    In the Figueroa/Navarrete thread, I said that TR/PBC are fighting to see who can outlast the other. All the big promotional outfits have created their own ecosystems so they don't have to work with each other. They all take turns shxtting on each other for the bad behavior that they all engage in. When Hearn wanted to use DAZN's budget to match-ups between PBC/TR fighters and his own stable, Hearn got laughed at because he was perceived as desperate and inept. When the promoters act so cynical towards each other, it's no wonder why us fans become cynical and pessimistic as well.

    It's a good thing that PBC has allowed some fighters to move around, but sometimes it feels like they do it out of necessity. Porter was only interested in facing Crawford, or he was gonna retire(?). Fulton had to demand to be allowed to face Inoue. The Frank Martin/Stevenson situation is how things usually play out: cynical bad faith behavior that leads to NO FIGHT. At some point. promoters need to realize that they are gradually damaging the integrity of the sport by not working together.
    I don't care "why," I just know they do it a lot more than people give them credit for! Fulton said Haymon blessed him, WITHOUT DEMANDS!

      There should be no demands because he's only an "advisor".
