JAKARTA - Oscar de la Hoya said the two promoters for Ryan Garcia versus Gervonta Davis' fight had reached an agreement. Now, just waiting for the resolution of the broadcasting rights issue.
Previously, De la Hoya's Golden Boy, which promoted Garcia, did not approve of the fight unless DAZN's streaming service was involved.
On the other hand, Mayweather Promotions, who represents Davis, wants the pay-per-view fight exclusively on Showtime. Negotiations were tough.
Speaking to iD Boxing about the fight, De La Hoya gave fans new news.
"The promoters have done their job. We have reached an agreement and everything. Now it's up to the network. Time to air, DAZN. Please, for the fans. Realize! I'm not in the executive but as a fan, please. Time to air, DAZN. Realize this fight!" De la Hoya said as quoted by Marca, Thursday.
Showtime and DAZN certainly have their own demands, especially with pay-per-view sales. They also know how important this fight is to boxing, which is why they want to make the best deals for their pockets.
However, not reaching an agreement and stalling this fight will only make all fans even more impatient. As De la Hoya said, make this fight happen!
