    Can you be "A-Level" if you're 33 years old, and your record is 17-2? I hear people saying Boots Ennis is B-Level and he's 24 years old, 28-0, with 26 KOs, 11 of which are in the 1st round!

      Keep that same energy??? ***ing youngsters with their sayings.

      Absolutely I won’t be buying the Stank Davis fight just like everyone else won’t.

      I think Stank is an exciting fighter but he’s not marquee status where whoever he fights it should be on PPV.

        It's a great point. I totally agree with you. Gervonta got lots of stick for fighting LSC, but it was a legit fight. The GRJ fight is a little different in that GRJ hasn't come above featherweight yet, but it's still a great match up. It'll have plenty of needle and its two genuine world class competitor's. As where Romero/Cruz isn't. Loma has just straight ducked Haney and that's fact. Commey in my eyes should have been after Haney as he is a champion, but to be fair Loma is a much bigger name and so I'm not gonna take issue with him on that. But your right, that many fans are fickle and change their viewpoint when it suits them.

          Roger that! Boycott is a much better form of protest!

            I hope you realize it's not up to Commey, just like it's not up to Loma, just like it's not up to Tank! "Principalities and powers in high places!"

              I can't see Lou DiBella standing in the way of Commey fighting Haney for a world title shot. I'm inclined to think that Team Haney didn't really purse that fight aggressively as they were more interested in getting Diaz. As where Team Loma were only pursuing that fight. I'm not sure about Loma but Arum clearly tries to dictate everything for sure. And Gervonta clearly has no real say. It's so frustrating.

                  currently on all p4p list - and u question if he is “a-level”? Its called level of competition. Look at Davis record, level of competition is why he not rated p4p and gets criticized.

WHO THE HELL EVEN IS ISAAC CRUZ
                    Agree with every word.

                      Maybe Boots should be on that list too? Somehow, I don't think he'll make it? In fact, I don't know of any 33 year olds with 2 losses in only 17 fights would be on that list! It's really unprecedented if you give it some thought! Just ask yourself, how does a P4P fighter lose to 34 year old Salido, and a 23 year old in only his 15th professional fight? What other fighter would have that on his resume, and still be considered "A-Level?"
