Essential The Official Boxing Random Thoughts Thread...All boxing heads ENTER.

[theflyest]

nikkas gon start getting one week banned off of just suggesting a fight.

#Kirkland/Porter

I'll be happy to see Kirkland fight ANYBODY. This dude can fight someone with a losing record & I'll be cool with it. He's another nygga i don't think is fighting in 2015.

He's in his earning years & he's blowing it. You don't get these years back.

 

[LauderdaleBoss]

Suggested?

Jesus Christ..............

It's a joke breh. I actually agree with your Original post on the subject.

 

[SuikodenII]

breh we've been getting our hopes for legit fights that happened and got disappointed...thats a slippery slope

There's a difference between actual sources reporting on negotiations and this......

 

[krackdagawd]

I got you my Dominican Dreamboat breh

For all my #SOGGANG brehs like @krackdagawd and @Newzz :

I got great news from a source(no Broussard) on the SOG front.

He was bought out of his deal and guess who he signed with...

I hate to break it to @theflyest and the other haters, but he's back.....





....and there's nothing you can do about it.

Nothing you can do season has returned

#SOGGang

#SOGGang....If this is true, we back in business brehs


@theflyest @Black_Jesus @LauderdaleBoss @GREENandYELLOW @firemanBk and the rest of you SOG haters and #GGGoodBoys.....?

[L68]

ward is a commentator now..just accept it

 

[MIAlien]

No link?
No source?

You stand by your word, correct?

How about a one month ban from TheColi if this stands to be false information? Getting people's hopes up for the return of #2 P4P ain't cool

#SOGGang doesnt take month or lifetime ban bets....we need to keep our infantry strong


Maybe a 1 week ban bet would suffice, if he agrees


What would our loyal soldier get in return if he agrees and is indeed correct?

If I'm wrong, I'll take whatever ban you want. I'm that sure. And if there was a link you wouldn't need my post so I wouldn't bother.

And my source is 100%. I had this info a while ago. I just waited for full confirmation. It's going to be announced fight week for their January card.

I just wanted to give my coli brehs the good news a few weeks in advance.

Good inside info on Al Haymon:
http://ucnlive.com/working-haymon/

“People ask me that a lot of times and I’m being as honest as I can be; Al Haymon is the kind of guy that will ask you who you want, who you can beat and he’ll give you the option. So when you see guys who don’t fight tough, it’s not him telling them not to fight tough; it’s their guys and their teams saying, ‘We don’t want to fight tough’ and, of course, he’s going to accommodate you because that’s his job to accommodate you,” said Edwards on the afternoon on Dec. 4 at the Undisputed Gym in San Carlos, California.

“So when people say that, I always say, ‘If Al Haymon protects all of his guys, then how come Julian Williams fights tough? How come Jermain Taylor fought Bernard [Hopkins] twice, Winky Wright, Kassim Ouma, Cory Spinks, Kelly Pavlik twice? How come Rico Ramos fights tough? It’s the guys that don’t want to fight – it’s not Al Haymon saying, ‘Oh, my God, please don’t fight that killer over there,’ because he’ll ask me, ‘Do you think Julian can beat that guy?’ and I’ll say, ‘Yeah,’ and he’ll say, ‘Well, if you think [Williams] can beat him, you know better than anybody else. I’ll put [Julian] in there with [a particular opponent] but if you don’t think you can beat him, we won’t put him in there with him.’ So he gives you the choice.

“So when you see a guy who’s missing a lot of opponents and always fighting a turkey, it’s not Al Haymon telling them to fight the turkey. It’s those guys that don’t want to fight.”

Personally I think Haymon held back fights in 2014 to try and keep his stable of fighters strong with wins for his new NBC deal in 2015.

And a copy of a Haymon contract:
http://ucnlive.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/AdvisoryAgreementreHaymonSportsLLC121114.pdf

This is what one boxing insider had to say about it:

“He is refining his agreements as he moves forward. The question that comes to mind is: How could Al possibly breach this contract? The only thing he is obligated to do is give the fighter his advice. He is not even required to get them a fight. And to the extent that he has promised to publicize their careers (which is impossible to quantify), the fighter must reimburse his expenses!!! Don King had absolutely nothing on this guy! At least Don used to promise them fights. If he breached and they had a good lawyer, his fighters could get out of their deals. There is no way out of this contract that I can see, other than to bring a Muhammad Ali Act violation suit based on the premise that he is actually doing the job of promoter while masquerading as an ‘adviser.’

If a fighter who already has a manager signs this, by the way, he will be giving up a fee to the manager plus 15% before paying for training expenses and paying a trainer. Don King would blush.”

Al haymons a promoter according to the first part.
