Man, Bas in bed with some really shady people here based on that interview. Says he "hopes" owner will pay fighters 1/2 of their missing pay...when he gets out of jail for his last crime?! This is real! WTF Bas, what are you doing? Hanging out with junkies and fraudsters and still no explanation of where the money actually went. Says he doesn't know where the money is. Says a junkie guy in the org was stealing money from the org and was kicked out, but doesn't elaborate much more or say how much he stole or why that guy didn't get caught and the money returned. Believes his friend who tells him (from jail) that fighters will get paid still half their due.
Honestly, after listening to this interview, I feel like Bas is somewhat guilty by deep association here: Hanging around with criminals and drug addicts; Fighter management with major conflicts of interest in fighter representation; production company quitting for not getting paid; people reporting the org to the cops for money laundering before the event took place resulting in the accounts freeze...I mean, what a sleazy trainwreck. Bas, you may not be guilty here specifically, but you were part of a giant sleazy deal and it feels like there is more to the story than you are telling in this interview.
