    Not really the fighters it is mostly Bob Arum who make more money keeping things in house instead of going outside of his Roster and giving the fans what they want. Arum never gave a DAMN about giving the fans what they want Arum does whatever makes HIM and his TOP RANK Promotions more money

    Not just Arum but they're all guilty of this, they all make more money when it is a big fight with 2 of their own fighters instead of having to go outside of their Roster and deal with another Promoter.

    These guys behind the scenes are businessmen FIRST so their bottom line is always $$$ and as Big Baby Miller just talked about, the Boxers have to be businessmen outside of the ring too if you don't want to get f#cked over like Mike Tyson and other legends did financially

    Boxing Fans just like to B#tch about everything! The Big Matches always end up happening eventually, fans just have to be patient...or don't be and go watch something else

      Absolutely nothing. Instead people like you defend Top Ranks BULLSHT.

      Bottom line is, is that their are no excuses for Crawford fighting these Top Rank guys. PBC is giving us good fights, Top Rank is not. He needs to cross the street.
      They already said they wanted the Spence fight. You think they can show up at Spence house with guns and strong arm him into signing a contract or something? It should be clear to you after the FOX conference that PBC is no different from all the rest throughout boxing history only looking to make in house fights keeping the money for themselves. At least Arum and King were willing to match their blue chip prospects against each other.

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

        Which fights are those? Loma vs Linares, Ramirez vs Orozco real good fights.
        What PBC fights good?

            Thurman is coming off a 2 year injury and Garcia is coming off a loss.Thurman, Garcia and Porter have all fought each other as well. Who the fck has crawford fought? He won't fight them anytime soon either.

            Yet you guys give Top rank a pass for this Bullsht and their cherrypicking. It's disgraceful

              Anyone who isn't a casual saw Egidijus get exposed as a limited, crude brawler with thin skin in his last fight against Abreu.

              Crawford will literally knock him out in 5.

                  Kavaliauskas was way better before he went off with the Garcias. They completely ruined him.

                    Bes***** is even better than Kavaliauskas, look out for that guy - hes already number 1 with the WBA.
                    So he’s going to beat Crawford?
