Why the eff does Bud get all these passes? Dude is 160 pounds in the ring and has never fought anyone his size. And he moved up as soon as Mikey and Prograis got their chance at 140. Now he is picking up a paper title.
Everyone crying about Mikey fighting the #1 ranked jww for a belt, should be up in arms over Bud picking up a paper title from the 6th or 7th best welterweight. Another easy belt and another weight. No wonder Bud only fights bums like Horn, his fanboys eat it up. Hey, Arum has promoted Bud so good, he can sell out in Omaha! Sure, he's less of a draw than Ward, and he's never fought any elite opponent, but lets just praise him as a top p4p fighter.
The reason this is postponed is because Arum has no idea how to scrounge together enough money to pay Bud for taking on bums. Guess what? Horn is the champ and thus entitled to 70% if he wanted. Not getting that I'm sure, but he is getting paid. Then you have to pay Bud 7 figures. And he has been promoted so well, he can sell 50k ppvs.
hbo isn't paying for Bud. espn isn't going to pay him a million plus for fights like Indongo and Horn non-stop. Bob is trying to get Manny on the card so it will sell enough to afford to pay Bud. He fought in August 17 and his next fight is in June 18. Not active and still not fighting the best. At least Horn is about the same size. Which will be a first for Bud. Maybe in another four or five years Bud will finally fight a top ww.
