    I'm sick and tired of Top Rank Cherrypicking.....

    Crawford is now in line to face kkokztnnxiuikovskichenko or whatever his name is after fighting benavidez.


    The sooner Top Rank folds and goes out of business the better. They are ruining boxing

    On top of that they consistently give us shty fights and fight cards. No wonder why they can't do yearly fight announcement press conferences like the PBC. Because if they did it will become even more apparent of how much of a joke their boxing schedule is......

      PBC in 2018 alone has given us better fights on a more consistent basis than Top Rank has in the past 2 or 3 years.

      Don't make me list all the fights. Top Rank can't even do yearly fight announcements because their schedule is so trash

        Atleast Crawford is fighting a Welterweight...and a top 10 one. Spence facing bum ass Ocampo who wasn't ranked by anyone and now a lightweight.

          Crawford is fighting mikey garcia's sparring partner

          Ocampo was a mandatory. Crawford and Top Rank actually cherrypicked Benavidez who wasn't even ranked. They had to set up a fake confrontation before the Horn fight and use that as an excuse.

            The only one at PBC not fighting a cherry pick next is Porter. Spence vs Garcia is a nothing fight between a huge welter vs a small guy who couldn't punch at 140 that struggled with a converted kickboxer.


            Granados and Lopez are joke opponents that would lose to Mean Machine. Ugas is a credible opponents

              They are definitely the king of in house fights. And now when the best guys are spread out more then ever its making them look bad that they deal with outside promoters the least.

              That said they have been buying up some okay fights + winning some purse bids, but largely those are one offs that aren't doing them that much good.

                The difference is that Thurman is coming off a 2 year layoff and Danny Garcia is coming off a loss to a Top 5 opponent in Shawn Porter.

                Crawford is fighting guys like Benavidez and mean machine for NO REASON other than the fact they are also signed to Top Rank.

                Thurman and Garcia have better resumes than the Top Rank fighter as well and have an actual excuse for their upcoming fights.

                  It's the same all around. PBC just announced Thurman-Lopez, Spence-Garcia, Porter-Ugas, and Garcia-Granados. All mismatches with guaranteed winners. Why aren't they fighting each other instead?

                    Danny didn't take a beating in that fight with Porter. He has zero reason to fight Granados, don't cape for him. Matter of fact he hasn't beaten a single credible opponent since he got to Welter unless you think a shot to **** Robert Guerrero was credible.
