Comments Thread For: Andy Cruz Files Lawsuit Against New Champions Promotions, Cites Breach Of Contract, Violation Of Ali Act

[slimPickings]

Why would one have a promoter and a co- promoter? That seems like too many hands in the pot.

...that sounds like professional boxing!!!

Who the fook is "New Champions Promotion"?

Is this one of those sketchy deals where some folks helped Andy get outta Cuba IF he signed to their or their peoples promption who don't actually promote & were just gonna get 33% of his money when they aligned him with a legit promoter, in this case Eddie?

This looks like some actual investigative boxing journalism. Some good responses from you also.

Read the article maybe.

Eduardo and matchroom better clean this up or everybody is going to lose plus the fighter may get detained or deported

Rodriguez acted as both a manager and promoter—a violation of the Ali Act, though sadly commonplace for people in that same position to exploit loopholes to double dip into a fighter’s purse.

Maybe NCP should be pretending they're just "advisors" like Haymon.

Sounds like they did a co-promotional deal with Matchroom, which would have been fine. Happens all the time. Problem for them is that a "promoter" is not permitted to take percentages of a fighters purse, only a manager is allowed to do that. And if the allegation that they were not a licensed manager is correct, then this will be a slam dunk for Cruz. It also creates a problem for Matchroom because if these NCP clowns are not licensed promoters either, then the CA commission could potentially kill the Matchroom contract as well, and then Matchroom would have to do a new deal with Cruz.......


The funny part of the story was where it said that acting as a promoter and manager at the same time is a violation of the Ali Act. Well that hasn't stopped Haymon from doing that exact thing for the last 8 or 9 years. But nobody cares lol

Exactly that!

Damn you did well in the first paragraph but just had to go off the deep end in the second one. It's funny how all you key lawyers are privy to more info than a United States District Court. Remember Bob and Oscar sued Al for violation of the Ali Act and not only did the case get thrown out of court it got laughed out of court as well. But whatever suits your narrative have at it loser. Hahahaha

[DClefthook]

Didn't Arum take a cut from Lopez when he lost to kambosos on dazn?

And for the second paragraph didn't Kathy duva and Arum sue haymon for violating the Ali act yet all Kathy did was exposed his slave contracts and Arum forced him to work with him?

Ahhh finally this clown pops his head up again. Kathy Duva sued and yet where is Kathy now. Promoting some eastern euro fight in the multi purpose room of something school in Jersey. If Al has slave contracts then why is he the only one that is never taken to court by his fighters. Oscar got sued by multiple fighters including the current one by King Ry. Arum has been sued about 100xs over his career. Eddie and MR have been involved in multiple lawsuits by their fighters. And yet you all are crickets about that but always want to come back to a lawsuit against Haymon that was tossed out of court. Typical!

Or even worse, he'll sign with PBC, a real company that doesn't screw over their fighters with shady backroom deals
