I'd like to see him vs Khan in the future.

Irish people = new york

people will get wrapped up in mikey's return and overlook this fact. It's a nice surprise though, seeing as how the card is only a month away. I still don't understand why they put this card in ny though.

irish population is big in new york and pbc has a deal with barclays! Its big business

[JASON SHAW]

Mikey is with pbc!

until statements get written up, it's likely still in flux; what is clear, though, is that mikey garcia and his camp respect what haymon is doing, mayweather really respects what garcia is doing, and that, and haymon is more than open to work with mikey garcia (with the jacobs-mora fight going elsewhere, a main stage spot opened up on a big show, and garcia is a main stage fighter).

If i had to bet money, i'd say that mikey garcia ends up with haymon/mayweather, but let's see how the run-up to this july fight goes (event caccomodations for mikey and his camp, what type of press exposure can be drummed up for mikey, how hard they actually choose to push mikey, etc)

haymon got mikey a primetime interview on cbs tonight with jim grey which rob arum or oscarina de la homa could never dream of doing!

[JASON SHAW]

Exactly

because carl "the jackal" frampton is from northern ireland, having the event in arguably the world's media capital will help push the fight on both shores, and it'll be easier for the brits to travel over for frampton, in a big fight at one of the premier venues in the united states.

Only other venue that'd be even remotely comparative, in terms of maximizing everything for eveyone, would be at mgm resorts in las vegas.

some of my fellow dumb americans dont understand **** about the boxing business!

Terrible fight...smh

Pbc has a deal with the barclays center

i get the irish angle (which is why they were trying to make jacobs/lee). I guess we'll have to wait and see how many people turn out for frampton. Is it just me, or are a lot of fights taking place in ny lately?

pbc sells a lot of tickets in ny! Wilder is big there and frampton will be as well!

[JASON SHAW]

Haymon pays every star good money!

so haymon? In brooklyn? On an undercard? Haymon musta paid him good money

no one ever complains about the money haymon pays!!!

[JASON SHAW]

Rip golden girl & oscarina de la homa

So he went with Hymen and PBC? What a sell out. Coming back against a bum and will continue to feast on bums.

Good luck with screwing up your career chump.

HE DIDNT WANT TO FIGHT BUMS LIKE KIRKLAND, ANGULO AND GLASS CHIN KHAN AND SMITH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH

[JASON SHAW]

Haymon got him a interview with jim grey

damn didn't realize he has been out 2 1/2 years. That's a long time.
Doesn't seem he has a promoter or i would think he would have said it on the porter/thurman telecast.

none of haymons fighters call him a promoter! He is a manager who takes a commision! If he is fighting on a haymon card he is a haymon fighter! Its not rocket science!

[JASON SHAW]

Your mother is a terrible **** blower

Terrible fight...smh
