    Comments Thread For: Old-guard promoters hold a trump card against Zuffa: co-promotion

    The best response to the gutting of the Ali Act is for legacy promoters to commit to beating back the enriched new challenger Zuffa by ? gasp! ? working together.

    Doesnt surprise me this crooked bill will be signed by this corrupt administration.

    Hopefully all the promoters on DAZN continue to work together and make the best fights because if they do, then fighters will see that they are the best option vs the crooked Dana White endeavor

        Copromotion!? Like for Ortiz Boots?
        Fair rankings!? 4 different belts with 4 sets of different rankings that rarely play together the wbc giving Ryan & now Benn a belt shot on an L & no resume.

        He must really l9ve the smell of his own shiiiiiit.

          I’m more than happy to see PBC, golden boy, matchroom, and Queensbury working together. Shame it took zuffa entering the scene for this to happen

            Fighters will go for the best deal and you can't really blame them. I don't think anyone is choosing Zuffa for the prestige.

            Promoters arguing that the Zuffa deals are bad for fighters shouldn't have anything to worry about. And if the fighters didn't understand that before then the current LIV golf debacle should hammer that home with perfect timing.

            But maybe the current promoters and orgs aren't quite as great for the fighters as they like to claim.

            Similar to the PGA, this might push them to do better.

                Zuffa has begun landing champions and elite contenders including cruiserweight Jai Opetaia, junior welterweight Richardson Hitchins, super middleweight Edgar Berlanga and welterweight Conor Benn
                1 who is elite but not really because he went to Zuffa. That's Opetaia.
                Another is good (Richardson) then 2 chumps.

                This **** if funny as hell!

                This reminds me of when Al Haymon came in and **** on everything.
                Seems to me the same thing but WAY more of it.

                  Hey Oldskool SOME OF US have been calling for these nitwits to work together ever since Dazn popped on the scene. I just wanted them to link up on American network because I knew the foreign app was never going to succeed with "10 bucks a month and PPV is dead"!

                    are people supposed to clap for that? something they could have been doing the whole time?

                    or could it actually be because the amended ali act is going to make it easier to do so?
