    Interesting.

    I guess with all the Banner/HBO politics Monroe was in a weird position. Its hard enough keeping up with the major promoter politics so I must admit to be a lil behind on some of these 2nd tier promoter problems that you brought up too.

      Them 2nd tier promoters have to align themselves with somebody. Haymon/PBC/Showtime or HBO with GB and TR.

        Khurtsidze had a great showing against Douglas, wouldn't mind seeing him vs. Monroe. I really want to see Derev against a live body.

          Those are both better fights than Leo Sporino. I take back what I said earlier.

            Monroe is a ****ing idiot to turn that down. Rosado is a name, and Monroe should be desperate for any name.

              This is dumb on monroe's part. He needs to stop pretending he's a superstar. Gabe Rosado is a great realistic fight for him. The three mw champions are tied up right now, not that Monroe deserves a title shot anyway, so I'd say Rosado is a great choice.

                I like Willie, but I don't think turning down this fight was a good idea at all.

                  Monroe could have been fighting Rosada on HBO. Since Rosada is now with golden boy. Now hes going to fight a Euro fighter and get KO again on Showtime for less money

                    Care to explain the logic behind that statement?

                    Rosado is known for his heart and is the bigger name of the two......
                    Monroe is a proven heartless coward.....

                    Monroe is clearly frightened of Rosado for whatever reason....

                      Dumb move by monroe its a winnable fight. Rosados right though monroe quit vs GGG when the ref asked monroe do you want to continue he said "Nah im good" On the other hand rosado kept fighting GGG with a face full of blood til his corner stopped it.
