      Most Boxing fans are ******

      They hate Don King for ripping fighters off even though he made the biggest events and was good for fans

      On the other hand they hate Al for treating fighters well and matchmaking

        But if you mean deals that were financially bad for the fighter then can't think of any
        Chavez already got busted for illegal duretics and was lazy to boot. What can you do there?

            hes no worse than any other guy running boxing....one might argue hes better...but at worst hes no worse....but he has a target on him because alot of you cant stand floyd...or guys that look and act like floyd....

            how many fighters you know name their kid after their "Advisor"? cause santa cruz did....you ever hear paul williams speak about haymon? i have and its glowing....and p will is an afterthought now and in a wheelchair...but haymon is still in contact with him all the time and p will is taken care of

            qullin is still a millionaire and if done right has money that should last him a lifetime if he spends it and invests it wisely....haymons fighters are well taken care of and he has made a ton of good fights

            its just losers like you who point out every mismatch/showcase fight he does and complain about it like hes the only guy who ever puts these kind of fights on...lol...its pathetic how much some of you loathe haymon and how delusional you can be about his practices

              Al Hamon is a professional at CHERRY PICKING. He gets paid only to make fights that are EASILY PREDICTABLE.

                  Only fighters, managers, promoters who works with him can answer this, how the hell would some random guy on Boxing Scene know? Breadman works with him send this question to him for his Daily Bread thing he does maybe he can finally break things down for those who are just obsessed with Haymon

                    Maybe Wilder not going to DAZN, But that was never going to happen. It would be a horrible look for PBC to Let their big heavyweight star to go another network where Hearn and Golden Boy are. No amount of money was ever going to let wilder go there.

                    But regardless of that, they were offered 100 million for easier fights. Probably ended up getting paid much less for a much more difficult fight against Fury and ultimately got flattened.

                    They really didn’t do what was best for Wilder’s career in this instance simply because they didn’t want to look like they lacked power by letting DAZN taking one of their only real stars.

                      I don't know about Haymon's deals but one thing is for sure: He's keeping his fighters inactive, even before the virus BS, and the match making is mostly ****ty and mediocre.

                      Seeing Lubin last time, I wonder how all these top fighters will come back from the rust. There could be a lot upsets coming. This applies to all fighters across promotions.

                      Haymon and his team wasted Gervonta's huge momentum after Pedraza, by matching him mostly up with duds. Davis is much better than that. Let him loose.
