Hoffa had no choice but to abide by the mobs rule when he was coming up

When he got out and was gonna tone things down with LCN , and LCN knowing

Fitz was firmly under their control is what got him hit .

At the very end, before his death obviously , I think Hoffa wanted to wean LCN control

All Fitz did was play golf and let LCN make the big decisions , he was a front man
