Comments Thread For: Daniel Jacobs: I'm Truly Excited To Join HBO and Matchroom!

[jqSide]

Don't know why it's such a big issue whether Haymon is still Jacobs' advisor or not. Real issue is why Jacobs gets involved with HBO at all. What about Showtime? Are they no longer relevant or what?

Hbo needs guys and threw money at Jacobs, showtime is loaded..

I would bet on Haymon's PR guys getting onto fat dan to alter the article to save face, if it looks like his fighters are doing things without consulting him he'll look like he's not in control.

The company I work for has done a similar thing several times with online newspapers.

And what of Fat Dan's face? Or, FD fears Al Haymon so much that he cares not about his own face? LOL.

Funny you with this sort of conspiracy theory. Next thing, you'll say FD has been paid off by AH. Ha.

BTW, what's wrong with old school, straightforward, less complicated thinking, such as, "Fat Dan simply goofed with his initial take?"

As long as haymon doesn't get in the way and start demanding million+ paydays against sergio mora's this is great for hbo.hopefully Spence opens his eyes and gets a real promoter too

Looks like fighters are finally starting to realize Al Haymon is only in it for himself. 80% of his stable does not fight, he blew all the investment $, he lost all of his tv contracts except 1. His experiment failed because instead of beating the competition with a better product, he wasted all his $ on trying to monopolize the sport.

Just by how his fighters talk about him it's pretty obvious he's not in it for himself. Quillain threatened to retire if haymon was banned, Leo Santa Cruz named his son after him and did you see gurreros retirement statement? 1/4 of it was essentially a love letter to haymon. He may be a lot of things but he's definitely about taking care of his guys.

Of course LSC loves him he gets paid 1 million for fighting bums. So you list 3 overpaid fighters among 200. And just exactly how is he taking care of the fighters when the vast majority of them do not even fight. Fighters not fighting means they are not making money. Fighters not making money means they can't take care of themselves or their families. So exactly how is he taking care of his fighters if none of them can actually earn a living because he can't or won't get them fights? I wonder how many have 2nd jobs outside of boxing because Haymon ****ed up their careers.

Believe me, in 5-7yrs a lot of his former boxers will be suing him. The same thing happened with King, yrs later many boxers sued him, Norris, Tyson, Chavez. Same thing will happen to Haymon when a lot of his former fighters will be broke because he mismanaged and defrauded them.

I’m happy for Danny. This might be the only way he gets a ggg rematch. Hopefully he gets great opponents and not bs bum fights.

"Being active" very key

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.

Yep. One time a yr fighters. Spence had great win and where is he now? Its too bad. Hope jacobs fights 3xyr now and i hope others follow suit. I hate seeing whats happening to all these guys there once was excitement for
