    And I bet 2025 sees maybe 2 great fights at 154 and everyone else just fights scrubs or has beens. Just a wild guess as a jaded boxing fan.
    that hasn't been the case at 154 at all for many years - which is why there is such a high turnover of belt holders - they all knock seven bells out of each other - I think Crawford is starting to realise that now lol - maybe Ennis too

        I wonder that too. However he did make alot of money and Argentina is pretty cheap. That would be a nice come back fight for Tim. If PBC can swing it in Australia or Argentina and stack it with Argentinan fighters verses Australian fighters. PBC gotta start making their money back.

          This has been going on for a few years now.
          That dude doesn't want tough fights. He's another Gervonte Davis. If he is as good as they say he is then put the money up and let him unify already at WW. I can't see him moving up to 154 and running the gauntlet.

Looks like money for Riyadh season will only be for fights in....Riyadh starting in 2025. Hearn already ran through the Russian's money on DAZN with no profit now it looks like he did the same with Turki-boy. It's only a matter of time before they completely abandon America. 2025 = PBC / GB / TR on Prime!!!! YEAAAAAAAAAAA
            There have to be more promoter fans on this site than actual boxing fans these days.

                It's not gonna happen at 147 regardless of money.

                Stanionis, barrios, norman will hold those titles hostage and wait on Teo, Ryan and Devin to hit 147 in 2025.

                Boots only option is to move up. And last week bozy said that's the plan. Unification or 154 next, nothing else.

                  You know what, I really want to hear the back story on why he just didn't sign with PBC. This whole promotional war thing is getting old.

                    Because pbc don't pay. Boots just got 3 million to fight Avanesyan. No pbc fighter makes that much in guaranteed purses except canelo and Tank.
