Hatton muscling in on Hayemaker

[chinny]

Isn't Hayemaker Golden Boy's UK partner? Having said that I'm sure Hennesey was claiming the same a few years ago when Witter fought in the US.

And where does Calzaghe fit in?

Reminds me of the old Kia-Ora ad "I'll be your dog"

I am sure Hatton will have contract with sky if it takes off.

What a disgusting website that is to be directed to. Pop ups, ads everywhere, flashing lights.......

But interesting article, I didn't know Ricky had started his own promotional company. I hope Paulie knocks him out and puts an end to this immediately.

[Poncey]

I thought this was part of their deal signed earlier this year. Oh well.

[Chambers2]

Who's Dicky got signed to his promo company? Matthew Hatton and err..

[twenty six]

The links between Hayemaker and Golden Boy are very strong.
If they do a deal with Punch Promotions as well then terrific - great for boxing, so bring it on.
The days of exclusivity are well and truly over - and rightly so.
I don't think Ricky, David, or Joe will be losing any sleep.
However that might not apply to all Promotors.

Oi, Khaosai Galaxy, have you seen this?

GB have links all over the place - they are getting 'into bed' with Affliction the clothes wear company, and recent MMA promoter, to do some joint boxing & MMA cards, apparently.

[hitman_hatton1]

hatton promotions will be a force.

already done 57,000 in the stadium.

beat that hayemaker.

Shitman,
Haye will be around far longer than Ricky as a fighter.
In fact, it could all be over for Ricky by the end of the year.
Mind you - he can always sign Matthew as a headliner.
How many attended Punch Promotions first show ?
How many attended Hayemaker's first show ?

it was obvious i was piss taking.

but hayemaker are also heavily reliant on haye coming thru at heavyweight.

if he flunks then who else?

ryan rhodes - decent british level fighter but that's about it.
george groves - make that fight for degale's pro debut. easy.

and haye has said he wants out by 30.

which is only 2 yrs away.

[twenty six]

How many fights do you think Hatton has left in the tank ?
How many fights do you think Haye has left in the tank ?
Promotional Companies do not stand still.
Both will make good signings in the coming months I'm sure of it.
I'm still not sure if Haye will make it to the top but I hope he does.
If / when he does, 57,000 will be a doddle.

I know I'm not Hattons biggest fan but even I'd say that is a bit harsh, is he not allowed to promote himself?

I very much doubt that. Hatton is a box office phenomenon. Not even Bruno got those figures for legit world heavyweight title shots, and he was a MUCH bigger name than Haye is now.

Haye also has Martin Lindsay, Derry Matthews, John Watson, Curtis Woodhouse, Michael McGuire, Joe McNally, Josh Wale and possibly Tony Dodson(he was on the last card but I'm not sure if he's part of the stable). Combine this with the likes of Haye himself, Ryan Rhodes and George Groves(as you have all mentioned) and it may not be earth shattering stuff but it's a nice little stable.

From Hatton's first card I don't know what fighters are actually contracted to him(if any).
Danny Butler beat Matthew Hough
Brock Cato beat Steve Cooper
Pete Leworthy beat Sid Razak
Philip Dowse and Davey Jones drew

At best I suppose it's the guy on the left side of the column in Hatton's stable plus himself and Matthew Hatton.
But Matthew was on a Frank Maloney card recently, maybe that was a one off or maybe Matthew is with Maloney now.

Anyway the point being is at the moment Hatton's career as a promoter seems like just a little play thing on the side where as Haye's has a tv contract, and some decent fighters and is much more serious. Then again I reckon Haye has little actual imput into it at the moment.

[Max Molyneux]

De La Hoya Is like the Illuminati of boxing, he secretly rules the boxing world.

Bigears,
Dodson is contracted to Hayemaker.
You've missed off Craig Watson and David Barnes.
I'm sure there will be more additions.

[Pugilist-specialist]

has Barnes signed as he's on the schedules to box Colin Lynes on 5th December on a Hearn show ?

[Max Molyneux]

Suprised the promoters are allowing Haye and Booth to take their fighters so easily!

[leforge]

Barnes v Lynes is on a matchroom show, he can still be Haye fighter but they have rights to that fight. I surprised Watson left Maloney.

Lynes is 100% Matchroom - Barnes ? not sure.

[twenty six]

Barnes is Hayemaker.
The purse bids were sorted for this fight before he signed.

yeah good post tbh.

haye's promotional firm has already signed some decent names.

they gotta get rid of the black canvas though.

flaming 'orrible.

[hitman_hatton1]

would even klitschko at wembley stadium get that.

it would get a good crowd for sure.

but 57,000 is exceptional.

[Pugilist-specialist]

Let's hope that Barnes keeps his date with Lynes , unlike Dodson who withdrew twice from English title fights only to have 2 meaningless fights with Hayemaker
