Bivol was a tough opponent and hardcore fans knew it. But from a promoter standpoint why put your cash cow into a tough fight when casuals don’t know it’s a tough fight, it’s stupid. Had hearn been actually promoting bivol this whole time then bivol getting the win isn’t as damaging to Canelo since people can appreciate the risk. Canelo being ok with fightinf bivol deserves all the praise tho

Dana just made me remember LOL and Dana actually walked the fine line of not going any deeper than the actual issue of not paying the fighters. I watched a video recently that I didn't see from 6 months ago at the time where he wanted to talk about some of the degenerate Behavior he does in his private life so bad. I've never seen Dana have self control but he had it in that interview couple months ago.
