Because Matchroom was built by fighters who have been in good domestic scraps over the years and entertained the fans, whilst being limited to that sort of level, just as much as fighters who have made it to the top.

There's load of fighters who aren't like world level that sell tickets look at Warrington, doesn't even have a punch yet packs leeds out

Because they can’t spread themselves too thin, they already have a vast number of fighters under their promotion.
