So Jarret Hurd was one of those PBC fighters who would have given GGG problems?
That's so funny. Got exposed by Luis Arias, basically a nobody at 160, can you imagine what GGG would have done to Hurd, even a damn near 40 year old GGG?
There is a reason these PBC chumps are just fighting little inhouse tournaments and avoid all the other top fighters from other promoters out there, they would get exposed one by one. Harrison, Jermall Charlo, Jarret Hurd, Julian Williams, Brian Castano, Lara, Trout, Caleb Plant all these dudes are on a similar level. Put them in with a real opponent, the hype bubble is popped. Soon Spence will move up to 154 since even Haymon knows he cant beat Crawford and there Spence can fight all these second tier fighters. Then you have other dudes, either protected, totally inactive, already exposed or just flat out being used to build other fighters up, Tank Davis, Keith Thurman, Leo Santa Cruz, Marcus Browne, Adrien Broner, Robert Easter, the Dirrel sisters, Adam Kownacki, Luis Ortiz, Luis Nery, Gary Russel and the list goes on and on.
It happened to Deontay Wilder once he stepped out of the PBC protection plan, it happened to Broner who was overhyped like crazy, it will happen to the rest, let Tank fight a real opponent, let Spence take the Crawford fight. Spence is a good fighter, but not great as PBC fans tell you. If his handlers would be confident that he beats Crawford that fight would have happened already and everyone knows that.
PBC has a huge stable of overhyped and protected fighters, only very few have potential and most of them will not even get a chance or be sidestepped for the worse "A Sides"
Benavidez, he just needs to avoid the drugs, but I dont see him getting any big fights anytime soon.
Sebastian Fundora, but they might not even give him a chance because they want the belts on other hyped up fighters
Regis Prograis, lost to Taylor, but still good fighter, dont see him getting any meaningful fights on PBC.
Jermell Charlo, one of the better PBC fighters, lost to Harrison once and is already talking about avoiding upcoming guys like Tsyu.
