    Nothing wrong with it, except his overprotected fighters are not fighting each other. That's the disgusting thing about it. Seems clear that he's creating something like "me and my fighters" vs TBAs.

      Do you guys even know how much Networks like HBO, CBS/Showtime and Disney/ESPN are worth?

      They will NEVER EVER go broke spending what would be considered "A LITTLE MONEY" to them, on Boxing

      Haymon is a great business man, I am sure finding a Network will not be a problem AT ALL if he is looking for just ANOTHER ONE to showcase some of his other fighters.

        You never seen a infomercial show before.

        You can buy time but to buy primetime slots idk how much that costs but could he turn a profit doing it even with sponsorships.

            Promoters have tried it in the past, they found it incredibly hard to find sponsors to equal out the cost, which is why they don't do it, and stick with a PPV - subscription model.

            The only fighter IMO could do it would is Wilder.

            There will always be an American audience for a guy his size and power who is from America.

                The reason there worth so much is because they don't spend money of crap that can't sell advertising space. people aren't going to risk there jobs to the good of boxing.

                ESPN is really the only network that could make a push in boxing, they were happy with there ratings for Arreola vs Stiverne and want to do more big fights. My guess is they really only want the heavyweights.

                But trying to convince the average sports fan to tune in for guys like Austin Trout, Danny Jacobs, just isn't going to happen.

                  I am surprised Haymon doesn't push for fights on CBSSports Network, that network could use some live boxing on its airwaves.

                    Steve Kim always reveling in the notion that Haymon has not developed a star from his stable. Harps on it every week on his podcast; seems to lean towards TR fighters

                      That doesn't even count, that counts towards commercial time. That crap that's shown in the wee hours of the night?

                      Buying Primetime slots? On what channel? CBS? NBC? ABC? ESPN? TNT? Yeah right. That's only a dream! You're not doing that on ANY major network.
