Boxers have to lie to promote their fights. They let themselves get interviewed and say things people want to hear. This is what happened to Martin. And I think Frank, even though in his late 20s, is not meant to be fast-tracked, at this time anyway. I think his team has elaborate plans for him.

People can call it a duck if they want but we have to remember, this is a business. Dudes needs to make paper too.
Shakur is high risk/low reward and has an unfriendly, safety first style. Stevenson is basically another Mayweather clone or Rigo 2.0.
3 vacant championship belts on the line - the top contenders are obviously going to go towards the path of least resistance.
Shakira is just going to have to suck it up and fight someone like Edwin De Los Santos or that dude from top rank Raymundo M.Last edited by HandsofIron; 09-12-2023, 03:06 PM.Comment

Shakur is also calling Delos Santos' bluff as a replacement for Martin's withdrawal. Haven't heard from this other PBC fighter Edwin. Is he also pulling the same stunt as Martin? They call out Shakur every chance they get and when it is offered, they turn it down.
If these guys are just clowning, it's not funny anymore. This is serious business, it not sport.Comment

Tank has called his name on numerous occasions, and the Shakur camp wanted Haney or Loma first.Comment

Why?? So Shakur can price himself out of it.. He will never get 50/50 with Tank right now. He will never get paid like he thinks he should dealing with Top RankComment

Where did you hear a million dollar offer? I haven’t heard that from anywhere else. Martin is like 28 already and I can’t see him turning down a million dollars. My guess is there’s some problem with the compensation to either PBC or Man Down Promotions regarding Martins services.Comment
