Why can't Top Rank put on big events anymore? What happened?

[Punch on Tap]

Ironically, I like what Top Rank has done. They don’t have the capital to put on the biggest fights in the sport but they are scooping up the market share of young fighters. For the money it costs to put on a big fight they can pay a dozen young guns + Shakur, Loma, and Teo to fight twice a year.

Ultimately, Espn and Top Rank won’t give up the bag to put on the biggest fights in the sport. They just don’t have the bandwidth. Now that Messi is in the states, that’s a real level of competition and obstacle for boxing TV time and also when considering how much to roll into a bigger budget for next year.

Eventually Shakur, Teo, and others will have to move on once they decide they’re more valuable and want the big boy fights. Only exception I see is Loma and Inoue because of their bilateral deals tied to networks and brands in their motherlands.

U said it right, and that's how it's been for awhile. They sign a sh.it ton of young talent from the Amsterdam and Olympics, develop them into semi or full on household names, then they eventually move on. TR been huge on that, it's worked for them and we get to enjoy the cusp of stardom these young guys are reaching

I tell you what, once Bob Arum goes to the big Promotional Company in the Sky, faith in Top Rank is going to freefall.

They weren't to you OBVIOUSLY. ..are u even a boxing fan or a promotional fanfcukboi?
I already know the answer......dont watch then, its pretty simple

Why is this Top Rank fanboy so mad about me stating the fact that Top Rank can't put on big events anymore?

There are 3 non-PBC fights this weekend. Why would any serious boxing fan not appreciate this?

[GhostofDempsey]

A majority of PBC fights are disgusting mismatches. They aren’t doing big numbers without bringing in talent from across the street. Stop simping for promoters.

Promoter bop is shot

Another week, another big fight.....and Top Rank is not involved

I honestly think that keeping Teo away from interviews might actually be good for his career. He and his pops say some really wild stuff. Maybe bad publicity in which he makes himself look like a moron is better than no publicity though.
