If you're not ready for world level, fight for regional titles. if you want a world title strap, it's time to fight the top guys.
    i readily admit its a problem....the issue with all the useless abc belts....that's the reason I don't put much stock in davis holding one...it really doesn't mean much if anything....cant blame the fighters really though.....more of the sanctioning bodies.....

Like I said, is he gonna campaign at lw without fighting for any titles? Is he gonna face leftovers or nobodies on ppv? He can be built into as big of a “star” as they can make him, but if he isn’t fighting top competition, it’s all smoke and mirrors.
      no one Is celebrating it....it does matter how old he is though....not to you...but to his handlers....

      the guys running his career are better at it than you and I....try separating that and your opinion of Floyd haymon and anyone affiliated with the pbc...every promoter works this way....

      again..i ask...was Crawford making tank money at 24? di dcrawford sell out his hometown at 24? did he headline main hbo cards at 24? what about spence?

      hes 24...age does matter! you expect him to have a loma resume at 24! LOL

        again, I acknowledge all that, but I don't give a damn. I don't wanna hear how this guy is one of the top fighters in the sport if he's not fighting other top fighters.

          I'm pretty sure he wanted the Lomachenko fight after his upcoming fight.

            Yep. 100 percent true.

              I'm not talking about Lopez. He could've been replaced. I'm saying Haney & others, including Campbell, were fighting for the WBC title. Loma petitioned the WBC & fought for the vacant title. If he's going to take away Haney's opportunity for a WBC title he should face him as his mandatory. If not he should've never fought for the title, waited until a champ emerged, and unified the right way. By facing the other champ

                what p4p lists does tank davis sit on the top 10 in?

                again...youve made this stuff up in your head...you seethe with hate towards anyone haymon or pbc

                when golovkin was sitting on top 10 p4p lists fighting the likes of lemieux and curtis stevens where were you?

                i dont see anyone claiming tank top 10 in the sport...dont see him on any top 10 p4p credible lists....show me..otherwise this is more made up nonsense in your head

                  Lol@ “seethe with hate”. Wtf is wrong with you man.

                  I’m talking about what’s coming from tmt regarding tank. They’re already trying to label him as the future face of boxing. I got no issue with that as long as he fights the best.

                  As far as the rest, the man is a champion...nowhere to go but fight other champions. If loma is too much for him, he coulda went after other champs in his division. Nothing wrong with berchelt, farmer, herring fights...but we’re gonna get gamboa for some fake belt instead.

                    you act like all fights are easy to make......farmer includes hearn......if it were always that easy don't u think wed have spence/Crawford right now? lol

                    go back to rexys posts...not all champions are real champions...just because they hold an abc belt doesn't mean everything and anything...theres tons of them

                    you forgot to answer....what p4p lists, that are credible, does davis sit on? since you claim hes claimed to be a top fighter......I remember golovkin getting put on top 5 lists when he was beating Curtis stevens and lemiuex.....were you crying then? I doubt it

                    theres nothing wrong with me...aside from me calling you on your BS...which is only a concern of yours....you hate anything associated with haymon and cant view davis logically in terms of how most fighters are moved
