    And of course this article comes from Top Rank shill Keith Idec.

    If the Top Rank match makers thought it was completely favorable for Loma then Haney would be ducking him according to Good ole Bob.

    However now that Top Rank suspects Haney would beat Loma, it is time to distract with a Shakur Stevenson match to keep things “In House.” So much for Loma being better than Ali and Mayweather.

    Yet some on this site will act like PBC and Matchroom should ignore great In House matches and jump when the guy who divided boxing seems to see a favorable match that benefits Bob only. For example Spence vs Crawford.

    Top Rank is and has been the problem with Boxing. If we ever want a unified sport it starts with fixing what’s wrong with this promotional entity.

      Lomachenko is barley 135. It would take PEDS too get to 140.

        At least you admit Spence is ducking Crawford.

          The fighters that bring the major cash are promoted into that position. Promoters are only a problem when they get in the way of fights because they only care about making money at the expense of the fighter.

          Charlo, Wilder and Spence have no promoter yet Danny Garcia makes as much as Spence with 1/2 the skills and Wilder just lost 120 million. At the end of the day, money talks and everything else is theoretical BS.

            Athletes dont usually have THAT much power as they do in boxing. I think if you win you go up, if you lose you go down. Its that simple how it should work. You are only fighting at the level youve shown yourself able to compete at just like every other sport.

            Fans dont got it like that so idk wtf your talking about unless its about all star voting or something random like that.

                Actually they probably provide equal amout of resistance but neither has the experience necessary to beat Loma now. Not even close. Bob ofcourse see's the top rank signed fighter as more competitive, no conflict of interest there. Bob should throw in Stevenson with Haney since he's so confident in the kid.

                  Hmmm he was 144 at the 30-day weigh in for Campbell. Is that what you call barely 135?

                    Davis is a Jr. Lightweight and he’s not going to fight Haney. Haney will win a lightweight belt then vacate to move to Jr. Welterweight and I have seen them spar and Davis can’t deal with Haney period. Davis and Lomochenko need to meet at Lightweight after Davis dust off Farmer weak ass!

                      Fans have the financial power. If you don't buy ppvs or go to or watch fights that are trash then as a fan you can flex your economic power.
