I read he's getting four or five premium dates on NBC and a lot of dates on NBC cable and he's apparently going to start some kind of PPV or subscription channel on top of that. Four or five big cheques isn't going to keep all those fighters he has signed happy and if his pay channel doesn't work and HBO and Showtime start publicly offering his fighters bigger cheques than he can offer it's going to get interesting.
And how does Haymon work as a promoter and a manager? Get the Watson twins to manage the fighters? Although in some cases the fighters have managers (even co-managers) and Haymon as advisor. Ten percent for the trainer, fifteen for Haymon and up to twenty five for the manager(s). That's a lot for a fighter to pay out and I'm sure those fuckers all get paid off the top, then you've got the taxman taking half of what's left. Haymon better come through with the revenues or he's going to have lots of unhappy fighters.
