    He does this sh^t all the time & idk why more mfers don't steal this move. It helps get your guys name out their more no matter how many people agree or don't agree with your take. It sounds good. And there is something that works when you compare a person with someone who's achieved great things.

    Randomly Eff Pandas is the best critiquer of troll threads since Sugar Ray Robinson.
    Only Bob can get away with doing that because he promoted Ali lol. He compares Crawford to SRL because he promoted SRL. If someone young like Eddie Hearn came out and do that then Bob would roast them and rightfully so.

      And I think thats more than fair.
      Now that Ruiz shocked the world his fights will sell regardless of his appearance.

      Which is a reminder that the best promotion is to make fights between the top boxers and let the results play out naturally.

          I think they could get away with it. I mean its not like they don't do it now, they just don't do it as much. Idk that anyone cares that Bob promoted some Ali & SRL fights & Eddie or Oscar didn't.

          And these remarks are still cray cray if Bob promoted Ali & SRL anyway. Plus its opinion sh^t. You can't prove Bob isn't right cuz its an opinion.

            Oh of course you can’t prove it, bob’s doing his job and promoting his guys. But it’s just way more legit if Bob says it.

            If Eddie says it they’d roll their eyes and ask if he was alive to watch Ali live.

              Ruiz left Arum because they robbed Ruiz of the WBO title against Parker. I had Ruiz winning that fight 115-113.

              Arum had stake in Joseph Parker so he had his guy Ruiz sacrificed.

              Once Ruiz left Arum he won a world title and got the push he deserved. heck even old Manny Pacquiao who is at the tail end of his career has gotten a resurgence and push by Al Haymon and PBC
