    I didn't justify the last card. Like I said, al is involved in some good and some bad. I think the promoter bears some responsibility too.

    It's clear, al isn't going to help gbp make profit while they are actively suing him. He is making gbp meet their obligations to their fighters while advising his non gbp affiliated fighters not to fight on the card.


    Of course the fans are the unintended casualties as we always are.

    Why Rigo v lsc is not the semi main on this card is ridiculous.

      i've always said that he was overrated.

      that said, he can be in good fights. that's half the battle. some of these guys are matched soft, and still boring when they get to the top. i think santa cruz is going to look good when he gets in with an elite fighter, and gets smashed.

        When ****ing Scott Quigg is deemed too much of a risk, it's probably fair to say that you're in the wrong sport.

          They are protecting him to try and set up a Santa Cruz/Mares all Mexico showdown.

          Kind of like the homeless version of Barrera/Morales

                122lb and 160lb have some of my favorite fighters, but both divisions suffer from the same problem: the best isn't fighting the best. Santa Cruz vs. Quigg is what we should be getting, but instead they're fighting other people ON THE SAME DAY!

                  Can't fault Quigg. Hearn said he sent him an offer and we've heard nobody from LSC's team reply.

                    Once they saw Garcia-Salka drew 800k views and it was a full card of mismatches, they probably figured throwing at least one mismatch on a PPV card would be ok. As long as people are watching/buying this garbage, they will keep selling it.
