You're acting like other promoters don't do the same. Plant would only fight Canelo if it was on Showtime with PBC. Charlo would only fight Munguia if it was on Showtime only, no DAZN.

At the end of the day...the fighters sign on. They know what they are entering into and accept it for the dollar signs. Haney showed it by signing. He wanted the fight and he took what it took. He also showed that if a fighter wants a fight...they can get it if they are willing to sacrifice. And by sacrifice I mean let go of the A Side talk....take a little less to get a little more etc etc. Most times it's the fighters talking about how when it makes sense it will make sense. It will never make sense to a promoter if a fighter is asking top dollar every time they step out regardless of opposition.
That's too much power in the hands of one promoter, and it's being wielded unethically to boot.

Arum straight up told Haney that he signed with the wrong promoter, and froze him out until he could own a piece of him.

Say what you like....in 2022 no man is legally a slave. Haney made a choice. My boss sells a product. If you want access to that product you sign an agreement to provide something for that product...in our case...cash. My boss tells me to make that product work. If I don't...I don't get paid...it's in my work contract. I know what I have to do...I signed on. I didn't have to...I could have worked somewhere else. If you know business...you know that many high paid executives sign time contracts and part of that contract stipulates that if they leave early...that they aren't allowed to take employment anywhere else until their original time contract expires.

Why should Arum be allowed to control the sport to that degree? To the point that fights don't get made unless he can have both boxers in-house?

I don't disagree but Eddie Hearn doesn't help himself rubbing all the American's promoters the wrong way either.
I do agree though many fights could have been made if he didnt behave like a 5 yr old taunting his rivals.
Hearn at least doesn’t outright refuse working with anyone.
Also looking at how Arum and Warren did a complete number on Hearn getting him to spend 2 months flying around world to negotiate AJ / Fury - then pull out last minute - you would expect Hearn to be equally bitter as he could have severed major relationships with partners but he gets on with it.
You see how he manages to work well with smaller promoters for example without hamstringing them and they come back to work on undercards. Compare how other US promoters lock out Dibella and create conditions where fighters literally have few options. Of course i wont pretend Hearn hasnt upset Dibella and others too! :-)
