      He has fought majority of his recent fights with PBC. He's still on his own.
      Prograis is with Dibella who can deal with all promoters. So it all boils down
      to which network/platform want this fight badly.
      Prograis left dibella.

      Well Mikey did sue to leave TR so that is understandable.

      I don’t think it’s who wants it badly, it’s who can afford it and what they expect in return for putting it on.

          Dazn messed up boxing adding that 3rd outlet. Throw in Triller as a 4th outlet.

          fights aren’t gonna be made. Not sure why you guys don’t get that.

            Doesn't matter.

            Neither Garcia nor Prograis is under contract with DAZN or Hearn’s Matchroom Boxing. DAZN also has tightened its boxing budget, therefore it will no longer grossly overpay for fights, the way it did for Mikey Garcia-Jessie Vargas in February 2020.

              clearly no network thinks this fight is worth investing in given the purse demands for each fighter.

                Thriller is the only hope that this fight gets made. Since note have a promoter they don't have a network to air it on so it will be on ppv. Good luck with that.

                    See, bro, that's the problem. Mikey saw 7 mil the last time in a fight I wouldn't pay him more than a mil max, if I were a promoter. I'm thinking Mikey is now expecting the same or more than the last time. Nobody would touch that. Neither is it a must-see fight. It's an OK fight if it happens.

                      They would have to go with the highest bidder or not fight. The winner of this fight will be in consideration for other big fights.
