    They did 1.3 mil with the help of golden boy. Love how you leave out facts to make your own narrative. You're a clown

      I'm sure Regis doesn't care about fighting bums and getting paid big bags of money doing it

        This is so bizarre since all of the big fights are with Top Rank.

          Unless DAZN is gonna feed Ryan Garcia to him (easy fight, good money), you gotta wonder wtf Prograis signed with them for.

            Maybe he's been promised something that we don't know about, because that's the only way that he would've turned down more money to sing with Arum.
            Prograis already said that he didn't believe that Arum would get him the big fight's that he's looking for, you don't say that unless you know something.
            Regis Prograis is in a better position to know what's going on in the boxing world, than we are because he's actually living it, while we are merely spectator's.
            I see your point, but the man is 34 years old. Are you telling me that after signing him, Bob would block him from fighting all of Lopez, Taylor, Ramirez and Barbosa Jr.? I find it hard to believe that Bob would block every one of those fights. What would he gain from doing that when any belts involved would remain in-house.

              What makes you think Arum offered Prograis more money?

                  Regis has said so himself on Mannix' latest podcast episode.

                    how many of those buys were on DAZN and how many were American PPV on showtime? Pretty safe bet that 80% of sales were American PPVs. DAZN isn’t going to be in business much longer. They are losing hundreds of millions per year right now. Hearn is one of the dumbest promoters I’ve seen in my life. Look what he did to matchroom america lol. His 2 top fighters were haney and andrade. They couldn’t get a decent fight. Haney finally went to TR now he’s the top dog Andrade and showtime and he will have a big fight soon. Crazy that Regis signed with these guys. It’s a clear duck of top comp and he better hope they keep princess RY away from him cause Ryan will light him up like a Christmas tree he’s not tank lol

                      What does dazn buys have to do with this? It's irrelevant the numbers are high because of Ryan. That's literally a fact and My main point
