Boxing Fans Erupt On Promoter For Not Paying Fighter In Full

The President of a new bare knuckle boxing promotion that has attracted former world pro boxing champion Paulie Malignaggi to its stable, David Feldman, is getting absolutely hammered online after this weekend’s event.

Following a bout that he wasn’t overly pleased with he decided to take it upon himself to get the microphone, enter the ring and announce that one of the fighters, who literally put his health and life on the line — would not received his pay in full due to the fight not being entertaining enough in the promoters eyes.

A stunning move really. I’m not sure what Athletic Commission licensed this or if indeed any did but this is highly, highly dubious to put it mildly and a downright disgrace to someone who literally risked his life for the entertainment of the general public:

Not a good luck at all.
