    Put the purses in escrow the week before (if the money isn't in escrow it's up to the fighters if they want to wait) and it automatically gets released once the fight has happened, if promoters can't get the money by then they shouldn't go beyond their means (could even argue a % of the agreed purse should go into escrow once the fight has been made, and if the promoter can't pay the rest then it's given to the fighters, sort of a non refundable deposit)

    But as the board have repeatedly shown they don't give a shyte about stuff like this

    The judgement made it clear Burns had no grounds to terminate his contract. So Ricky Burns has been badly advised.

    In fairness to them you can't really expect them to spend 3 years of their career in the Scottish lower leagues if good premier league clubs are interested in you...

    But back to burns, needs to get rid of whoever advised him on this

    In fairness to rangers they could have signed their contracts over on the understanding that IF a club was to come in for them they could have left for a fee. One or 2 did. Back to Ricky. FVV is a bag of sh*t and Alec Morrison has let him down too hes been there all the way Ricky deserved better from him
