Comments Thread For: Roc Nation Outbids Top Rank For Rights To Beterbiev-Meng Title Fight

[KTFOKING]

Interesting that Beterbiev might refuse to fight in China, in support of the Uighurs

Read this earlier and thought it was interesting. Maybe they don't put the fight in China or possibly Beterbiev is forced to vacate. Sucks.

I always expected RocNation to become a major force in boxing, not sure why they just couldn’t get it together.

Bring this fight to Montreal and they’ll have 20 000 at the Bell Center

Beterbiev was awesome vs The Nail. I was hoping Canelo would stay at LHW and have a crack at Artur. That's a fight I'd love to see.

Lmfao Lazarus..I thought they backed out of boxing after wasting the millions the live nation owner ponied up to get this started.

GBP are not out to self-destruct. They'll review again at the end of 2021 when Beterbiev may possibly have lost or looked beatable.

If Beterbiev is still displaying gene pool characteristics of the Hulk in December 2021 then schedule next review for December 2023 for possible May 2024 fight.

What? Where the **** did Roc Nation come from? Haven't heard from them in years.

How did Top Rank even let this happen. He is one of their best fighters. I wonder how long he is under contract with them, or is on a fight by fight basis, or does the promoter just has a deal with them?

Dude, TR put up damn near 1.4M for this fight. That is a damn good bid if we're going to be honest. Beterbiev isn't a draw at all. Damn good fighter indeed, but did you want them to put 2.5M up for this fight or something?

by who ?????

I mean Roc Nation or the Chinese backers won the bid and they get to determine where the fight is. What if they want it in China and Beterbiev refuses to fight there? What happens then?
