Al Haymon made the call. Everybody fights everybody in 2017

According to a few sources, actually. But common sense should tell you that this was the plan all along.

The plan was to lose all that money, develop no stars, and get fans to stop watching?

According to Berto, haymon is going make these dudes fight real ones. No more gimmies.

Thoughts?

Lara is fighting Yuri Foreman next. Another gimmie fight brotha.

Haymon's back is against the wall. He needs to produce numbers. It only makes sense that the "building" stage is over and it's time for the brand to perform.

Yep.......

I agree, if he doesn't start putting in his best against each other, he won't make it out of next year imo. It's about time, the days of cherry picking for top dollar are over.

Fantastic if true...

That's because Haymon needs to get rid of unprofitable investments, he's wasting too much money on them

Pbc boxing is like comparing arena football
To the nfl.

Uncle Al needs another huge wave of investments to make those kinds of fights happen. His fighters would be expecting huge money for fighting riskier opponents. If Lara, for example, gets $2 mil for fighting Rodriguez and Zaveck, he would want $2 mil for a fight with Andrade.
