    Leo Santa Cruz admits hes a protected fighter



    The joke of boxing talks about what is like being a protected fighter, letting haymon pad his record with sparring partners. He also says he will make the fights that fans want in the future.... He said the same thing 3 years ago, when is that "future" he is talking bout? The dude didnt even unify a single belt at 122..........

    Thank you floyd, for teaching fighters that ducking pays off in the long run.

    Yea the fear of losing culture has really killed boxing over the last five years. All you have for the most part is guys being carefully navigated, taking minimal risks. They don't realize people don't care if a guy loses, as long as they give a strong showing.

          Part of the problem is jackasses like haymon overpaying guy's like this for fighting cans. So why bother fighting a threat for a few bucks more when you can just live easy. It's the young way of thinking, get paid for doing ****all.
