Comments Thread For: Prograis Says His Purse Check From Saturday Night Bounced Due To Insufficient Funds

Boxing is so unregulated. I can only speak for the UK system, but essentially all you need to become a promoter/manager etc is to pay 5-10k in fees. There’s no screening or vetting process. If you have the money they give you a licence.

It doesn't help that the UK's longest standing current boxing promoter, Frank Warren, has avoided creditors (including boxers) by liquidating companies. He just starts a new company, carries on as before, and some people think he's a hero.

Bro looks like the Fyre Festival of boxing promoter wannabes

I hope they sort out his payment.

I guess those with bigger promoters get more of a guarantee on payment.

Something like this makes me wonder if those whom Crawford mentioned, that would pay $50m for him and Spence to share, really had that money.

Man this is some bs! Hopefully Prograis has his hands on the escrowed winners money!
Wonder if Zepeda’s bounced too?

[Goatintheboat]

Hope Crawford knows about this

[jackblack008]

Prograis should team up with Hearns, fight in UK. (already fan base because of Taylor fight)

[Regge]

Isn't Shaefer his promoter though?

[just the facts]

Seriously effed up. I hope Zepeda got paid.

[LarryX....]

damn shame..

That's why Spence told that clown Crawford not all money is good money.
