What does he ***"n look like with that hair? Guy needs a slap and then a mirror.

Rarely mentioned when the discussion is about Tank, Haney , Ryan ....and I think he gives anyone of them a run for their money.

I can't say I totally disagree with him in the age of 4 sanctioning bodies and their respective titles and their second tier "champions". Too many belts at each weight class has diluted the title of champion.

Right. It’s lip service. Though I have respect for his resume so far.

If he wants to fight for legacy, there’s plenty of excellent fighters that aren’t marketable and need a fight. Like Rahkimov - the one JoJo beat

As much as boxing die hards know that the belts don't mean anything there's no denying that they are a marketing ploy for fighters to advertise themselves for the sake of the casual sports fan and that's how you make money so.. Colbert gonna have to get with it if he wants that money

I think so too; he's got some qualities for sure, I really like his jab. I hope he can get his name up and start to be mentioned with those guys, get some new matchups going
