You got sports where a weird dude is chopping down a tree with a axe at 3am that draw higher ratings then PBC does for some of their fights. And that sport is not foolishly paying that guy 1m to do it like PBC paid their fighters. That's just ****** business.
    I miss FNF.

            haymon manages those guys and takes a percent. he's a cagey guy. don't count him out yet. haymon's investors may very well get their butts handed to them. if haymon gets the next floyd mayweather in his stable and under contract it may not matter.

                Floyd isn't giving any young fighters a chance to take the throne the way Oscar did. There is no next Floyd or Pacquiao for a very long time.

                Especially since no one is fighting each other to build their names. Look at the name value Floyd and pac had on their resume on their way up. No one is fighting big names lioe that anymore.

                There will be no major ppv seller in the U.S. for a long time.

                Haymon did a great Job using Floyd to create his empire, but he has no idea how to build another Floyd.

                  If Haymon is losing these huge amounts of money, what is he doing to recover them? Is he even trying?
