Degale signs with Haymon

He's since deleted the tweet so may have shot the gun on announcing this. Wonder if it's a split from Matchroom or a joint venture.

James does seem very ambitious.......and that's a good thing...

There a lot of dream matches at 168 so it seems like a smart move to me..

Smart move to raise his stature in the U.S. Hope it's a joint venture just so that we can also see some good domestic match-ups. Not overly sure about the PBC shows though - about as exciting as steamed cabbage.

Joined Forces, would maybe indicate its a partnership deal... IMO..

We may see a lot less of DeGale as a result. Frampton has stated he'll only fight in the UK once a year.

I think Haymon is dealing with the American side of things while Matchroom still have 'access' to him for Uk shows.

Haymon must have thrown the $$ at him. Sewing up all the top talent with huge purses. Interesting he now had Khan, Frampton and DeGale in his camp. What this means for Hearn and DeGale I do not know.

Think he's deleted the tweet now.....has he dumped Matchroom?
