    Hopefully more guys. It seems like a lot of PBC fighters hae fallen off the face of the earth. Like where is Spence, Garcia, Thurman, etc? It's like the guys fight once a year or something.

      If he didn't though, (highly unlikely) that only means you will be seeing PBC fighters start fighting on HBO more regularly which would be amazing but I'm only dreaming. (Most likely not the case)
      Two of the 3 biggest fights this year on HBO have featured Haymon fighters. JCC Jr vs. Canelo and GGG vs Jacobs. The biggest fight they had in 2016 was the Canelo vs Khan fight. Khan is with Haymon. The biggest HBO fight of 2015 was obviously May vs Pac. Mayweather of course is with Haymon.

      Jacobs is still managed by Haymon. If you follow him you'd know that.

        Thurman is hurt.
        Who has called out Spence besides Horn? Dude is flat out avoided.
        Danny Garcia has NEVER only fought once a year.

          Nice move by Hearn & Jacobs. DiBella is crying tonight doe.

          I hope more PBC guys sign with Hearn cuz he's one of two guys promoting today (Schaefer being the other) who seem to have a f#cking clue what fans want & make their best effort to make what fans want a reality

            Andrade was never with Haymon.

                That's not regularly. When there is a card with PBC fighters headlining as the star on HBO, then we can say Haymon and HBO are back in business. As of right now they just are open to doing business for the right fights, but not giving Haymon's fighters actual developmental exposure.

                He could have left Haymon to join HBO, you don't know that.

                  According to Fat Dan, this was done behind Haymon's back.

                  Haymon, however, according to a source with knowledge of the deal with Hearn and HBO, was not aware of or involved in Jacobs' move.
