Is Ricardo Mayorga really that profitable to pay $1 Million for him to NOT fight with somebody else? I don't get it.

It's a bond. He'll get the money back.

I was interested to see the fight, but I knew King wouldn't allow it to go through. If he has all this money and time to waste on something like this, why doesn't he spend a little more time and money making sure great young fighters like Devon Alexander are getting fights regularly?

dons paying mayorga to not fight then? didnt mayorga sue don earlier on last year for not promoting his fights??

[Kakutogi-Gumi]

That's the sad part.

Ninja Rua is pretty much walking through David Heath. Ninja's the only one drawing now.

Nick Thompson is out and both Estima and Azerado have limited draw.

King ****ed this card and took a lot of money away from people. Including Mayorga.
