    Comments Thread For: Top Rank Hits Back at Al Haymon With Amended Complaint

    Top Rank has taken another swing at taking on adviser Al Haymon and his boxing enterprise in court. The Las Vegas-based promotional outfit has filed a Second Amended Complaint alleging violations of the Sherman Antitrust Act and California Unfair Competition law.

    The complaint was issued on October 30, the deadline imposed by the judge who dismissed Top Rank’s prior submission two weeks prior. Haymon’s legal team successfully filed a Motion to Dismiss, with the judge ruling on October 16 that the previous complaint lacked the necessary details to proceed to a jury trial, requesting stronger examples to support allegations of unfair competition and violations of the Muhammad Ali act.

          Am i reading this right;

          TR is crying cause PBC puts on 3:1 ratio of fights compared to them

          and

          Cause PBC bought air time which doesnt allow other promoters (TR mainly) to work with them though they havent in YEARS and YEARS

          Now no longer is Ali act in play but they are trying a different route with this Sherman Act

          And citing "social media" quotes.

          REALLY?

                Likely things such as Chavez Jr. posting pictures of his checks with Haymon's name on them. You typically get paid by your promoter, not adviser.

                  Arum is salty because Haymon cornered the lucrative Bounce TV market.
