Probably a good move. When your promoter outright says he won't make a fight vs you & the lineal champion in the division cuz he promotes you both you definitely need to reconsider your future with him. And that goes beyond whatever is going on with the money in this situation.

From a business standpoint, it would make more sense for Beterbiev to win a title and then do a unification with Stevenson.

It's not like he's a draw there yet.

ummm fighters should get paid...but this is bad timing this ibf mando is the most he's done in his career yet since he turned down kov and wont call out stevenson in any emphatic kind of fashion.

i thought this was what he wanted..legal ish is never fun for the fans either way

People brag him up but we never see him.

Dude is mad overrated, reminds me of the Pulev with his hand movements and non existent head movement/ defense. A walking KO to happen.

We all know promoters are ****ing garbage. Every fighter talks about how garbage they are nothing new.

"Some of the claims that he's alleging include - GYM failed to get him six fights during the first year of their deal, five fights during the second year, four fights during the third year. GYM failed to pay him his purses within 10 days of each fight.

Beterbiev claims in his papers that for his fight with Ezequiel Maderna from last June, he did not receive his full purse until August of the same year. Also, he says his fight with Ranoni Prieto from last December, was not paid out until March of this year. He's also making a claim, that in the worst case scenario, to have his agreement with GYM expire on June 8 of this year."

Can't get him fights against top guys under the same promoter and they taking months to pay him? SMH
