    If youre at or near the top of the sport, leave TR before Bob does you dirty.
    Manny actually made his biggest payday with Arum so idk what your on about. Froid and Oscar were still young when they left so of course they'd make some more paydays. Either way they all left Arum as accomplished and established stars

      How the hell did they almost wreck buds career? He left top rank as a 2 division champion and lineal at 140 not to mention all the paydays he got.
      He had no marquee names.

        Well they signed a deal with Pac and Crawford to fight and then the money was never put up by the investors in Abu-Dhabi so it never happened and Crawford moved on to the Porter fight. Let's be honest, PBC had Spence, Porter, Garcia and Thurman over there and none of them were about to fight Crawford at any point and PBC wasn't going to let him beat all of them until they exhausted all their options on their side first.
        As far as Taylor goes, he's been talking about moving up for like 3 years and still hasn't and we saw what happened to him against Teo. He should have moved up for a Crawford fight and at least got beat up for little more $$
        TR is known to be difficult to negotiate with. That is nothing new and it is no secret. The like in-house fights and now PBC is doing the same.

              Holy smokes the insecurity lol, he is talking about potential, and he is right Inoue might end up being the GOAT who knows great talent unlimited potential lets see where he finishes up, it seems like fans have very weak shells built around their guy, the greatest fighter in history probably hasn't arrived as yet, its a good perspective to have when looking at the up and comers.

                There will be a time when Bud and Inoue will be more talked about than Floyd and Pac


                sorry old timers
                your era is over

                  He could had been a superstar sooner than waiting all the way for the Spence fight once he left TR. I guess you work for TR or a promotional company fan. When people have nothing smart to say they go right away with insults.
                  You can't sustain a conversation without getting emotional or really have nothing smart to say.

                    Lol. Inoue is a damn good fighter. Fulton hit him with multiple huge shots, Fulton is feather fisted. Donaire hurt him, and Donaire is old and not half of what Pac was.

                    Inoue fans are now becoming the new Spence pre Crawford fans. Spence was unbeatable, just a monster, etc. Lol. Spence another really good fighter, great fundamentals. Special beats fundamentals.

                    Robeisy Ramirez will end the Inoue hype. Watch. And when he does, you guys will all say Inoue jist went too high in weight. Lol.

                    Pac KO's Inoue inside 6. Too strong and Pac was special, not fundamentally sound.

                    Love Inoue but the hype is cringe at this point.
                    i've been a fan of inoue since i was a 19 year old kid in university watching him knock out narvaez in 2014. if you don't like his new fanbase then thats on you, not my problem. unknown singsurat and torrecampo knocked out pacquiao at flyweight so inoue would take him out in 3 rounds inoue much stronger at flyweight then pac ever was. also nedal hussein essentially knocked out pacquiao with a jab(the ref admitted he purposely took a long count). a slow counter puncher like marquez timed pac easily, inoue is much faster and stronger than marquez. i don't think you understand how good inoue is, he took a punch in the 2nd round against arguably the hardest punching bantamweight ever, broke his eye socket and still fought 10 rounds winning convincingly. pacquiao is not one shotting inoue. inoue is too slick and refined in his defense and with all the punches pac throws he is going to eat something heavy and get knocked out.

                      If Manny wants to come into an Inoue camp for a little tightly-focused mini-clinic for a couple days, if Manny has something on his mind -- a particular punch or something that he would like to see Inoue work into his repertoire -- I'm sure Inoue and his pops would be down for that.

                      Or, if Manny wants to be an outside consultant on weight gain, for going up to 126, when the time comes, that probably makes sense.

                      But yeah, it ain't really broke.
