Haymon, does he have the right idea?

[Master]

I think he screwed Quillin over for personal reasons and not in kid chocolates interest.

Agreed. But if Quillin was dumb enough to fall for it, then who are we to judge? Some folks are just dumb. Quillin, a good fighter, but just dumb as a box of rocks.

Most fighters are dumb until it is too late in their career.

Froch would tell Hearn to go to hell than give up a belt he has worked so hard to win and defend.

Haymon should be looking after him.

No doubt. Like winning a belt meant nothing. If he didn't win that belt then hardly anyone would be talking about him or to him about fights. What makes him think that Jacobs wants to fight him without a belt?

smt.. Quillin made the worse decision of his career. Worst one.

He is out for his own interests like any promoter, I'm sure he is making smart moves. Quillin would have had little to no choice in that matter, it was Haymon throwing a wrench in the whole thing.
You'd have to look at the ratings for some of these cards to get your answer I guess, but I suspect they have done alright. Haymons fighters are getting paid well for one thing, and for borderline mismatches at that. It's a minority of viewers who actually realize the cards suck, I think.
