Comments Thread For: Arum: 'The Cancer' Al Haymon Will Prevent Crawford-Spence!

[gioberi]

Its so terrible when cancer is taking your biggest star fighter.

This fight can be made if it goes to Fox or Showtime. Spence got 4 fighters he can face Thurman, Porter, and both Garcias. Crawford has no one to fight but getting paid big bucks on ESPN so T.R and ESPN is starting to get desperate.. You cant call another man a cancer and expect him to work with u.

Funny I knew Steve Kim would put this out there. Anything someone says bad about Haymon is always written by him. He should stick to Goldenboy's website.

Exactly.

Must be nice for Arum to have his own personal media attack dogs at his beck and call.

Salty about Pacquiao? He is over the hill already get over it

Send the motherfking contract! It makes sense because Mayweather always thanks Haymon for directing his business career,, He probably advised Floyd to dodge everyone in their Prime.
That being said I wouldn't be that surprised if Haymon used the same tactic with other PBC Fighters.

Randomly comments like this is exactly why Haymon needs to come out of the shadows more. He needs to come out verbally smack some mfers around with whats really happening & then go back under for 12-18 months. People & I myself have said managers & people in Haymon's position often don't talk to the media, but the thing is Haymon is just a regular manager type guy. He's transcended the sport & he's a unique player vs the other players in this game. He's one of a kind in this sphere. He needs to own that sh^t & just talk to the media every now & again just to let mfers know whats up so they can't step on his name in public like Bob & Eddie & some others do so casually. I feel like Haymon can hold his own & them some with his genuine mfer persona that isn't about a lot of bs. But thats just my opinion as a Haymon fan who believes he's allowing his brand to be defined by dipsh^ts & it also hurts the PBC brand & his fighters by having these things in the media all the time without any retort by him.

he even has drake rapping about em "Al Haymon checks off of all of my events"

what haymon did was very smart he leverage his talent against teh stadiums etc and now the stadium etc were paying them to have their show stheirs not the other way around. This is one of the way haymons was able to generate more cash for his talent off the same thing/

yup this is just Sleight of hand, He says the Cancer (al haymon) all he has to do is call them to make the fight that crawford wants it. Okay Why cant you (bob arum, Toprank) call him? Why insult the man for doing absolutely nothing unless you want to drive the wedge between you guys and sabatoge the chance of negotiating in the first place?

Right Arum making excuses he knows Lomo would get his ass handed to him by Mikey and Spence is a threat to Crawford as well. So he runs to the media to manipulate anyone who will believe his lies.

So Bob wants the fight now, and Haymon should run and get it for him. Cause Crawford has no one else to fight

I'm no fan of Haymon but... when Arum call you a cancer! lol

[Scipio2009]

Regardless of your personal feelings toward the half dead Arum, he HAS made big fights with many a promoter, also to note is hes outlived the vast majority of them as well. DuBoef is the heir apparent I believe, and hes always down to match fighters. Question is, why are most others willing to and not Haymon? I get it it they have a huge stable, but at one point so did TR and they got sh.it on for their retreads. Will pbc aligned fans do the same? Its only a matter of time

Bob Arum is fine matching fights as long as you are bending the knee to Top Rank. Arum bends the knee to no one, even if he's getting $150m for just showing up.

People aren't dumb.
