    No what I was saying is that the fight could of been made, that is all. In the end though any split of zero, is zero. Both guys would of made career high paydays so from a business perspective, 50/50 of a fight that actually happens versus zero from a fight that does'nt happen does'nt make much sense. Not to mention the fight is for all the marbles at LHW. All that said though, I just don't care. As a fan I want to see mother****ers fight, its getting old having to talk about the politics more often than not because of all the BS. **** HBO, PBC, Arum, Haymon, GB or any other clown that gets in the way of giving fans what they want and deserve.

            Why weren't you able to replicate what Haymon did if you're so smart?

                    Call me when Lara fights one of the Charlo brothers. Then we can discuss about Haymon working with other promoters. Bottom line is Haymon is averse to pitting top fighters against each other even in his own camp let alone pit them outside of the camp. He does it in very rare cases. Pointless thread.

                      well the latest Waddell & Reed quarterly filing shows the fund down like $310 million, but they committed $425 million to the project and I dont think they can retract it, so when the smoke clears the losses will be over $400 million......
