    I see no point of leaving if he can't get Tank to fight him.

      Ortiz & Boots are around the same age with the same resumè. Talent is going reign supreme eventually, similar with Bud but he had to be patient and wait till 35 years of age. Boots probably gets his chance within the next 18 months
      If you don’t have great comprehension of what your read. What can I say other than “not my problem”. Maybe go take a jr college English class?
      Talent doesn’t rein supreme. Ask Broner. Theirs many others who had remarkably athleticism and speed that ARENT in the HOF.
      If you’re going to argue please do it with FACTS. Not your feelings like a woman. Ok?

        I can’t see Team Tank/PBC being keen to make that happen. The risk vs reward just doesn’t make sense. Shakur is essentially too good for his own good IMO.

        I see Tank vs Shakur following a similar trajectory to Spence vs Crawford. I’d be amazed if it happens anytime soon tbh.
        Agreed. That fight happened in June 23, about 19 months after Crawford left TR in Nov 21.

        I think Crawford has already been advising Shakur about departing TR. shakur and his team have seen how Floyd and Crawford, boxers similar to him, managed better after they left TR. same with fishnets.

        Shakur also just saw that $25 mil payday Bud got as well.

        I’m gonna follow the money on this one.

          Why should he leave? You really thank that Tank would fight him?

            See my response above. I completely understand your opinion.

            That said, I think too many posters get stuck in a narrative, particularly with PBC boxers.

            As we saw with Spence and Crawford, the fight happened when Bob was out of the way.

            I get that for decades the sport didn’t operate this way, but this is now.

            That suggests to me Tank and Shakur fight once each can maximize their purses. That will only happen when he is not a TR employee.

              He should also leave because odh, Floyd, manny and now Crawford show that leaving TR can be extremely beneficial financially for top boxers.

              Yes. When Tank and Shakur can maximize their purses they will fight.

                No chance Tank fights anybody good without rehydration clause.

                  - - Arum helped get the Spence fight for Craw.

                  Haymon rejected Craw. Nobody knows Shakur save he mug shot!

                      Arum blocked the fight according to Crawford. Haymon making the best fights
