Al Haymon Slave Contract Revealed!!

...What the fighter think?
I'm not seeing Fighters taking Haymon to court and filing Law Suits against him
Vanes Martyrosian wanted his release and got it with no issues. Also Beterbiev wanted his release and got it which helped him get out of a deal with Yvon Michel
I know it is a little anti Haymon movement going on because he has a TON of talent that other promoters and platform wants so they think defaming his name will somehow make fighter up and leave him but it wont work. He treat fighters GREAT, has paid off Family Medical Bills for fighters, gotten guys out of TAX Issues among other things
It is not a contracts that is making fighters loyal to him. So it really doesn't matter what Promoters and fans THINK because he don't work them, he work for the fighters and his fighters all seems very happy
The manager's role is to maximize the fighters profit, the promoters role is to maximize his own.
Those conflict.
And so does Al Haymon. Otherwise he wouldn't reject his guys making more money elsewhere.Comment

You don't understand the job of managing it sounds like.
You think Brad Pitt's manager is only getting him 15% of his films? Nah he's finding him & getting 15% of some Japanese beer ad check to. Same with Haymon.
A promoter doing this is f#cked up. A manager doing it is standard.Comment

To be honest, I don't understand why anyone would sign with Haymon, and also stick with additonal managers and promoters. There was nothing in that contract shown to suggest it could be considered as a slave contract. Yes, a fighter would need written approval from the advisor to take a fight, but at the same time, the athlete can't be forced by the advisor to take a fight that they don't want.
hence the slave contract.
Pretty obvious.Comment

Naw, keeping a low profile has gotten him this far. He became the most successful music promoter in history and changed the way promotion companies work. He's become the most successful boxing manager in history and changed the boxing game. There is no benefit to him doing interviews for boxing fans. And you know we gotta keep a low profile and stay under the radar when we're that successful. We can't be out here like the Arum's & Hearns'.Comment

Standard in ANY contract where you have a manager. It's not just boxing.
NFL, NBA, all sports have similar clauses.
I remember back when AFL and XFL were talking about breaking that and making open leagues where people could go wherever they wanted. Notice both of them failed miserably. (XFL coming back but without any of the nonsense this time).
UFC fighters including McGregor can't just up and say "I am fighting so and so" - they have to clear it with Dana and if he says no, the fight isn't happening.
You have no clue about sports management at all.Comment

His story is well known about his Brother being a Boxer and him getting into boxing after seeing how his Brother was treated as a Boxer. Haymon doesn't "NEED BOXING" compared to these Promoters
He helped make Mayweather the Wealthiest Boxer this sport has ever seen so his track record is PROVEN. He knows WTF he is doing while you have people on a forum trying to tell boxers what the should do and what deals that should take when they themselves don't even have their own sh#t together financially
It is like someone FAT trying to tell people how to get in shapeLast edited by sicko; 05-04-2019, 10:21 PM.Comment

Haymon has already "Maximized His Own" when he sold half of his Concert Promoter to Live Nation for A LOT of money.

Genius!
There's literally a law against what he's doing, except he's hiding under the title 'advisor', which is quite clearly not accurate when he has a management contract.Comment
