Comments Thread For: Regis Prograis: How The F--- Are Two 140-Pound Titles Vacant & I'm Not Fighting For Any

[billeau2]

He fights once a year. He doesn't hold any international or intercontinental titles. He doesn't hold any gold or silver titles. He hasn't fought any eliminators. Why exactly would he be fighting for a vacant title?

Why does he fight so infrequently? Why does he have to be with the right promoter to have an opportunity when it is obvious he is a top name at that weight?

Well we know why the wbc didn’t pick you. Your last name doesn’t appeal to them. Otherwise, I don’t know what the hell the wba is doing.

F'd up I feel bad for Regis at this point.. but this man did say out of his own mouth that he wanted to travel around the world and fight instead of fighting the top dogs here in the states made the wrong decision by signing with Probellum, all the smoke at 140 is with Top Rank and PBC

Regis not only being screwed from behind, their making him kiss a_s too! May have to rub a ball or two.

[wrecksracer]

is he still with Probellum? Bad move. What can they do for him? Not a damn thing.

I thought his last fight bs McKenna was a WBC eliminator. I could be wrong. Pretty sure I just read it in the article

Can criticize his resume, but this guy has been the most avoided fighter at 140. Aside from Taylor who went to war with him bc of the WBSS, none of the other guys even mention him. They know he's high risk low reward and will most likely come out with an L on their record. Sucks he hasn't been promoted better to make him the into the star he probably could have been.

Regis is the clear number 2 guy in the division, idk why his career has stalled since the wbss, he could’ve been a huge star among the hardcore fans. Prograis vs Matias has fight of the year written all over it

[BoxingIsGreat]

I'm not gonna get involved in the belt stuff, but Prograis and Taylor are two of my most preferred fights right now, for Davis. Why? Davis and these two have a history of verbal jabs. Some venom there. Prograis is letting that boat sail. Please be loud and talk more crap to Davis. Otherwise, STFU about these garbage belts, that not many other top fighters want. Don't come across as a pussy.

I like Regis too.

Your message here is EXACTLY what is wrong with boxing. All these trinkets mean s h I t e. He is top 3 in division and no trinket will change that. He should be fighting for a vacant title because he is elite. You know that, I know that, everyone on BS knows that and the alphabet soup orgs know it.
