    LMFAO, but yea that was his stance wasn't it? Who goes to the current version of Don King to increase their activity????

    The guy is clearly not playing with a full deck. He's a twitter toughguy, which is bad enough for a random mfer, but is a really bad look for a pro boxer when his best fighting is done on a keyboard.

    He should retire from boxing & just become some social media marketer or something. That seems what he's best at.

      Priced himself out of a fight with Jrock & got a title fight with Lara instead. He's very delusional

        He should've stayed with the PBC. Now hes an inactive fighter, only sparring on Twitter.

            When was the last time Don King put on a card? He has a few fighters (Stiverne, Amir Imam, Carlos Molina the HVY) but they've all been a part of other promotions cards. He actually won the purse bid for Vanes vs Sulecki. So he actually has to put on this event, right?

              Vanes thought the grass was greener on the other side and he was wrong. Was definitely better staying with Al. Would have fought again by now and likely for a title.

                Could give the fight to Arum to put on ESPN possibly?

                  Technically no one has a PBC contract. Just all under Haymon and he sends them to whatever network. So a PBC show (Fox, CBS, Bounce and at that time NBC and Spike) and SHO we all know what it was.

                    Correct. The talent signs with Haymon Boxing. PBC is just the name of a television series. When PBC first launched, Showtime resisted having to brand their telecasts as PBC, but Al created enough leverage with the time buys to get Showtime to #1 - massively increase their budget and #2 - co-brand as PBC.

                      That was a smart thing to do. The only non PBC fights on SHO are ShoBox shows and a few of those were PBC.
