Apr 4, 2016 at 11:29 comment added Karol Szumiło At the moment I can't think of a significantly different argument. What would you count as an argument avoiding homotopy colimits? For example, do you consider Quillen's proof of Theorem A independent of homotopy colimits? It uses diagonals of bisimplicial sets which are homotopy colimits and Bousfield--Kan construction reduces general homotopy colimits to this special case. All these things are intimately related to each other so it may not be possible to separate them completely.
Apr 1, 2016 at 11:46 comment added Anton Mellit Thank you very much for the reference, in fact Remarque 1.1.4 in Cisinski's paper is precisely my point. His proof however relies on the homotopy colimits of Bousfield-Kan. I want to do the opposite: first to prove relative theorem A independently from homotopy colimits, then use it to construct homotopy colimits. Do you know of an independent proof?
