That's some move to kick off your career in the fight game.
It's the money. All about the money Jay Z has and the money he can put together with his connections. Haymon is shitting bricks, as a once dumb fuck from Marcy projects that used to deal dope is probably set to top him as a promoter/manager with his Harvard pedigree and years of experience.

I hate it when shit like that happens. I actually dislike the glorification of dumb fucks, because you know behind that façade isn't really "hard work" all the time- but skulduggery, gangsterism, sexual impropriety and theft.

Wait? Was I talking about Haymon or Jay Z here?!?!
Man! Wake up! Do you really believe these two guys had an easy ride to the top? You don't think they both took some real chances, that most of us wouldn't be willing to take.
I'm not saying they should be admired or liked, but you have to give them credit for being at the top.
Ambition, brains, balls to spare, and some luck. All of us don't have that combo.
