Comments Thread For: Prograis: Frustrated With WBSS, Their Actions During Tournament

[Southpaw010]

I'm not disappointed bro. They would have just robbed you over there anyway. You would have needed to win at least 8 rounds and at that it would still be a SD. You're better off fighting whoever then unifying with Ramirez in early the first half of 2020

Seems they only been paying people after they either threaten to drop out or threatened a lawsuit against them also doesn’t help that they changed when they would start putting the money in a escrow 3 separate times after agreeing and reneging

Wait so other fighters had to sue or threaten to sue for them to get paid? Am so oblivious to all of these. I was thinking why the sudden demand to have money in escrow. Did they miss is past payments or is this a way for him to get out of a tournament.

All y'all wrong
Regis want to fight Josh Taylor in the WBSS.
AB was talking ***** about beating his ass two days ago. Calling him garbage.
He can't let that slide.
He want that fight next!
Prograis vs Broner next
Mark my words

It's just an excuse, imo. He's been offered good money for easier fights outside the tournament and he isn't confident of beating Taylor so he's decided to duck him.

I’m surprised they haven’t even been able to put up $2m for this.

Where would that money be coming from?

What kind of gate does it draw? What kind of TV money? Seriously, I’d be shocked if WBSS has profited on any card yet.

Why would he be ducking idiots? Ivan B was the least talented fighter out of the semi finalist and he had a tough fight with Taylor. You think Regis worries about him? Haaaa

Hmm so Prograis was the mando to Ramirez and didn't enforce it. Jumped into this tourney instead. Now he finally makes it to the only threat in the tournament in Taylor and he pulls out. The only 2 times he has been lined up to fight a legit threat he has somehow avoided these fights. WBSS hasn't had this issue in previous tournaments as far as I've heard. It seems this kid just doesn't wanna step up yet. He just wants guys he can blast out of there.

Good point. I would be interested in knowing if Taylor has received any of he promised money.

Eubank Groves must have done okay and some of the other cards will have. I think the money was there and they’ve spent the money on refs, judges and coke

Give me examples of these "Robberies"????

The US is the place with constant robberies. The corruption over your way is extreme. But weirdly enough, no American makes claims that no overseas fighter should go there. In fact, the complete opposite. They say you should have to go over there all the time otherwise you're a "Stay at home fighter" even though the fighters they're talking about actually travel whereas the American most certainly doesn't. How crazy is that? But with the UK that doesn't really have any robberies, you clowns keep on saying "You'll get robbed" without so much as giving any evidence to your smears.
