So we all have seen it the last few months the subtle jabs from arum towards HBO about how they are not willing to spend money and there just is not enough air time for all the promoters and fighters. I just ask because I think we are at a breaking point in a good way. Even haymon is now working with pretty much anybody even GBP and HBO as we are seeing with the khan canelo bout and even the GGG fight.
The reason I ask this tho is Arum made it clear that he doesnt like how HBO tries to run a monopoly which is surprising to say the least with the haymon litigation and their partnership over the years and what not. It makes me wonder if top rank is about to cross the street again and start working with showtime or maybe another network as well.
In my opinion if top rank starts using hbo and showtime its better for boxing. When you have competing networks trying to out bid the other bigger fights seem to be made. it would also open up more avenues for his fighters and chances for fighters like crawford to fight guys he cant now.
This thread doesnt have a specific question just wanted to start a dialogue about how it seems like all the networks/promoters/managers are at a breaking point and something has to give as far as them working together. It seems like they all tried to goto hbo and blackball haymon but they are realizing their is not enough air time, money, or even top level fighters to truly work with hbo alone.
What do you guys think do you sense maybe some good things breaking soon? Or do you think the litigation against PBC and such is just to much to overcome and the the norm will continue?
