    karl dargan

    why is he so inactive? is he mostly a sparring partner?

    i'd like to see more of him, especially in with someone tough. i know he has a fight coming up on the adamek-glazkov undercard but he's been pro for 6 years almost and only has 13 fights.

    same with his brother mike, rock and tiger allen. why did all these guys stop fighting?

    Dargan is fighting soon. Rock Allen got in a really bad car accident a couple of years back and was in a wheelchair. I think he's out of it now.

          yeah, but hype for good reason. awesome amatuer backgrounds and a great team behind them. hopefully karl picks up the pace and gets down on some meaningful fights

            i saw dargan in vegas. he always looks in good shape.

            he's probably making more money as a sparring partner than he is as a pro. guys who don't bring a ton of talent or an ethnic fanbase to the table don't get fights easily.

              I know he just switched promoters recently. Top tank to main events I believe..... We should be seeing more of him soon hopefully.

                good to hear from you man!

                that doesnt surprise me. i know he used to get down in sparring with mosley when brother naz was training him. probably a decent paycheck for camps like that

                  probably more tv time for him on those main events fight nights they do on fox sports. makes sense for him to switch because he's east coast

                    i know. i wasn't implying that it wasn't warranted.
