Thurman v Barros is an eliminator because........

[DaNeutral.]

The reason Morris slimy Sillyman has now sanctioned an eliminator between somebody who hasn't fought in over 2 years after losing and somedody who came from a weight below who last got knocked out by somebody who came from the weight below that must be for 1 of 3 reasons.

Reason 1, Mr Haymon needs something lined up for Errol Spence after Ugas as a block for the inevitable Terrence Crawford pressure.

Reason 2, The PBC need to beef up the importance of the occasion to justify the price tag so asked one of their partner in crimes to do them a solid.

Reason 3, Morris the sleaze just sees an opportunity to bleed a fight and has stamped it as some BS eliminator to get a cut of that sweet sweet money.

[just the facts]

Because that fight has been eliminated from the list of fights fans will pay to see.

[YOU WILL LOSE]

if barrios forgets the script and somehow wins, it will also give tank an opponent he already beat to make his ww debut

#2 is just about right.

"Hey, let's just tell them it's gonna be an Eliminator for 3 belts so they'll buy it! Yeah....that's it...that'll get 'em this time!"

It's a tale as old as time....guys who are supposed to fight actually make more money off of the IDEA and HOPES of fighting each other...rather than actually fighting. Their handlers attempt to bleed fans dry by shooting them a line of shit about a possible fight when they know they're avoiding each other.

All three for the win!
