    Why can't Haymon produce big stars...

    most of his fighters lack any sort of momentum, when they come off a good win they are usually left inactive or fight weak opposition. whereas you have someone like hearn constantly trying to whip interest in his events and his fighters, haymon just stays in the background. never really any glamour or excitement surrounding his events, theres never a 'big event' feel to them, undercards are usually trash too.

      Because his events lack the production quality and marketing skills to create a lasting impression on people. His fights suck. Only poor people watch PBC.

        Inactivity has to be the big reason.

          How many Canelo level stars are there in boxing now? Two? And one of them is Canelo.

            There is no star like Canelo in the world of boxing today. So with that said, there is no real cross over star like Floyd or Pac. Like him or not he takes risks and he fights everyone and doesn’t duck anyone. His resume is the best in the world today out of the top 10 pfp fighters imo.

              One of the reasons is that Canelo and Cotto have PR and Mexico support. Like the UK with guys like Froch, Calzaghe etc, the same with Mexico and Puerto Rico. Country support goes a long way.

                    My question is

                    What makes Genricks real life so miserable that his only form of comfort and thing that brings him joy is going on a boxing forum and hating on 1 individual and anything/anyone associated with them
