    Can't work out if that's a dig or not

    I have seen Pro on a few media releases recently but have no idea what they actually are in the world of boxing

    I thought Wasserman linked up with Sky and Boxxer ?

    Sounds too much like Bellew.

    For that reason, I'm out.

    Probellum are a new promotional company led by Richard Schaefer. Launched last week and plan to move into markets that have potential but not controlled such as Germany and Africa.

    they are majority owned by A guy with close links to MTK but hidden from view. It was pointed out last week that the same guy also co owns Hennessey sports and seems to be MTK making their move into fully promoting boxer without a clear tie to Kinahan.

    They will be bigger than DAZN with more than 100 shows each year from all around the world.

    And I wonder how many of them will actually be worth watching.

    I can't see them doing much in Germany . Because there's a lack of boxing talent in Germany at the moment. It's not like 10 years ago when there was Sturm, Huck, Abraham, Steiglitz, Braehmer, and the Klitschkos basing thenselves there. If they want world title holders there they'll have to sign Russians, Ukrainians, Kazakhs etc.

    It’s for the Italian market. It’s just an extra in the UK.
    In Italy it’s cheap content and watched regularly by decent numbers as DAZN have a good subscriber base there.
