Why don't US boxers fight?
lad is at the peak of his career (28 years old) and he has fought one round against some chump in 8 months
How is it so hard to get these boys in a ring?
Spence looked too good recently guys been running. I do think he should have just fought his mandatory and whomever stepped up then. Better to stay active and get more exposure even if it’s a fight on ESPN or Telemundo. The more KOs the better for his highlight reel.
Why don't US boxers fight?
Errol Spence has already fought twice this year and may fight three times.
Anthony Joshua has fought once this year and won't fight more than twice.
Billy Joe Saunders hasn't fought this year and won't fight more than once.
Kell Brook has fought once this year and doesn't have a second fight scheduled.
Don't get this at all. Are they running these shows at a loss? If the promoter puts on the show they make money and they can pay their boxer. They need to do it more often
It is others fighters in boxing not just 1 Fighter to take all the damn dates. Not even Canelo fighting 4 times a year. Networks, Promoters they all have BUDGETS! The money have to be spread around to multiple fighters. Fans just all TALK but no fans are paying for 4 PPV's in a year.
If we want these guys to get more active and fight more than twice a year then maybe fans should stop crying about every rumored match ups that are not big match ups. For them to be active lets say to fight 4 times a year, realistically out of 4 fights 2 of them will be soft touches/stay busy fights until the next big fight. NOBODY has the budget to pay any of these Top Fighter Big Money 4 Times a Year. Fans are not realistic at all!
Good point. Julio Cesar Chavez took stay busy fights and guys here will holler that he fought nothing but bums. Kind of odd since he has 37 championship fights with the most defenses.

why do they need to? its the easiest job in the world, haymon pays them millions to fight scrubs. why do they need to fight too often and take any risks? maybe once every few years they will fight someone worth fighting to get people off their backs but thats one hard nights work every few years. im not blaming the fighters, in some ways the guys who take tough fights and risk losing their 0 are the crazy ones. cause they can cherrypick their way to 2 easy nights work max, a couple of camps and spend the rest of the year on holiday
How much has he actually earned the guy is at the peak in his career he should be fighting a minimum of 2-3 fights per year.
Spence is actually one of the few top fighters that truly wants to stay active. Ocampo was his mandatory, and it's not really his fault Ocampo couldn't really take the punishment he was dishing out. It's not like there's a long list of opponents lining up to fight Spence anyways.

Haymon alone is responsible for all these great fights this year:
Wilder vs Ortiz, Lara vs Hurd, Stevenson vs Jack, Broner vs Vargas, Santa cruz vs Mares, Garcia vs Easter, Garcia vs Porter
Haymon is the only one consistently giving us great fights this year. LOL so wtf are you talking about???? :rofl:

also funny your thread says "a year and a half" because you know if you extended that to 2 years it would have to include the Kell Brook fight that went 11 rounds lol
Disapointing for sure. Heard he wanted a 4 fight yr too. Smh. Hopefully the PBC 120 mil budget gets used wayyyy better than that 500 mil they reportedly wasted. Build these fighters and keep them active. Geesh.
