I thought that Cleressa looked huge last time that I saw her on TV , a few weeks ago. Now it makes sense. It looked like all of the weight was in her butt.

I can agree with some of your assessment but she’s not a bad person and gets a bad rap often for things not mentioned. I’m speaking of unequal pay and treatment from the very beginning and this May very well be why she acts out for the attention that she never received after her amateur credentials. I have never had a bad experience with her, so I appreciate what she brings and I could care less if she doesn’t knock anyone out, many fighters come to mind that couldn’t put a dent in a piece of pie but never received the same hate. I do feel we are both entitled to our very own opinion about how we feel about fighters etc.

I'm so sick of the crying over "unequal pay." The pay is perfectly equal to the revenue you bring in. Period. End of story. She has no one to blame but herself and maybe her promoters and advisors to some extent. If there were more asses in the seats there would be more zeros on her paycheck. No one gives a **** what her race or s3x or s3xual orientation is if it makes them money. Wasn't a problem for Ronda Rousey. And again please don't tell me it's because of the color of her skin...

If Claressa wants to be more famous and make more money , she should move to the U.K. , womens boxing is a lot bigger there than anywhere else. 12k is a big draw , especially in a market like Detroit. I'd say that if you can do those numbers regularly, what's to complain about ?
I'm not one of them, but a lot of people are not going to watch a fight where the possibility of a knockout is zero percent. It's just how it goes.

Lmfao.

If she weighed 175 on the Haney v Ryan card, my guess is 150 of it was booty, thighs and make up.

If you don't know her opponent, go down to your local restaurant, she may be waiting your table.
