    Fans need to laser-focused on rampant inactivity issues in this sport. It's hard to attract new fans and follow boxing when big wins, or any win for that matter, don't translate to anything. They suddenly disappear for no reason.

      Even though it was shortlived he shot up to Superstar status after knocking off and retiring the legendary 8 division champion Emmanuel "Pac-Man" Pacquiao.

      Ugas is a very good fighter but not a star.

          They fight once a year and they're still expected to become stars. What kind of nonsense this sport has turned into?

            Top Rank promoted Floyd's first 35 fights and was a 4 division champion when they paarted ways. PBC sure as hell didn't "create" Floyd.

              Floyd gives a lot of credit to Al Haymon for guiding his career which is why I threw that in.

                Most of their fighters have completed their one fight obligation for this year, and the rest are about to. We'll see if they'll be provided one more fight before the end of the year.

                  I understand that. He's also given Arum his due.

                  Nothing against Haymon, it's simply that working with an already established star is not the same as creating one.

                    So PBC still can't claim credit for Spence beating Crawford, if it happens?

                      We can add Stephen Fulton to the list after he beats Boxingscene's P4P King Naoya "Monster" Inoue in a couple weeks.
