Dan is one of the only players stopping Gbp and TR from becoming bigger monopolies then they already are. Warren had the same type of gig in England and now Matchroom will probably become the new Warren. We rarely see inter promotional fights as it is if ever.

Its not Dans fault or even Wards. Its what the viewing public demands. Highlight reel knockouts. Hard core fans have no say in the matter. Nobody wants to watch a boxing match. Hbo if it had its way would refuse to broadcast one. Rigo's own promoter goes public shitting on him right after he made Donaire look like a guy brought in off the street. Wards style simply does not appeal to the backyard piss tank who just happens to be the schlep that buys PPV on mass even though not really following the sport.They want that ko before the pizza is delivered. I dont think Arum would even sign him and I'm not sure Gbp would now that they have a massive contract with Showtime.
