Didn’t take Nostradamus to predict this one…

Kind of surprised this fight was even announced.

How would James be able to train Martin for Shakur, Charlo for Canelo, Spence for Crawford, Joshua for Wilder, without conflict? All of his fighters are the underdogs in those fights.

Not mad about it, just disappointed. Would've been a good fight.

Walks away from his biggest payday, 7 figures? Why?

Boxing, the business of boxing, is irrational. Normal businesses dont behave in this manner.

I hope all of the contenders and champions avoids Stevenson, still cannot get over that he got away with hitting defense-less person the ground and also hit a woman same incident. Stevenson good fighter but I hope his career amounts to nothing, he is a punk.

Martin is thinking longterm. He sees the forest. The potential money over the horizon.

He did them like a dirty Newark Rican LOL.. Newark is filled with gutter trash, the complete opposite of the city’s most acclaimed son Shaq.

What's the thinking here ?! Must be fighting tank for more $$? Going to pick up a vacant belt and wait it out and Shakur will have to pay him more for undisputed ? Blah

[slyellis]

It' was

about the price ,one or both fighters price themselves out and I think it was Shakur management team. The ****tz getting old.

Dangerous Up and Comer/High Risk Low Reward Fighter: I am the best! All of these high-ranked fighters are cowards. No one good will fight me!

Other Dangerous Up and Comer/High Risk Low Reward Fighter: I will fight you.
