      What's the cost of going free agent? This has never been discussed at length here. What are the disadvantages? On surface it looks ideal, go where fights and money are and not restricted to one promotional outfit.

        It sounds ideal but that would mean the fighter needs the connections to get through the door at tv networks, promoters working with posisble opponents, private investors without whom most fights would fall through and stadium/event organisers, to say the least.

        Experienced ifghters may have built up such contacts but young fighters andt hose who are looking to buy their way up rnakings don't have such contacts and need promoters and managers. Sadly.

            Why not? Most of them had only one fight last year. Thurman, Porter, Broner, Jermell, Quillin, Jacobs, Peterson, Trout, Martirosyan, Lara, Andrade, Stevenson, Berto, DeGale, Direll, etc., plus other lesser known fighters.

                Good point. But other than Vanes, none of those guys appear to be unhappy with their position. I'm sure Allen is paying them very well
