I interviewed UFC antitrust plaintiff Jon Fitch about his class action, the 3 current cases, the Ali Act (which he has been trying to expand to MMA) and the new bill supported by TKO, and how hard it is to get fighters involved.

"The question is, why are you trying to get the Muhammad Ali Act changed or removed? The strange thing about that act is that on every show you have to declare to the fighters on the card the revenue of the event, which is quite unique. There isn't really a problem with that in the boxing world because a significant proportion of the revenue is paid to the athlete... I think they will think that fighters are overpaid because they are in relation to the UFC and MMA talent." Eddie Hearn on TKO's ambitions to alter the Ali Act.

"I don't agree with what [TKO] is trying to impose at all... The Ali Act that he had put in place is an anti-monopoly act, and what they're trying to do is basically pass a monopoly. It's going completely against what my grandfather stood for." Nico Ali Walsh explains why he felt compelled to testify before the Senate against TKO and its push to amend the Ali Act.

👀 DE LA HOYA SLAMS PROPOSED CHANGES TO ALI ACT "As TKO prepares to enter the boxing space, the first thing they want to do is change [the Ali] Act and leave fighters vulnerable. TKO needs this to change so they can implement the exact same unethical business tactics in boxing that they used to create a monopoly with the UFC. Think about this, the UFC was sued by their own fighters for this unethical s***. They recently settled on a $375m anti-trust lawsuit over claims they used illegal practices to suppress fighter wages and rival promoters."

"The fact that a new entity is coming into boxing and already wants to change a bill that has been in place to protect fighters, to me, is shady. That's the bottom line." Oscar De La Hoya on Zuffa-backed attempt to amend the Ali Act.

There was a time when the current editor in chief of the Ring magazine (whose owner is partnering with UFC/TKO to destroy the Ali Act and create their own league), was warning that boxing fans wouldn’t stand for it when talking about Al Haymon becoming “the Black Dana White”.

NEW: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says Elon Musk got involved in the government spending bill so he can lower his own personal taxes. This is some of the dumbest logic I've ever heard. AOC pointed to Musk's skyrocketing net worth and said he is trying to "further explode" it by reducing his personal taxes. "[Elon's] net worth has almost doubled since the election. He is trying to further explode his net worth and he is trying to leverage everything from income, from federal contracts to reducing his own personal taxes." "This is what this is about for him."
