    Yeah but not a single fighter in that division has fans. The money doesn't equal the risk in that division. I don't expect to see anything happen soon.

    Think about Andrade vs Lara? I'd absolutely love to see that fight but where's the money going to come from to make them fight each other?

        Cart before the horse. If you're saying you can gain fans just by fighting cab drivers, good luck doe.

            And this is the big question. They will never get a fanbase unless they get active and fight each other. This is where the PBC model is failing, because Al's heart is in the right place, but the fighters have all turned into diva's except for a couple. So now he is stuck between a rock and a hard place. The fighters should have to carry their damn weight or expect a small paycheck.

            Al came into this being the nice guy. Now he has a bunch of dudes who don't want the work. He will eventually lose access to the hedge fund, and truthfully I don't want to see that day, as it is going to be a real mess.

                  Angel, Oscar made a lot of bank because he fought elite opposition consistently. Fucking idiot, man.

                  Man, he just made his son look kinda bad.

                      Well, now we know what to expect from Gift Garcia from now on.

                      He'll keep fighting featherfisted shot to **** fighters or random bums until the day he retires
