    Yes, I agree. However there's rumors that the money was being put up by Ginger and that Ginger is the one putting up the money to buy Teo out of his contract with Arum.
    Canelo ???

      I don't think fans care too much about which platform fighters are fighting in. Fights are fights no matter where they happen. If Haney is happy to sign with BLK Prime I don't see any issue.

          As opposed to disillusionment: "a feeling of disappointment resulting from the discovery that something is not as good as one believed it to be.​"

          The latter could certainly apply to how fans of Devin Haney might feel after he got exposed by "left hook only" Ryan Garcia.

          You know, to be entirely pedantic about it, since I know you can handle a little trolling...

            I hear you and I am of the same opinion. All I am saying is that Turki is the only promoter who does not have to make a profit on an event and can therefore overpay a fighter like Haney. Can he pay enough? I don't know. What I do know is that no other promoter will pay Haney a high guarantee that he demands because he thinks (or his dad thinks) he is a superstar.
            I'd rather he overpay somebody else who I would actually want to watch.

              Yes, that's the rumor... Not saying it's true, but he is working with Reynoso now, so it's a possibility....

                    Without condoning all that, I’d like to know what drug makes your opponent walk onto shots like that. It seemed like he was used to smaller guys that he could get away with bullying. He f’d around and found out.
