Someone needs to do the work.... what did Duva do aside from be in the gym with good talent? Roach? D'Mato?

There has never been a promoter who is out for the "good of the sport", there is no difference between any of them in that sense, there can't be.

As sad as it sounds, promoters are doing their job too well. They are supposed to hype fights and assist with keeping guys hungry.
