Lou DiBella "Al Haymon Fired Me From PBC For Trying To Get Wilder The AJ Fight"

[juggernaut666]

Haymon is a mastermind, always has been.

However in this case, anybody who can convince a fighter to fire a guy who lined him up a $120 million opportunity for him is incredibly smart, or the fighter is incredibly ******.

Wilder, Ruiz, Martin , Ortiz and Kownacki share one thing in common, each aren't the brightest and these are basically his heavyweights. When you have ****** people to control and have a great degree of manipulation skills you don't really have to be smart to control a Deontay wilder the only man who will ever turn down 120 million guaranteed money at the time having like right now no PPV generating abilities on his own to match something like that .

I'm far from a Haymon and PBC fan but Dibella is full of shhh. He was getting fkd by the WBC and turned around to fk his fighters at the time. Then ran over to Haymon to spread his cheeks and get fkd some more. GTFOH..this dude does whatever puts the most money in his pockets and that's likely what got him fired. Making side deals for himself.

[DaNeutral.]

cmon guys...really?

so basically dibella was going to try to move wilder to another network without haymon...i mean...cmon...

this means absolutely nothing about wilder, haymon or finkel NOT wanting the fight...they want it...but they want their piece of it too...and they want american ppv involved....its been only getting bigger

nobody "wets" themselves over the thought of facing AJ....

LOL your days of saying wilder and Winkle and haymon wanting that fight are long gone my good friend. Long gone.

[QueensburyRules]

He was Wilders promoter.. The job of a promoter is to get thier fighter the fight they want for most the money. He delivered both and got fired for it.

I thought Wilder, Finkle and Al wanted the AJ fight?? Firing the guy that got you a offer for the fight you so call want says otherwise.

- -U 3 Stooges may want the fight later...or probably not, so don't hold U breath.

Look, nobody on this forum is qualified to question the man who helped make Mayweather the wealthiest fighter this sport has EVER SEEN. His Track Record is proven BUT with that being said the pressure is on Wilder to Knockout Fury and see what happens after that

If Wilder Knockouts Out Fury in impressive Fashion then AJ vs Wilder becomes even BIGGER which means more money which means Haymon may have SAVED Wilder from a Awful Deal in which he would've been Stuck with a Guarantee of $20 Million while AJ and Eddie would've cleaned up and laughed all the way to the bank with Hundreds Of Millions $$$. However, now with him not being locked in with DAZN and with Saudi Arabia now a factor and is showing interest and is willing to put up big money. It is a good chance that Wilder will indeed walk away from way more money than he would've taking that DAZN Deal

So lets wait and see how things play out! Now if he lose to Fury next month and then the rematch then yeah you can call ****** for turning down that deal

[paulf]

Sounds like he was acting above his pay grade more than anything else to me.

Yeah precisely... Lou was promoter in name only. Haymon leveraged his massive stable of fighters to get PBC the Fox deal; Wilder going to DAZN directly conflicts with PBCs interests. Hell, DAZN’s existence directly conflicts with Haymons defacto plan of making PBC the major league of American boxing.

Not surprised that Lou advocating for Wilder to go to DAZN was a bridge too far.

Major league? Industry doesn’t care for brands but only what the fighters do. and generations come and go. Whom are PBC’s commodities? Wilder? Pacquiao? that’s enough to sustain?

I hope Haymon does something with Zufa Boxing. This will determine the sideshows... Meaning, crossover fights you didn’t expect and boxers taking fights they shouldn’t take. Which means Haymon never wants the best to fight the best as priority but to only sustain his profits when it benefits him.

[Robbie Barrett]

Haymon's job as a manager is to do what's best for his fighter not himself. He has a conflict of interest. Fan's of the sport or Wilder would not be defending this bull****.

[glenn mcrory]

Wait hold on...
Youre telling us after all this, what we learned is...

That Al Haymon protects his fighters?

I think everyone already knew that.

[Earl-Hickey]

Yeah reading through this thread... Same **** different year
