Comments Thread For: Top Rank, Al Haymon Legal Battle Comes To a Close

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

There's certainly no guarantee that the winner of the June 25 showdown between Keith Thurman and Shawn Porter will go on to face Timothy Bradley Jr. or Jessie Vargas but for the first time in a long time, boxing fans can actually theorize such a matchup without the sport's politics making it a non-starter.

I'll take Pac-May II if it means more fights from PBC and TR. I enjoyed the first fight. What else is going on in Sept? GGG-Canelo ain't happening so they might as well fill the date with a big fight.

From the outside looking in and reading what i have it seems

1. Bob knew he couldnt win this lawsuit so why waste the money on both sides
2. HBO is backing away from the sport and pouring less and less money into it evident by Crawford/Postol having to be a PPV
3. PBC has the fighters, time slots and networks that Bob craves
4. Bob stable is running dry as we saw in Bradley/Pac 3

IMO i see it as "If you cant beat them, join them"

Which is great for us fans. IF thats what is happening.

It means they came to an agreement and neither side can talk about it. That's it.




Well one part was interesting. The part where it said Top Rank stopped asking for documents from the "sham" promoters like DiBella and Warriors. And a couple of weeks ago Scipio2009 said that's probably because Haymon/PBC had started asking for documents concerning Pacquiao and others from Top Rank. But anyway as long as they start working together that's a good thing.

It appears that Bob ditched his lawsuit in favor of a handout.
