Lot of cost cutting over there lately. Bunch of senior staff gone and various deals been allowed to expire.

Any word on what Boxxer will be doing once BBC don't renew them? Price event is last event of the four-event deal but maybe Azim owes them a fight to make it to five events. Can't see them getting renewed beyond that.

Expect Azim to wind up with zuffa or to contract directly with Riyadh under the McGuigans. Not sure who else viable is even left in that stable beyond Azim.

Maybe Dutch regional TV picks your guys up?

Possibly

But I think the game now is going to become a two-horse race between Matchroom and Zuffa anyway.

I can see Queensberry struggling now they've fallen out with Saudi. Don't see Top Rank or Golden Boy returning as a force.

A lot of people wildly underestimating Zuffa due to slow start. They've just managed to get legislation overturned /amended at federal level in the USA. There isn't a promotion on earth could have done that except them. Gives you some indication of their power level.
