overpaying fighters(another example of hypocritical double standards)

[R_Walken]

Refuse to over pay Wilder...and we refuse for Wider to over pay us!!!! More like it

Yeah exactly more Hearn double speak

I’m the greediest person I know I want to go where the most $ is or My main objective is to get my fighters paid the most they can to all of a sudden it’s not about the $ and We’re willing to take a paycut because we’ve earned the right to have AJ/Wilder in the UK

what is enough?

how is the situation not good for boxing if most people recognize al is putting on the best shows, overall, in boxing?[1]

you guys act as if hearn would sign broner and put him in with brook, khan and t crawford in a year...lol....

like i said...everyone was complaining about broner and askin how hes still gets fights

now people are acting suped that hes gonna fight 3x in a year...lol

the point was...if haymon was overpaying guys why are you guys cheerleading hearn to pay them more than what haymon was? that was the point/question [2]

[1] Simple. His best fighter's aren't active. Or you saying for example Spence fighting a grand total of 1 time last year is good for boxing?

I'ma ignore all the Broner crap because i've not once mentioned him at all.

[2] To reiterate what i've already said: Overpaying fighters is only an issue if overpaying them results in there not being enough budget for fighters to remain active. Doesn't seem like Haymon has the backing anymore to continue to pay his guys the fees he has been paying and as such they're just not fighting so he doesn't have to fork out too much.

That may end up being the same kind of deal if some of Haymon's fighters sign with Hearn but we don't really know that for sure. Though we do know that Hearn will be putting on a fair few shows this year (can't remember the exact amount) so the likelihood is whoever he signs will actually be active... for a while at least.

No one has put on better fights than Haymon over the past 2-3 years.

Really? When was the last time a Haymon event won FOTY or even came close.

What you've just said is subjective. For every fight you think was great because you're emotionally invested in the fighters and their culture identity..I can name you a non-haymon fight I think was just as good.

How is that statement subjective ?

Haymon and PBC the last 3 years have put on the most fights where it’s the best fighting the best in the division ( top 10 vs top 10 ) which as a boxing fan is what you should want and care about

It’s not even close I bet if you look at all the fights the PBC or their affiliated fighters has more best vs best fights then all the other en****** combined

This year as a example from the top of my head HBO , Top Rank , Matchroom have had

Rungsai vs Estrada
AJ vs Parker
Valdez vs Quigg
Bivol vs Barrera
Loma vs Linares
Horn vs Crawford ( next week )

Throw in the WBSS with

Groves / Eubank
Gassiev / Dorticos
Usyk/ Breidis

That’s 9 maybe I left out a couple

PBC affiliates so far have

Spence / Lamont
Hurd / Lara
Wilder /Ortiz
Santa Cruz / Mares
Adonis / Jack
Garcia / Lipinets
Frampton / Donaire
Russell / Diaz
Broner / Vargas
Degeale / Truax
Charlo / Trout

That’s at least 11

As far as FOTY it’s 1 fight and subjective and yeah they’re great fights for their entertainment but rarely the winner is a fight that determines the best guy in the division

Sure. So go ahead. Make the comparison. Compare last year and this year, for instance.
