catching haymon violating the muhammad ali act is like catching avon barksdale from the wire in the room with drugs. i truly believe haymon does act as the promoter and manager but he's able to use people like schaefer to hide the promoter side of him. now that schaefer is gone, he's back to working with dibella and warriors boxing.
Hes not putting any good cards, he had to PAY THEM.
i highly doubt that. i thought it was nbc was coming out the pocket and paying haymon to broadcast his fighters. but it's the other way around which is something that's rarely or never done in boxing. this is a high risk/high reward for haymon. this is more like a 20 mil dollar investment, i'd be shocked if he even thought about putting on another garica-salka card. whether the 24 dates he has go by 2-3 years and rating look good, you better believe it nbc will come out the pocket for negotiations. if ratings tank, then thats 20 mil down the fukking drain.
as far as showtime, espinoza once again needs to be fired (not to mention this dumbass just canceled the showbox series earlier this week
): this deal just showed us haymon used him and showtime for dates to show them bullshyt fights for the remaining for the year.haymon damn near got his own network/platform for his fighters, what does he need showtime for. he has more leverage than ever with them entering 2015.
haymon just might be the savior of boxing
AH knows the PPV is killing boxing; hopefully this move will infuse more interest to the sport to the ones who don't have cable etc.

Showtime will be aiight...Haymon has enough fighters for both Showtime & NBC
I hope Al comes correct with this NBC deal because the only way he is going to get big ratings is by putting on big fights which means he will have to actually start matching top fighters with top fighters.
And that also means that any prospects or guys he is building will get the Showtime treatment because I can't see him giving Showtime any good fights once the NBC deal starts. Espinoza has to be mad as fukk.

i wonder would his fighters make less money
I just hope he takes this shyt across the country an allows some of his fighters to box in their hometowns and try to develop some attractions.
I don't wanna see a bunch of fights in the same damn location.
So this network tv is sounding similar to the uk's boxnation channel?
that or the WWE Network...
