I'm no Haymon fan either, but that's what promoters and managers do.
There have been many boxers that had the early part of their career shaped by protective promoters.
I agree but it's pretty sad the way he's handled Wilder's career. Same goes for Gary Russell Jr. I was a big fan of both coming out of the Beijing Olympics but Haymon has completely killed that excitement.
You just can't develop a fighter by continuously putting him in the ring with guys who have no chance. Look at Anthony Joshua in the UK...that's the proper way to develop a fighter. Haymon is a genius when it comes to business but he sucks when it comes to boxing (match-making, fighter development, etc).
