all of the other promoters are getting close to having double digit fight cards for the year. While PBC has only had four or five majority of them being pay-per-views. Boots stated his main objective was to remain active and what is PBC mostly known for having inactive fighters.
in addition, if he was to move up to 154 who exactly does he have to fight? Madrimov coming off a loss, would he get credit for winning that fight? Yes there is Crawford and Ortiz but do they want that fight?

Just imagine 30 years ago if Kobe held that press conference in Lower Merion High school and announced to the world that he was going to play his career back in the Italian basketball league where his father finished his career. That would have deprived us of witnessing arguably the greatest player to play ever to play on the greatest team ever! That's equivalent to what Boots did by announcing he's signing to Hearn instead of PBC where all of his natural American competition is from 147-168. Boots essentially signed with the Adriatic league (ABA). Shyte Luka Doncic and the Nikola Jokic didn't even sign with them.

Well I'm very sure what Boots needs to do right now and that's sign with a company that's going to take him to the top. He was never signed to PBC and that's why he didn't get the fights on Showtime. Now he's signed to Hearn and he's not going to get the fights because again he isn't signed to PBC...or TR. And for those of you that are confused why PBC won't do business with him now you need to grow the fuq up. It's called business. PBC puts on fights that favors their company on their network. The same for TR and GBP. So it may be a shock to you to learn that MR does the same thing. They always have. Hearn just doesn't have an American stable so that's why he is begging PBC and TR to wotk with him because he has no choice. If the tables were turned then he would do the same thing and freeze PBC and TR out. BEE-LEE DAT! And no Boots and Shakur are not a stable. They are two of the recognizable American fighters with no one except Euros to fight on Dazn.

What has to be maddening to Boots is Hearn lured him over to MR with the promise of making him undisputed at WW. Not only is that not happening but he can't even make him unified. I have been closely watching Boots since his days on SHObox. I have been following him since he fought at The Howard Theatre in D.C. back in '18 and I knew just by his style he was going to be something special. Boots is a WW dammit! His diet, his exercise regimen and everything else he does is centered on him making 147 lbs. He does not need to have his dreams of undisputed WW champ be crushed because he has ANOTHER incompetent promoter. Floyd, Roy, Sugar Ray, Tommy Hearns and none of the other greats moved up because of incompetent management. They moved at their own pace. Even the great Andre Ward secured undisputed before the coward azz media pressured him up to go KO that drunk ass Russian at LHW. If this is a 3 fight deal then after the Boots vs Karen YOU-suck-AGAIN fight he only has one more left you need to tell yo daddy and everyone else goodbye and call PBC. I can't wait to hear you say at the end of your fights ..."I would like to thank Al Haymon (and Espinoza)"....... that'll piss em off!!! Ok it's 1030 and time to go watch Munguia. By the way 'clapback thursday" is really starting to grow on me. He might be a fuqing weirdo buy De la hoya is funny as shyte!!! hahaha

oh my bad one more thing....these four should be with PBC right now (1) Boots for undisputed at WW (2) Bud vs all the 154s for undisputed (3) Shakur vs Tank for his biggest purse ever (4) Devin Haney vs a very entertaining fight against Rolly and then big money unified fights against Rayo and Puello .... why those four guys haven't signed with Haymon just baffles the fuq otta me mane.....doe!

Slow nickle Eddy. Hog up the talent and squeeze it like a pimple. His guy has to get paid more for signing with Eddy so no parity. It should be 50-50 for email unification. Not Eddy sets the rate to where Boots rots on the vine.DClefthook likes this.
