It's kinda funny to watch guys like Raphael and Kim create a narrative based on hearsay. And falling flat on their faces. The posters in here follow suit.

Remember when Espinoza was going to be fired because of that horrible deal he gave Floyd?

Floyd fighting Cotto again instead of Pacquiao?

PBC had spent $500m in their first three months according to these guys and were finished

Haymon was secretly washing his money and was being watched by the Feds

Haymon had duped the suits at all these funds and networks who couldn't see his get rich quick scheme

Now it's PBC is going out of business (for the fourth time in 9 months). What's sad is that if they had any common or business sense, they'd see that signs point in an entirely different direction. But they don't have that sense so I look forward to them being wrong again and the f*kkheads on this site continuing to follow them.

Not a good enough excuse. Not like they're paying him any serious money.

Hahaha ....you are too funny....The Ring Magazine that you call gbp mag is the one haymon wanted to buy...golden boy promotions is what haymon also wanted to buy...the problem with this is that he stole in a sophisticated way(instead of using a gun he used a pen) the fighters that were promoted by gbp and you know stealing is stealing...that is why haymon has that $300 million albatross ....in life you gotta do what is right or the product of the actions will be misfortune....haymon doesnt have any skin on the game...can you imagine the intrest on the money loaned to him and by the way the investors that prop up the hedge fund are sueing the hedge fund for investing in a risky way with Protecting Boxing Cowards.

I definitely agree with Lampley's take that boxing fans like to & wanna see some of the stuff HBO, Showtime & PPV offer that PBC or "free TV" boxing doesn't & you can't put the genie back in the bottle with that for the current boxing fan, BUT the reality is there are likely boxing fans in hiding lol since elite boxing went away to the premium cable channels that have lil to no f#cks to give about that & are just glad to see boxing on free TV. And there is likely to be a completely new found audience of boxing fans that are here & growing or will be coming as boxing on free TV becomes more of the status quo.

The funniest thing about a lot of what Lampley said is it could be directed at HBO themselves. HBO has dropped the ball in the last couple years & most of the HBO cards worth watching I need to throw $60 at or risk 5 years in prison & a $100,000 fine to watch illegally. Clearly HBO is the leader of boxing over the last several decades & their model depends on PPV. So f#cking obviously they are against the model that'll hurt there bottom line so this isn't such a surprising thing for HBO to talk about regardless of what is going on with PBC behind the scenes.

And I'll still take the over on the guys saying PBC is on the way out as we speak cuz all these guys giving & taking money don't have the ego or ******ity of your cousin who lights his farts on fire to have just stated they have a 4-5 year plan & then spend all their money like Richard Pryor in Brewsters Millions cuz its burning a hole in their pocket or some poorly designed ponzi scheme.
