Everyone remember when Haymon and his 500 million dollar war chest was going to transform boxing? Then he ran into the ali act and it all went to shambles. Turns out to get promoters to work together and "fix" boxing you need billions and not delusions that you're going to create the boxing equivalent of the UFC. We're starting to see the benefits of the Saudis putting on big fights. They're working with both ESPN and DAZN to distribute the PPVs keeping the broadcasters happy and since they're using their money to pay the fighters the budgets at ESPN/DAZN aren't being hit. Matchroom had the money to overpay to get Boots mandatory and put it on DAZN. We'll see how long this lasts.
Andy Ruiz was the lovable fat guy but he like Miller also had legal stuff resolved recently. The accusations were heinous even for boxing standards and the judges order backs up the claims. I'm hoping both he and Miller lose somehow.
I heard that super card may take place at LAFC Stadium. Great venue. I went to a GBP/Zurdo card there a few years ago. Definitely plan on getting tickets, hopefully. Bud/Madrimov starting to feel like the "Walk Out Bout" lol.
