    This is correct, he's talented which makes him dangerous so he still has to build his brand to attract high drawing fighters for lucrative fights. I said in another thread these guys in his position should just fight journeymen for less money every 2 months on tv so they stay in the publics minds and look good with no real risk of getting hurt.

      Won't mean anything.

      Haney is a free agent, yet no offers are made from the Tank camp.

        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?
        Your comments have nothing to do with the post, you just came here to vent your frustration with AA fighters. LOL keep crying. With talent & discipline you have a very good chance to reign supreme. I’ll maybe come back in 18 months when you’ll be crying about the next ‘Ennis’…

          Because it’s a win win & has been for everyone that’s left Top Rank to join Showtime/PBC.

            LOL. Yeah SS is leaving this dude extremely soon. He’s been training with Floyd recently.. no doubt he’s being given advice to leave.

              I love how this thread is full of people saying X should leave X, and risk/reward nonsense.

              We're fans. We should be demanding promoters work together and that good fights will just sell we've seen that's true. SMH.

                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.
                It’s not like the fight happened after Bud left though. They still marinated and took over a damn year.

                  Bud wanted a certain amount that wasn’t available in November. They kept negotiating an had the fight a few months later.

                  It wasn’t immediately but it happened. Same with Floyd fishnets after he left TR.

                    Just the fact you mention crying & frustration say worlds about your personal life cause I sure and hell could give flying fu-K about any sport OR maybe your just a emotional person or, or maybe its just that time of the month?
