    Default With Haymon's Near Monopoly on 140-147, What Fights Do You Want Made?

    Porter, Thurman, Broner, Maidana (after he loses to Floyd), Guerrero, Garcia, Matthysse, Khan, Collazo. All the potential explosive match-ups with that group. Who should we see?

    Im really not feeling this monopoly game by Haymon.

    Everybody and their mamas are signing with him.. Even the mediocre fighters like Bj Flores.. Bj Flores just signed with him too.. smh

    I hope Haymon crash and burns.

    I have no love for Haymon, but this could actually be good for boxing. I mean it wasn't working the other way too well. Pressure is all on him. Make the fights or lose earning potential. $$ drives everything, especially for a vermin like Haymon.

    Why the hate for Hayman? This is a good stable. If he allows them to fight other dangerous fighters that would be even better.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I want what Haymon wants, he's the man right now.
    He promised Paulie a big fight if he took that fight with Judah and he delivered.
    Porter turned out to be too much for Paulie, but it was a big chance and I think Paulie was appreciative.

    When King owned the HW's, we moaned...

    When Arum owned the welter's and middle's, we moaned...

    Haymon now owns the welter's and a smattering of the other weights, we are now moaning....

    Someone has to be in front. Always. I wish I worked for Haymon. He seems a little more straight forward than King, Arum and Kushner is/was.

    When Don King monopolized, he gave us golden PPV events..

    That's the difference between King and these other guys.. king was all about making big events..

    King may have been bad for the fighters yet he was good for the fans..

    On a flipside, haymon is good for the fighters' pockets but he's bad for the fans..

    Who would u ride with as a boxing fan? Don King

    Well, as fans, we don't really care about the fighters purses or health- if Haymon has an eye on that, and I kinda figured, then he really is doing the right thing.

    I'm not going to get in the middle of whether or not those guys were better or worse than the other.... but King did give us memories and I do prefer his matchmaking over all of the other names, but as said- working for King would be a nightmare. You would have to hide your eyeballs for fear he would steal them out of your head.
