Carlos Adames, for instance, is not in a hurry to work on his next fight. He's been content fighting once a year and satisfied with being able to buy shiny gold fat necklaces.

    Yeah, let the part-timers stay on vacation as long as they want to. There's also Jermell who is expected to appear probably in 2025. So... it's a case by case basis.
    I'm pretty sure Adames isn't a 7-figure fighter. He hasn't even gotten a title shot yet that he's owed by the WBC. It's guys like him that may benefit the most from leaving or getting released from whatever contract is tying him to PBC.

      It doesn't matter if they say they can....if they never actually DO go anywhere else. Boxers, especially the ones you mentioned, talk a lot of shxt.

        Most of them fight once a year, so I don't think the sense of urgency is even there whether they can or not.

          I wonder about Stanionis, whose fight was canceled again. I'd take any offer of fights anywhere if I were in his shoes.

            The exodus is beginning I think.

              Low and mid level guys hopefully have seen the writing on the walls.

              Especially when the news broke that the plan for the Canelo 3 fights was Mel, Mal and Spence. I'd be leaving ASAP.

                Seems like they can’t get dates too. Aside from the March 30th PPV, nothing else is announced or even rumoured aside from Tank-Martin in June.

                  Seems like its falling apart, the canrlo situation has harmed them.

                  Tszyu is going to be stripped of his belt when he fights thurman.

                  spence and wilder look done

                  The charlo brothers look like they have 1 foot out of the sport.

                  Seems like they are becoming an after thought.

                      If he loses he'll be stripped. The belt group guy said it. If he beats Keef he won't lose the belt.
