Well i heard Ward bled them dry taking millions off them for fights that couldnt generate half of what they had to pay him.
Serves them right! They got SOB Ward the two fake wins by corrupt judges, and a very corrupt referee who landed three low blows to Kovalev's testicles, Weeks called it a knockout! The video does not lie. Good bye to those criminals, boxing does not need more corrupt, there is enough without them! HBO lost money on the two fights, Kovalev lost money, SOB got it all................dirtiest fighter I have ever seen!
I don't know they can afford to put on cards after paying Ward $6 million+ for the Kovalev rematch, that was a dud at the gate and on ppv. Ward was great in beating Kov, but he was much more brilliant in destroying Roc Nation. They're not a grassroots promotional outfit, so I don't see them putting on a lot of smaller shows. Unless an established star falls on their lap they're done.
Yes, true, but it was Weeks who called the testicle blows legal, so he might well have been the one who landed them! Without a corrupt referee SOB would not have won.............SOB needs corruption on his side to win a fight with someone like Kovalev. Rematch in Moscow next!
I didn't know they had that many prospects. Maybe they are putting in the work for a longer term rebuild.
At least boxingwise.. Theyre out of the Big fights unless they get someone to sign with them ASAP.. And still it wont be that easy cause they cant survive of off just one name.. I think theyre defintely out of the spotlight i boxing for good.
Should they really mourn losing the likes of Cotto, Ward and Rigo on who they were probably losing huge amounts of money? I think they're thanking their gods (or whatever they worship) on their knees that they didn't get Broner for $40m too But rebuilding and actually starting to earn money will take a while I think.
