Why Does Top Rank leave a bad taste for boxing?

[Lester Tutor]

I guess perhaps the last Mexican trio card of Valdez, Magdaleno, and Zurdo was a good one, but the Horn and Walters to Sosa bouts... I mean does Pacquiao really care or follow boxing as Arum? They are still trying to make the Salido 2 bout. For who are these matches made for? What type of fans?

We've got guys like Thurman, Porter, or Spence that literally voice out who they want to fight to be at the top. Does Pacquiao acknowledge his final stage in his career?

Seems like Top Rank sells to idiots

Obviously Top Rank has bad cards because fans never give credit to the promotional company whenever they make good cards. Always some political B.S to discredit arum.

Top Rank seems to do everything right from building and promoting their fighters, signing great talent, being current with technology, placing fights in locations that make sense...they do everything right except for the most important thing: consistently making competitive fights.

Of course Top Rank follows traditional and consistent protocol, but what's up with the the Horn bout? A non motivated PAC at a presser...

It's just surreal that Pacquiao hasn't called out top Welterweights. Is it ego or shook?

Promoters promote. Fighters fight. The Triple-Mexicard at StubHub Wasn't going to air on any premium cable outlet. Ergo, Top Rank produced their own PPV. No different than their Latin Fury PPV series. While this card isn't meant to do huge ppv numbers, it will do a solid live gate with all the Latino fans buying tickets. Top Rank is simply catering to one fan base.

As for Pacquiao? He can take an easy fight on paper at this stage of his career. The reward outweighs the risk fighting Jeff Horn.

HBO is getting beat up. They should have aired those Mexican bouts.
