Would be a shame if so.
It wouldn't surprise me if they are leaking money. None of the fights have been particularly big and the purses are pretty big. I'm sure the winners got over $5m and even the other finalists got good money.
Obviously i have no idea of the business behind it, but the purses and prize money seemed to be quite a lot for events of their size. -
I have wondered about their future since they started streaming their fights on youtube for free in the UK, I'm no expert on the ins and outs of the WBSS but considering their pretty high purses you'd think they would need TV revenue coming in for it to be sustainable.Comment
