    But, it's crazy, man.. if you made $50k for a 10 round fight- you're making more than 75% of American's yearly salary in 30 minutes..

    What good is all of the millions, really? More leaches? More expectations? Less fights?

    Just fight, like Sugar Ray Robinson and Willie Pep, please.

    Camp = money.
    Crew (trainer, nutritionist, gym peeps, sometimes security) = money.
    Food = money.
    Travel (to/from fights) = money.
    Kids = money.
    Wife = money.
    Taxes = money.

    It adds up.

    It's like in the music business, selling millions of records yet having nothing to show for it. Like Left Eye (RIP) broke down.

      The offer is probably non existent now that Showtime is closing shop. Ennis would have just focused on Stanionis and might even have made the fight in November or December. It's too late now.

        Again, he hasn't fought anybody of note. Should be expected of him vs that type of competition

          Thurmans career considering his ability is a great disappointment. One fight since 2019. Might as well be retired.

            Yes sir, he’s smoked the past 15 fighters whom accumulated 63 total losses, among that group of 15… star material..

              Jaron Ennis and his critics can agree on one thing. He needs an elite-level opponent. So far, Ennis (31-0, 28 KOs) has been settling for whoever is willing to step in the ring with him. Karen Chukhadzhian and Roiman Villa were passable but Ennis wanted someone bigger and better. Of course, his preferred choice is Terence Crawford, the welterweight division's undisputed champion.

              Thurman only will fight for RIDICULOUS money. Its nit out there for him. Hes another Kahn. He will be fighting 5 years from now. Greed

                Why not send an offer to Spencer or crawford?

                  Spoken like a true casual. As expected.

                  Bud and Spence were the belt holders CALLING THR SHOTS. How does a the most avoided contender make an offer to them?

                  Did Bud send an offer to Horn?
                  Did Spence send an offer to Brook?
                  Jesus christ your a moron. Boots has been mandatory for a while already. If he really wanted it he'd put pressure on the ibf or wba to enforce the mandatory. Idiot he clearly doesn't want any tough challenge so morons like you can keep hyping him up

                      He should fight Barrios or better yet Stanionis on the undercard of the Spence decapitation
