So what you are saying is InterBox (Bute's promoter) asked ESPN for too much money to broadcast the fight? Because Bute-Joppy is happening without ESPN. The fight will be on TV in Canada and it will be watch by millions of fans. Not mentioning the +15000 fans in attendance.
It wasn't infected. It was paralyzed. Can be caused by a number of things. Like regular use of laxatives over a long period of time for example.
Yeah, a ridiculous argument. InterBox might even have payed them $30k or whatever to cover the fight. Exposure in the USA is crucial for Bute's career.
