Haymon is using leverage like every other business person does. Just like Lou said on the podcast. They all use leverage. You're saying if Al was a regular promoter he'd be willing to share less with his fighters. His days as a concert promoter he shared more with the acts than other promoters. That's how he took $10,000 and became the most successful music promoter in the business. You don't turn $10k into hundreds of millions by taking advantage of people. You do it by being a good businessman who people want to work with. As a manager he's also giving more to his fighters. His percentage is smaller than other managers and for some fights he doesn't get paid at all unless the fighter gets a certain dollar amount. You claim he's blown thru more money than HBO's budget the last 10 years. That's called start up costs. And you don't know exactly how much money he's spent. Nobody knows. Just like Lou said on the podcast somebody took a post from reddit and ran with it. Everything is speculation. Yea Haymon is blocking all the big fights. Like GGG and Cotto. Or GGG and Ward. Or GGG and Canelo. Or Gonzalez and Estrada. Or Pacquiao and Crawford. Or Crawford and Postol. Yep, Haymon is responsible for all the big fights not happening. I hated that he blocked Bowe and Lewis. And Pryor and Leonard. That damn Haymon! Big fights have always been prevented and will continue to not happen with or without Haymon in the game. Haymon and his evil plan to make boxers more money and bring boxing back to the mainstream. That guy sucks. Boxing was once run by the mob but evil Haymon is gonna destroy it. FOH!

After listening to Dibella i'm 100% certain he reads AND posts here on boxingscene.Comment

Lou started this interview pretty decent and then turned into a jerk. There's no way he doesn't either post here or frequent these threadsComment

Yeah for sure , I think allot of people in the sport frequent these type of threads to get a pulse of what's going on, Don't think allot of them post because they don't want to get involved in this low life f.uckery that goes on here but they defiantly read it probably just to laugh at how ******ed boxing fans are.
Got to disagree with you though thought Lou was bringing the heat for the entire interview good to hear his perspective on things and actually agreed with him him on almost everything he talked about.
He was a bit disrespectful but the interviewer is aligned with Steve Kim so probably assumed that he was a biased POS like Kim and Rafeal are and the way he conducted the interview would make it seem he is, But he held his own and did a good job I subscribed to the podcast after listening,Talk about a tough first day on the job though.Comment

Lou's reactions were justified.
Key man clause? Just look at MLB. Joe Maddon had a key man clause with Andrew Friedman. When Friedman left the Rays for the Dodgers, Maddon became a free agent and went to the Cubs. The host makes this clause seem ****-like with his tone. As if Schaefer invented this clause.
I also loved when the host played down Thurman-Porter because it is happening 4 months later than he wanted. Really? Did either of them lose in that time period? Did either of them magically lose their prime? Will that guy talk down Canelo-Golovkin if it happens in 2017, over a year after it should have happened?
No. He's nitpicking. Looking for things to hate on. Just like the rest of the Max Boxing clowns like Steve Kim, Hauser, Dookie Fischer, and that other wannabe. Lou took a poop on that entire clan.Comment

I actually thought DiBella was a complete douche to the host. The guy was just asking general questions and Dibella actually brought up most of the PBC stuff.
The host didn't go after him or ask any tough questions.
I actually wouldn't blame Lou if he had a problem with someone like Steve Kim, but I didn't think it was fair to go after this guy, he really didn't seem out to grill him or anything. If he wants to yell at Steve Kim, then he should yell at Steve Kim.Comment
