What does a post-Bob Arum boxing world look like?

[hfahrenheit]

Does anybody know what's happening with PBC? Thomas Hauser wrote a couple of great articles about Al Haymon a while ago but since then I haven't seen anything really good. I know the fund that put the money up for PBC are being sued by their investors for basically throwing hundreds of millions of dollars away but there's no news on whether that's going to affect Haymon and no news on how he's doing at the minute. He's got a lot of fighters and I'm sure a lot of them are not getting the number of fights he promised them. Something has to happen there eventually.

To me, Haymon is greedy enough, has connections, but doesn't have what it takes on the business side, (his current lawsuit being the proof).

What is the current one?

Nobody brings along talent as well as Top Rank.

Totally agree with this.

I think Top Rank has good foundations in place so that when Arum does pass the company will continue to run just fine.

At the moment they are trying new things with streaming and ESPN, all promoters need to be agile and able to adapt to the current markets.
