So you decide,is this the end of Buds career as a top fighter?
No wear or tear. In boxing years, he's 26.

At his age and marketability,I dont think he did it any favors but its possible he can give two ****s about that. He very well may believe his accusations to be true.
Personally i think he didnt get the offers he thought he would've when his contract expired and is just doubling down. He never rose concerns or declined any extentions throughout his tenure with TR/Bob and now, when it's possible the grass wasn't as green for him on the other side like he anticipated, it's an issue and sues his employer??

He will get fights over below elite fighters. We already saw Thurman lose to an old Pacquiao in 2019 and has followed that up with nothing. Thurman’s last win was 3 years ago. His last “good” win was 5 years ago, 2017 vs Danny Garcia. Josesito Lopez was able to get a draw on one card, and lose only by 115-111 on another.
Thurman hasn’t looked good since 2017 when he barely edged an undefeated DSG. Whether it’s due to his shoulder or age, or what, idk. But Thurman clearly hasn’t looked good in 5 years now.
You have Shawn Porter, who heading into the Crawford fight, was ready to retire afterwards. Going into a big fight vs a top guy, with the thought of retirement, is one of the worst things boxers do in this sport.
Then you have Errol Spence who damaged himself almost to death and couldn’t even be medically cleared to fight an old Manny Pacquiao because he’s so physically damaged. Will Spence even get past Ugas? Will he even be medically cleared? Who knows. All I know is that if Spence gets past Ugas, then Crawford will probably go after him hard due to knowing Spence is a few good punches in the face away, from getting medically stopped. But pre-accident, Crawford did want to fight Spence. Or couldn’t due to Arum vs PBC. Idk, idc. When asked, he didn’t care and would say he doesn’t need that fight.
What I am saying is, that the best possible outcome would be if Ugas upsets Spence, we can watch a grudge match between Crawford and Ugas. Unfortunately, I think Ugas is the last top, healthy fighter left at 147 other than Crawford.
147 is a ghost town, despite Ortiz Jr, Ennis, Benn and Stanionis looking promising, they are not in their prime yet. They still need more development. They are 1-2 years away from hitting their prime.
