Comments Thread For: Jamel Herring Says He Wants to Help Advise Frank Martin In The Wake of Shakur Stevenson Fiasco

[Jamel H]

Anyone have any questions, please feel free to hit me up on Twitter/X or IG. I got fighters signed with the new Pro Box series, had fighters fight on Matchroom cards, Golden Boy cards, and Top Rank. One thing I’ve never did was go burn bridges and make enemies around the board, but what do I know?

Not at all

Why would Spence let an outside entity "advise" his fighter, and what would he be "advising" him about?

Glad you asked. From what I was told from those close to him a few weeks back, he’s signed under EJ in terms of promotion but not the PBC itself. As of recently though I think he’s been in negotiations with Tank, but overall a promoter and advisor and two different things. I just didn’t want to see the man sit on the bench while the division is hot, and I have great relationship with Errol so I would've sat with my bro.

My opinion doesn’t matter yet I helped Jamaine Ortiz get way more money than what he was offered in his upcoming fight with my boy Teo. You’re nothing more than a spectator. If YOU don’t know the business that’s fine, but don’t tell me what I can and can’t do, so you know what you can do though right?

You tell him champ
Good to see fellow boxer’s helping each other
It’s a dog eat dog business , many just don’t get how easily you can get fughed over

Yea, I’m not managing fighters to cheat anyone or do a get rich scheme. I think Frank has a lot to offer, and I’d rather see him fight than sit at home watching the world go by. People also don’t realize it’s a lot you can do to put money in a fighters pocket, like endorsements and sponsorship alone. I’d rather see a fighter be comfortable than to worry about when their next payday will come. I don’t see why I’m criticized for helping a fellow fighter out, but keyboard warriors just love to show ignorance, I guess.

Fighters , especially newbie’s to the scene , need all the help they can get

Not sure where herring fits in between Spence & haymon. Not that it matters tho, Martin is just Robert Easter 2.0. He's not a bad fighter but he's gonna lose anytime he steps up to anyone better than a journeymen. He can beat the Rivera's of the world but he'll never beat the tank, Shakurs, or lomas of the world, there's levels to this. Hell I'd pick Schofield, Cruz, and zepeda to all beat him too. Maybe he can pickup a vacant title down the line when everyone better than him moves up.

That’s the thing, these titles are going vacant. We all know that. I’m sure if he can’t get another crack going the WBC route, they’ll be other routes he can go. I have a good relationship with the WBC, WBA, and WBO. All it takes is a phone call truthfully.

Now that Pitbull Cruz is going up to 140 vs Rolly, Martin should be gunning for that vacant WBO belt.

It was never about the title. It was about the money. His purse in his last fight was $250K, which Martin didn't deny. And he was offered $1 million for the Stevenson fight, which Frank confirmed. He wanted more. The title shot and the chance to beat a high ranking guy had no value. Retirement money was all he was concerned about. He really thought he would lose. And no one can do anything about that.

Don't know what Herring is talking about.
