What stars has PBC created?

[al-Xander]

You can't make stars out of boxers who fight once a year. It's impossible.

What do you mean by “created stars”? Promoters don’t create stars, stars create themselves. Promoters create opponents for stars to beat.

Floyd, Ali, Leonard, odh, canelo, weren’t created by any promoter. They either came from the Olympic with a huge following or created fan interest by their outside the ring “antics” or both.

Super true, it's childhood trainers who really build guys, but to be anti PBC let's just ignore that.

How come Top Rank has such a good track record of building stars, then?

Post Bradley? Not really. Their Best talent was Crawford, who's having a career peak more or less with PBC.

A legit criticism of PBC. Versus the typical racist whining.

that’s true lol have to give PBC credit for turning Bud into a superstar. Top Rank/ESPN never had the stable or marketing strategy to make him a star.

Will probably be similar with Shakur.

As far as I know, TS is a huge Mayweather fan and is black.

Probably is. But typically a lot of criticism of PBC comes from a stormfont type place. That said, they certainly aren't perfect and they're many things you can criticize them on. But they are the best promotional company in boxing rn, for what that's worth.
