    Garcia is playing the game. He knows if he beats Spence Hearn will offer him mega money.

    Hearns sound like Don King one of the greatest promoters ever but offer mega money to fighters that he didn't even have. It's all a game.

    They're easily outdoing PBC right now.

    Lets hope so. PBC has been a bad joke

    Only have themselves to blame... they have a PPV model and build zero PPV stars since Mayweather. The bit I dont get was PBC put it out there that their FOX deal was the biggest deal out there. Yet where is that FOX money now the big numbers are being put out there? If its that big why not just move Wilder to FOX. Seems to me a lot of fighters and journalists have towed the PBC line as they had a monopoly but the whole business was built on sand if you are only having your fighters fight once a year.

    Sometimes I wonder what Al Haymon has on these fighters. They get offered great money to leave but refuse because they trust Haymon with their careers.

    Charlo bros prime example.

    Funny that it wasn't long ago we were told there was $50 million sitting there ready to be paid to AJ no problem yet now Wilder is sitting down with DAZN.

    How exactly has that happened when PBC and Co were supposed to be flush ready to pay whatever it took?

    What does he have on them? Probably a signature.
    Quite obvious they are under contract and can't sign with other promoters and media outlets, or have to pay a hefty buyout price if there's an option to leave anyway.

    No, I completely agree with this... Al Haymon isn’t supposed to be a promoter he is dubbed as a “Advisor” so shouldn’t he be guiding his fighters to the best possible platforms/ fights/ pay days for there career yet it most cases he doesn’t in fact it seems they go stagnant and have long periods between fights which are generally not the demand fights anyway.

    It will be interesting to see how it plays out Could hayman leverage the wilder negotiation to get some dates with DAZN?? Look at goldenboy and GGG promotions maybe DAZN let them in.

    That would be interesting for Matchroom.

    Are PBC not locked into Fox/Showtime?

    Pass not sure - but at one point he was only working with showtime and managed to get onto fox.
