[Cheek busting]

In common.

Shaker Stevenson
Erroll Spence
Terrence Crawford
Garry Russell jr
Gervontea davis

Like seriously as soon as one of these guys wins a fight vs an ok opponent here comes jim lampley or jim grey with the "next superstar" crap.

And they will still complain and moan despite getting high six-figures/low seven-figures for showcase fights.

HBO and Showtime have probably pissed away thirty-fifty million over the l last decade trying to hype guys like Berto, and J'Leon Love.

Usually, they get weeded out pretty quick, though. Even the tougher journeymen like Collaza at that stage in his career against Berto, or the Mexican who fought Love, either KO them cold, or at least make them do some stank legs, and booty dews en route to a controversial decision.

2. Compile list of Black boxers
3. Cry
4. Watch interracial ****
5. Have a wank

A lot of the time it seems media and fans lean too heavily towards athleticism and speed when trying to pick the next big thing which is why someone like Gary Russell got buzz while fighting TBA after TBA. Not always about race/national bias as they did the same thing with Amir Khan, I remember Lederman saying he could be better than Sugar Ray Robinson.

I wasn't aware that GRJ was ever considered the next superstar or boxing.

they tried to hype him up but lomachenko squashed that.
