Have a look at the extensive PBC boxing schedule.

What the hell is going on? If you want to set up a UFC-like organisation you've got to have a UFC-like schedule with lots of competitive fights on every bill. UFC have an event almost every weekend and Haymon has one half arsed show in a casino ballroom -- the Buffalo Thunder casino for fuck's sake -- and that's it.
I know the firm that's funding him are having problems recently. The hedge fund world is very opaque at the best of times but they've definitely lost a few quid recently and they may suddenly see the 1% of funds they've backed Haymon with, or what's left of it, as having better uses elsewhere. But from a boxing point of view it's not looking like a success now, is it?
