This kid was given every opportunity to be the next Puerto Rican star and it seems like he threw it all away. Top Rank practically forced him down our throats, all he had to do was stay semi-disciplined and he would have bagged a decent payday or two before being exposed.
But he couldn't even be bothered to do that much. The red carpet was all laid out for him and he just let it go to waste.
Boxing doesn't have the infrastructure like other sports(NFL/NBA/MLB), you give these dead broke kids 200k-1 million signing bonus and they think they already made it. Instead of putting the work in they start partying and lose the dedication.
Verdejo/Frankie Gomez/Jose Benavidez - All had the potential to be superstars and they preferred the party street life.
Frankie Gomez disappoints me the most because he's actually good.
Lol that doesn't be happen in other sports? It's totally rampant. NFL has financial classes for incoming players out of college on how to not be broke
I'm not talking about going broke.
If you sign an NFL contract you have to go to training camp, you have to listen to your NFL coach. There are stipulations in place for you to get your bonus/salary. You can't just party all week and play on Sunday.
In boxing you don't have to listen to anyone, if your trainer starts giving you ****, you can fire him. You think Broner's trainers going to stand up to him?
In Boxing you are the boss.

i remember a while ago his trainer was in a radio station down here and he was talking about how verdejo likes to party with his friends and go to the casino to gamble...his own trainer talking about it like it was nothing then in christmas he told the same station in an interview how he stopped training like a month before christmas to "vacation" and come back a couple of weeks after january
