      He needs a new promoter. Somebody needs to send him a memo and tell him in order to get mainstream exposure and publicity you have to remain active, then hopefully the boxing public will begin to notice you.

      Attempting to piggyback off someone else's name and only fighting once a year is not going to get the job done. Make a name for yourself by securing television dates and fighting as regularly as possible.

      Turning down fights with Lara and the Charlo boys were very bad career business moves. A victory over any of those names could have helped propelled his career to star status.

      He could have been in the conversations among the elites in the sport of boxing. Now he is just an irrelevant third or fourth tier fighter who hardly anyone mentions anymore.

        I've also seen bad management destroy boxers like Boone, Gamboa, 1000's other.
        Most boxers are taken advantage of by sleaze bag promoters and greedy managers who do little to help the fighter. Sad most of these kids end up broke with lost opportunities and few memories.

            Yup. And those are the LUCKY ones. The unlucky ones usually have some serious medical issues that make football concusions seem mild. They don't have helmets helping them out. Sht I've seen some shady places were they drag you out of the ring and leave you in the alley to die...

              He's the WBA champ, he can get a fight. He was also the WBO champ at one time too and his only defense was against Brian Rose ...

                yep, While floyd made his millions there are thousands who get paid little and are used and abused in boxing. What a cruel sport filled with leeches and greedy people who use these kids and discard them like old rags.

                  You better guess again, there is enough paper to go around but the one putting all the work should have the loin's share. Idiot.
