Comments Thread For: Jared Anderson: I'm Going To Say What's on My Mind, Ya'll Can Take it How Ya'll Want

He's being groomed to fight one of Frank Warren's fighters.
Bob and Frank are buddies. The money fights for Anderson are in the UK.

Kid already talking about retiring at age 27. He's not built for this. Overhyped. Torrez is the best US prospect right now by a wide margin.

At least he's keeping himself active making money out of cab drivers and semi-retired fighters. As opposed to sitting around doing nothing waiting for some imaginary money fight that may never come. And he's saying he will get out of the sport when it's getting tough. Even then tougher means more money. It's still his choice to say yes or no.

Whatever it is, he should just keep it to himself. I don't see the point of saying it publicly.

Exactly! Nobody cares WHY he’s fighting, so why does he keep talking about it?

What is this about ? It seems like an odd thing to say out of the blue. It would be nice if the article had provided some context.

I think its mostly about him saying he wants to retire by 27 & he's only in boxing for the money.

Jermaine Franklin could be a reasonable opponent.

Agree. Thats not a bad opp for his next fight or two.

Ppl are asking him more & more questions. So he's being honest with those asking questions. Some of these cats can lie with the best of them & some are just open & real when asked questions. Jared is being legit with ppl.

not only is he talking about it all the time, but it seems to be ESPN's whole promotional angle on him, I turn them off, it gets boring seeing it over and over again.
