yesterday.

Fat dan said Khan is the very few fighters whose deal with Haymon is to work on a fight by fight basis. Meaning Khan can leave his management services at anytime he wants.

Good thing with Khan is, It's my understanding that he and his family are very financially well off. Its not like typical Haymon fighters where you can throw money at them and have them eating out of your hand.

lol i love how all the blame is on haymon even tho he works with more promotions then top rank or golden boy. people need to start cutting thru the emotion and see it for what it is. gbp and tr are playing pr games trying to get the fans on their side. as long as haymon is allowing his fighters to enter purse bids when the others are not tells me everything i need to know.

Im not saying haymon has no blame but lets quit pretending top rank and gbp are somehow doing everything in their power to make fights with haymon. they both sued him for one and 2 haymon has actually shown to be the one willing to work with all networks and promotions. Honestly imo top rank gbp and hbo seem to be the true problem these days. they set up all their promotions and fighters contracts in a way where it makes it pretty much impossible to make fights then on top of that they dont even allow their fighters to enter purse bids.

Im sorry but i see through the gbp and top rank pr games they play. its like everyone already forgot the whole pr campaign they did about ending the cold war. How has that worked out?

And what happens when Haymon loses those purse bids? Quillen/Korobov
Arum let Lomenchenko-Russel go to purse and be on showtime didn't he?
Don't act like Haymon is calling BOB trying to make fights, they both don't wanna work with each other.

"According to the Khan people"

The Khan people are mostly taxi drivers from Bolton, aren't they? Would be typical of them to think that they can go over Haymon's head to make this fight.

Khan doesnt need Haymon

Haymon is nothing but a manager

Khan is in charge of his own promotion...he can do the deal and give Haymon his managerial fee...

Khan will fight Pac, while Brook fights bums like Frankie Gavin and Chaves...

Khan's people are financially more well off than Kell Brook, not bad for some "Taxi drivers from Bolton" is it?

As it's been highlighted before, Khan is not on a long term deal with Al Haymon, it's on a fight to fight basis. Khan is under his own Khan Promotions and does not need Haymon's approval for a fight.

Khan needs to seriously think about dropping haymon. There is no debate his career and reputation has taken a massive hit since getting in bed with him. If you remember he was signed only to golden boy and agreed to fight devon for the belt at 147 then something happened and he pulled out. Rumors were he was signing to haymon who promised to get him a fight with Floyd and he was pulling out the fight to avoid the risk of losing. Months later he officially signs and has been turning down big money fights and title shots at 147 ever since trying to back into a fight with Floyd that haymon promised him. Problem is Floyd unlike any other haymon fighters has the power to say no to haymon and clearly Floyd isn't fighting him.

Yeah....the Khan's are saying this. I'll wait for something more credible.

Khan has wasted 2 years of his prime for nothing and seen his image dragged through the mud because of bad mismatches by haymon. If he fought devon instead of backing out to sign with haymon he would of kept the belt away from brook saved embarrassment and would of had 2-3 big money fights by now that increase his wallet and legacy. Signing to haymon = huge fail.
