Very good post!!!

I think boxing in general encourages this not just PBC. Messed up business model and now boxers understand that it is.

Fighters basically have to choose between legacy and making a good living that will allow them to take care of loved ones, pay medical bills and not work till the age of 70+.

Given the choice between cherry picking and staying in the mix for bigger paydays and risking it all for legacy and promoters using any setback to underpay.... most
of us would go for the $$. Now that Floyd created game plan to come out on top financially, most are using a variation of that plan including promoters.

It's not an either/or decision though. Chasing legacy/best fights can lead to bigger dollars down the road.

Boxing economics still seem out of wack too

2 soft tune ups in a row, not good. What ever happened to eleminator fights between 2 top guys for a title shot? That's who Danny should be fighting instead of milking his way to another shot.

Pbc likes to recycle these dudes

Would expect no less of Garcia, what a damn joke.

Yes let’s completely ignore it was supposed to be Spence before he got in a wreck.

I'm not surprised Danny Garcia fighting another blown-up Junior welterweight back-to-back. At this point hose Josesito Lopez would whoop Danny Garcia's ass

You’re reaching hard. The DSG hate is out of control. I can see why he’s unlikeable but Lopez is taylor made for Garcia. He’d probably stop him.

I saw an interview of Danny Garcia's dad a few weeks before the Canelo fight. He was questioning why Canelo would fight Kovalev, saying he could get hurt and asking if he's gonna have a life after the fight.

When the interviewer told him it was about chasing greatness, leaving a legacy, he answered "But why?!". That tells you all you need to know about Danny Garcia's mentality. The PBC encourages this behavior it seems.

Great anecdote. Danny's a joke. If PBC ever allowed these guys to fight outside PBC, I'd bet you find that Danny might not even be a top 10 welterweight.

Another reason Hearn and DAZN are the class of televised pro boxing right now.
We need this as much as Charlo / Hogan.

Danny has blown a once promising carrer

Yeah let's completely ignore there are far better opponents to be chosen when that news hit, elwith close to enough time for a full training camp. What a dumb excuse. Besides I personally doubt Danny would have gone through with a fight against Spence. This is much more fitting and expected of Cherry Garcia.
