      Haney should have went for a unification.

      But Bill and Devin viewed this as a money fight. If it's not selling, then this fight is just regarded as one of Ryan Garcia's stay-busy fights. In other words, this fight is just similar to a Duarte fight.

        But did Haney ever say he didn't want the Prograis fight on PPV? That would be interesting if so.

        PPV is normally used in order to pay for the purses that the boxers are demanding because it doesn't fit within the budget. That probably means DAZN wasn't willing to completely cover Haney + Prograis guarantees, so PPV it had to be.

        DAZN was supposedly indecisive about paying Taylor/Catterall what they wanted. Hearn said that the match-up was shopped around and other ent!ties were willing to put it on PPV. DAZN bit the bullet, covered their purses and kept the fight off of PPV.

          I think I recall he commented he wasn't aware it would be a ppv. But thats all I recall as I don't pay attention to that type of stuff much. But that suggests he assumed it wasn't going to be.

          The thing is to me hes in the Devin business & DAZN is in the DAZN business & for DAZN to pay Devin what they needed to secure his services they needed to make it a PPV. So its less of a what did Devin want thing as it is what DAZN needed to do to make the fight. So in that way the fight doesn't happen & Devin doesn't have a belt now if its not a PPV.

              I don't think it's a coincidence his last three fights (Loma, Prograis, Garcia) have been PPV. I expect his career to take place mostly on PPV from now on.

                They wouldn't be putting him on ppv if they weren't making money off of doing so so I assume it makes sense for all parties.

                I just don't think he has as much say in it as a free agent vs the promoters/platforms is my point.
