Hypothetically Speaking, if YOU won a world title...

[TheIronMike]

SYNOPSIS: You won the WBC title against a long time reigning titlist and are meeting your manager for your next opponent....who are you picking?

Your record is 33-7, with 19KOs.

Would you pick options A or B or C?

A: Voluntary defense against an overmatched opponent in your hometown for $400K. You will be ridiculed and called a duck and a lucky bum who won the title on bad judging by BoxingScene posters. If yo choose this option, you will then miss the opportunity to unify and will called to face a mandatory in his backyard for 200K and get TKO'd in the later rounds.


B: Face the WBA/Lineal Champion in his home country of Thailand in a matchup where you are 98% guaranteed to lose via UD for 5million dollars


C: Retire from boxing after achieving your longtime dream, with 50K in the bank

B - pull a Gabe Rosado, score the upset knockout, vacate the belt and go into hiding from the mob.

A and B

D: Call out all the champions then pull out 2 weeks before the fight with an injury.

Follow the $$$$$ (one doesn't become an athlete to stay broke).
Reach the mountain top of the sport
Become the face of said sport (you know....legacy an sheeeeit).

Or cash out.
Taking your money, and not too much of a beating, and GTFO can also be a good idea.

Me, I'd like to collect all the belts and have a long reign

Please man you would follow in your idols footsteps take the path of 20% or less resistance while saying you the best

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

Would obviously be B IMO, based on the record it seems like this hypothetical fighter would need the money. I never knew Thailand paid the big bucks.

[BrilliantAJ]

Definitely B, if I've had seven losses I need the money; but if I do A, whilst blaming B for being on the 'other side of the street', the fans might be more accepting.

My ''idol'' is the representation of greatness.
Both athletically and, more importantly, financially.

Please suffer quietly.

[STREET CLEANER]

Even those calculated risk with a lesser fighter there are no guarantees in boxing. Always have to go for the bigger money. If you win the next one will be the same or bigger.
