De La Hoya: I want to eliminate all competition

[salty trunks]

ODH wants a monopoly on fighters, so does Arum, King and Warren. Boxing would be ruined if that happens.

how so? if one promoter had all the rights to every fighter there would be no need to shield a fighter, seeing how they would get all the profits regardless

They could also lock out other fighters and tell fighters exactly what they were going to pay them. There would be no options or bargaining power for a fighter if one guy controlled everything. If a fighter wasnt happy with their purse they would just put them on the shelf and forget about them like King did to many fighters. Its a bad idea that will never happen. Oscar is no saint for boxing.
