Yes it is very good news. Coming on across the street to the PBC

Call Bob and quit fucking around kid.

Bob Arum (and others) won’t allow the big fights unless they can exert some measure of control over the fighters and rival promoters. Look what Devin Haney had to do to get a shot at undisputed.

This is a monopolistic practice and should be illegal.

Prograis not gonna find the money he wants LOL.. he was grossly overpaid by Marv Nation, he should be happy they saved him.

Only way he gets paid is if Oscar & Ryan decide to bless him

I doubt his best friend Jermall can do the same becoming free agent.

[Cool story]

Regis Prograis is taking his career into his own hands.

hmm....but is this not the same guy, that said Terence 'Bud' Crawford was making a mistake by trying to go without a promoter to make the Errol 'the tooth' Spence fight?

Is this not the same guy who's promoter in the Jose Zepeda fight, MarvNation, gave him a 'rubber check'?

Is this not the guy whose past promoters have pretty much failed in getting him the 'big fights' just like, Top Rank failed to do for Terence Crawford?

hmm...but now Regis who is now "taking his career into his own hands", should change his ring name from 'Rougarou', to ' Regis 'The Hypocrite' Prograis.

Being a fighter, a boxing fan, or a bricklayer some times don't matter because fate is fickle.

Some lead, some follow, and some just sit on the fence and lean which ever way the wind blows.

Good, one step closer to Jose Ramirez getting his ass beat on live tv

"Free Agent" isn't really a fair description. Canelo finishing his contract would make him a free agent. Aaron Rodgers is a free agent.

Regis can't find a promoter. He's like a rapper with no record deal.
