    i bet main events had a cease and desist order against him... an injunction by the courts to prevent him from fighting under any other promoter... he probably still had an existing contract for like two or three more fights... kinda sucks for him but it sends a message to fighters to be loyal to their contract and don't sign with more lucrative promotion outfits until you are a "free agent".

        thats pretty crappy, they should at least take a percentage and not the whole pie.



        as much as i dislike harris now, because i used to be a fan before all his amazingly ignorant trash talk, but the guy needs to eat, im sure he has people to support.

        they needs to be fair, all crap aside............. give him a cut of his money and take a percentage. if has any decent legal team he will get something out of this.

          Not only that but if they take the whole pie, then he will owe money to his whole team putting him into an even bigger hole

This is why boxing is going down the tubes.. because of **** like this..!!!
                Whoa! We don't know the details of the issue, but what if he had made a promise, perhaps verbal, to pay his promotional company for services rendered and he reneged on it?

                Sometimes people break handshake agreements and don't expect the consequences to catch to them until they least expect it.

                I'm not saying that's what happened. But, it may not be far from the truth.
