    No he's with prize fighting. Thought it was main events. Still another small promoter. Only fighters I know on main events roster is Stevens and Kovalev tbh. And GBP donest really have many fighters in those divisions.

      No, but putting your former in house council as head of the network you do business with seems like a conflict of interest to most unbiased observers.

        Why work with other promoters when they can't even accommodate many of their fighters which are mostly on long vacation?

        The one to blame is Showtime. They sold their soul to the clown duo Haymon/Schaefer. HBO work with other promoters. Not Showtime.

          No it's not. Where has GBP refused to only have in house fights? This has already been proven wrong. WTF?

            So what are some examples of non gbp/haymon fighters getting airtime on sho, and not shobox with its fnf budget? Theres been a couple but only as prohibitive underdogs, like Jhonny Gonzalez or Murat or Konecny, no hopers on paper. Cotto is one but hes a big star, with no promoter

              Showtime isn't a promoter.

                      Calling names? Are you a child?

                      Trout and Gonzalez had excellent chances to win over big names just last year, and one did.
