Comments Thread For: Spence Lambastes De La Hoya For Siding with Crawford, Critiquing Haymon, PBC Fighters

[Roadblock]

Anyone with common sense knows that PBC holds back their fighters and stops certain fights from happening. Look how often their star fighters fight. And when they do fight, who are they matched up against? Ppl who have no chance to win. Its easy to see PBC tries as much as possible to keep everything in-house and doesn't work well with Golden Boy or Top Rank. PBC attracted a lot of fighters because they let them earn bigger purses than other companies were, but in exchange for that, they fight against stiffs or they mostly sit on the shelf for long periods of time, which are both bad for a fighters career. But these young guys today care more about being able to go buy a bunch of shiny ass ***elry and post pictures of their houses and cars on the internet for attention, rather than stay busy and face tough fighters in order to reach their full potential as fighters. So this arrangement works well for this type of immature mindset. PBC worked with Top Rank for Wilder v Fury because they thought Wilder would win. When Fury got dropped in the 1st fight, they eagerly said run it back, thinking it waa a fluke. When Wilder got his ass taxed, PBC coached him to start conspiracy theories to cast doubt and make ppl believe they didnt see what they saw. Only a very soft brained person couldn't see that plot crystal clear. Its no different than election deniers. In fact, its a page right out of that same book. So thats why I don't care for the PBC too much subterfuge and snake oil

I can understand promoters spraying other promoters, but I cant recall a boxer ever dissing PBC, Im all ears if somebody can come up with a boxer signed to PBC that ever complained about how they were treated or what monies they got, from what Ive seen boxers were very happy with PBC.

So guys like Hopkins, Dirrell and any other fighter who said "I'll never lose to a white boy" you condemn right? Yes or no will do, but you don't have the balls to answer that one. Not defending Oscar. F**k that weirdo if I am being honest. Not sure how Spence ducking another black man has to do with racisim but knock yourself out with that.

I don’t condone anything said by Hopkins, Dirrell,
etc. Do you condem Tyson Fury’s frequent misogynistic and xenophobic remarks, which includes referring to Usyk as “some foreigner who no one knows how to say his name” and put out a video bashing migrants in the UK?

Like I said, they make more per fight, but fight less often and fight overmatched opponents, and that's just fine with a lot of the new generation, thats why they don't often complain. But Broner just left PBC, sonask him what's going on over there. the ones that don't sign with PBC are the ones who don't like that business model, ppl who wanna stay active and make the best fights possible, ppl who are a little more of independent thinkers and less sheep- minded

You can’t blame Oscar for sticking it to Al. Haymon along with Schaefer robbed nearly all of Oscar’s stable back in 2014/15.

Yep. Oscar had no complaints when the Haymon "advised" fighters were fighting on GB cards (curiously most of them weren't actually signed to GB). De La Hoya regularly snipe at Haymon, Canelo, and anyone else who cut him out of the money. Predictable sour g****s really.

As per Crawford (who I like as a fighter, but can anyone promote him?), he's happy if like Arum did, he gets big money for his fights .... while he doesn't give a d*mn if the fight actually breaks even on the promoter. It's good for him, but will be interesting to see if BL Boxing can make a profit on his next fight.

Beyond that, if anyone wants to put the money up to make these fight promotions go, I say have at it. It's serious money .... to make or lose. If you ain't putting that money up you really can't complain about fights not being made. It's always easy to talk ....

Oscar pac canelo all have lost to pbc guys and Ryan and ggg shot their pants ar the thought of fighting one so they lesser fighters

[Trey lance]

Right on, pulling the race card what a bitch!

You just mad pbc got a winning record against your fighters

[Trey lance]

Which is weird but isn't likely going to kill anyone.

Tell that to the underage kids he force himself on

[Trey lance]

I don't even think Haymons handling of black fighters is very good either, they talk him up but you got Broner and Mall Charlo with no funds, Wilder and Spence being blocked from career defining fights with career defining money.

I get accused of being a racist on here by a select few victim type race carers cuz I can't stand the way Haymon handles his business yet I can't stand the way he handles his business by stepping on the necks of his own stable of African American fighters just as much as he turds on other Boxers, the sport and its fans in general.

All pbc guys get paid you just mad cause your boys keep getting caught in lies

[Trey lance]

Trying to get all the Mexicans riled up so they can sell Spence vs. Fandora.

Gotta admit, PBC knows how to wiggle.

And your boys know how to duck when they know they can't beat a pbc guy

[Trey lance]

Is that you Errol? You seem to be getting frustrated so have chosen to start making it all racial.

I give it how i get it don't be salty you know it's true
