    Reducing the wear and tear reducing the risks of losing or getting caught „in cycle“
    Increasing the purses

    Giving a future cherry pick the time to get momentum

      They like to cherrypick as much as they can
      Bingo. Bunch of overrated cherry picking bums.

      Pacquiao has fought 3 times in the past year, including an undefeated PRIME THURMAN.
      PAC ain’t about that coward $h!t like Spence and Crawford.

      That’s why I don’t care much for this new era of boxers. Pretty trash and quite lackluster performances these days.

        Most of these guys are PPV stars and you can't really fight too often on PPV. Also, they probably have what they set out to achieve, the rest is just earning money and establishing / continuing a brand.

          NONE.
          Besides Canelo and 40 year old Pacquiao, NONE OF THESE GUYS bring in any loot, let alone PPV sales.

            Not enough TV dates, too many champs.

              AJ earned something like 60-70 million dollars in 2018 and will be close if not in the top ten top sports earners for 2019? Fury signed an 80 million dollar ESPN deal and just netted 15 million dollars from his WWE appearance(s). I'm not sure what you define as a loot, but they seem like some pretty significant figures to me.

                    Ask Spence and Crawford. They the ones cherry picking.

                    Pacquiao straight OUTCLASSED the FAVORED TO WIN UNDEFEATED PRIME THURMAN!

                      Who are you trying to convince (cap'd) ???

                      I gave you a list and you didn't even have the ''Pac Pride'' to acknowledge it

                      Should I have cap'd their names ???
