casual-fans talk utter bollocks
from the other thread.....
“Danny and I never make a decision without us talking it over with Al and checking on his insight. Al doesn’t do anything without me knowing about it and I don’t do anything without Al knowing about it. We always do what’s best for Danny as a team. Al and I usually agree on things 99.9 percent of the time. We never make any major decisions without both of us agreeing on it.”
“At the end of the day, Al and I always have the same equation with all of these fighters,” said Connolly. “We give them the best advice that we can, and, ultimately, we always allow them to do what they think is in the best interest of their careers.”

and there it is.....
newer fans need to take note:
FACT: fighters have the last word on their career path
they sign off on EVERY fight, and EVERY opponent
to suggest otherwise is utter bollocks
I first noticed the " but Arum doe " excuses with Pacquiao
to justify Pac's shltty Top Rank in-house opponent selection
then I saw that excuse shift to Haymon, and others
what utter bollocks
every single fighter is 100% responsible - therefore accountable - for their own resume
for proof (as if you need proof to justify common-sense).....
you hear lower-level/older fighters turning down offers all the time
you also hear about fighters like Garcia being shelved or waiting out their contract..... again, that happens ALL THE TIME
you guys who have become accustomed to blaming promoters for your guys SHlTTY opponent selection are.....

please god, let the casual-fan nonsense stop
FACT: Golovkin is 100% responsible - therefore accountable - for his poor resume
