    Linares is the biggest fight at mikey weight. He isn't jumping from 135 to 147. So you have to look at opponents at 135 and the weight below and above that. Golden Boy has either signed or fight options on Linares, corrales, Gamboa, vargas, salido, miura, berchelt, orozco. And better chance landing big fight with top rank fighters with golden boy then haymon.

    If he wants to leap up 2 weight classes then haymon has GREAT options. But if he wants to stay at 135 Golden boy provides more big fight options.

      This is a good signing. But does it make the Lomachenko fight harder to make?

        So you name 7 guys that aren't even in his weight class and call them big fights lol got it.

        If Oscar no arum haven't worked together in like 2 years while Haymon is actively working with arum... how does that mean Oscar and arum will suddenly work together??

          I named fighters that all can easily move up 5lbs to fight mikey and guys at 135. Now you name the big names haymon can offer? Stop bringing up examples of haymon sending guys he doesn't care about who are huge underdogs to get knocked out by top arum guys. You know damn well haymon doesn't send top guys to fight arum top guys you also have network issues. Golden boy much more likely to strike a deal to fight top arum HBO fighters then haymon.

            Felix Diaz is not sum bum to be Crawford punching bag. With Haymon mikey can fight Dejan(already did) Easter, rances, fortuna, commey, edner cherry. Those are at 135 already. Plus the top rank fighters. Oscar and arum aren't working together anytime soon

              Just a ploy to get better offers from other bidders. Although he might sign with GBP. It would be a breath of fresh air for GBP whos not doing too well.

                None of those are bigger fights then what I named. And Diaz is a huge underdog, currently ranked 18th at 140 by boxrec and not on ring or espn top 10 rankings for 140. Diaz is not a top haymon fighter. Whether you want to go by rankings or by name value the guys I mentioned are all bigger fights then the guys you mentioned.

                If Mikey was so thrilled by PBC options why isn't he name dropping any of these guys for fights he wants? Why is he mentioning golden boy and top rank fighters instead? Why is he talking with Oscar about signing with golden boy a couple weeks ago? And why is he now showing up at his events rocking golden boy hats? You don't do all that if you happy with the PBC fighters haymon has to offer.

                  If you've heard him talk recently, where he talks about having no boss (unlike Loma, as he says), I don't think he's going to get tied down to one promoter again. Now, GBP might make him a mega offer but it's smart for him to remain unattached and doing it on a fight-by-fight basis. I don't understand why more fighters don't do this and instead get ****** into the politics.
