    If CBS never went back to it the ratings must have bombed.

      The latter. That's why he signed Stevenson. If HBO wants to make their dream fight they have to work with him.
      Shotime are pretty reliant on Haymon fighters at this point (not so HBO), without his fighters they would just have Canelo and virtually no one else.

      It could be argued Haymon is reliant on Shotime too, but he could go back to HBO at any time leaving Sho high and dry.

        ShowTime doesn't have the budget to showcase all of his fighters at the prices he demands. And with their poor ratings their boxing budget won't be expanding anytime soon.

        I anticipate stacked $100 PPVs with stacked undercards in the near future.

          He can't go back because they won't buy any of his cards like the august 9th one coming up. He is holding Showtime hostage by dangling future fights to them in order to put garbage fights on the air.

              This is a bad thing? Another respectable network Showing Boxing would be great for the Sport and the Fighters.

                    They televise shows on basic cable FNF-FS1 the problem is they have a tiny budget not near enough to pay the demands top fighters require.
                    You have no clue how lucrative advertising money is. Fox doesn't pay the UFC 100 million a year with a small budget.

                    Oh and did I mention golden boy also has a deal with FS1 also.

                      That budget is dog ****, along with espn's. A lot of those events lose $.

                      And that fox 100 million dollar contract is nonsense, that would break down to spending millions per event, there def not giving UFC millions per event, and there ratings have been abysmal.

                      Haymon trying to go on his own buying network time would be costly, I'd imagine it would mainly for record building fights, I don't think he'd be wiling to spend his own $ on his more expensive fighters.
