    I think we can all agree that Top Prank is offical dead as a boxing promotional comp

    any. after that joke of a "fight" we see yesterday its safe to say that TBE was right in that they dont have nobody to feed to pac,, thats why the kid has so many damn rematches, the kid has like three different trilliges on his resume smh.

    and i know what the **** i saw yesterday. Arum clearly instructed Pac to hold back against the kid,, as much as i was rooting for vegas I knew after that weak ass punch put his ass down that he had no shot. Pac was holding back on the kid,, many instences in that fight where he could have put the pedal to the metal and put a beating on him but he held back to pot shot his ass,,

    Arum is so damn desperate to keep "stars" in his staple he wants Vagas protected!

    Top Prank is official DONE as a promotenal entity,, Haymon should just buy those clowns out and put them on PBC.

        The card was pretty decent overall.

        TR has Valdez, Lomachenko, Ramirez, Magdaleno, Crawford, Bradley and some fighters with come up potential like Michael Conlan. They have Shiming who blows but they'll push him anyway since he'll generate numbers in China.

        With Pac on the way out it'll be hard for them to generate PPV numbers but they'll probably make Pac-Crawford next and hope that Crawford replaces him as the PPV driver.

          you mentioned vargas twice and spelled his name wrong twice, you know as much about toprank as a promotion and boxing in general as i do about brain surgery.

          stick to reading forums revolving around sports you like, so you can learn, not posting bollocks..

            Oh yea I'm surrrrre there is going to be a Top Rank Going Out Of Business sale any day now.

            Boxing fans are f#cking extreme as f#ck lol. No one can be making a lil money & just keep it moving. Everyone gots to be the best in the world or going out of business or in need of retirement. No middle ground.

                  Can you imagine if you asked a friend if he saw the new Magnificent 7 movie and he went off about MGM being better than Universal?

                    Top Rank's only saving grace, as far as I'm concerned, 1)is that Arum has done a pretty decent job of stashing prospects, and 2)HBO is still in the boxing business; not everyone is going to launch, but having Crawford, Lomachenko, Valdez, Ramirez, Verdejo, Murata coming along, and others gives Arum a chance to churn around for a bit and hope that someone breaks through.

                    As long as AT&T still wants to be in the boxing business (no different than AOLTimeWarner no longer wanting to be in the wrestling business), Top Rank has a chance.
