Independent.ie reports that Daniel Kinahan is currently facing a lawsuit from boxing manager Moses Heredia and Heredia Boxing Management. The lawsuit accuses Kinahan, and major boxing powerbrokers MTK Global and Golden Boy Productions, of signing a client who was already under contract with Heredia.
This case revolves around Joseph Diaz, the 31-1 IBF super featherweight champion, who was signed to MTK Global earlier this year. The lawsuit states that Diaz was locked in with Heredia and that MTK paid the 28-year-old $100,000 up front to seal his signature.
In addition to claiming one of Heredia’s his clients was poached, the lawsuit makes a number of serious claims against Kinahan.
