All talk and no fight

Gary....can you just fight already. All the f--k you do is talk talk talk. Just get your @ss in the ring and STFU. You really should do more fighting and less talking. MF I am exhausted of hearing you run off at the mouth. You fight so infrequently ain't nobody checking for your irrelevant @ss.

Facts Biatch!!!!

All talk and no fight

So true, so true

This Gary Russell Man is a Mans man....Great Attitude and exposing verginta stank davis and the Protecting Boxing Cowards (pbc)....this just proves that if Terrance "bud" Crawford went to PBC , he still wouldn't be able to fight spence.........Crawford is better of with DAZN if he leaves Arum.....If PBC can't make an in house fight between Gary Russell Jr and Verginta Stank davis what makes you think they will do a Bud vs spence????

Haven't you learned by now that Gary is all talk and no results. I get your disdain for the PBC and the aforementioned fighter above, but Gary "All Talk" Russel won't be the one to do it. Oh and I hate to disappoint you but Crawford will be headed to the PBC.

Dazn??? You can't be serious. They can't offer him the high profile fights he's looking for. This is a business and from a business standpoint PBC has all the belts and that's exactly what he wants.

How many WW belts does DAZN have under their banner? Don't worry I'll wait.

Used to believe Gary on his boogie man talk. Fighting Lomachenko gave him a great deal of credibility.

But I do remember before Loma there was the idea he wasn’t fighting anyone. After fighting Loma he had a few misses some clearly due to the competition ducking.

Then I see him call out a 147 pounder in Crawford from 126 lbs and then duck the closer to weight Haney at 135? I no longer feel as confident about his inability to get these fights. Why hasn’t he called out Shakur Stevens? He is at Featherweight also. Or even Rigo struggling to get fights?

Gary also happens to fight once a year yet everyone is ducking him? Whoop anyone two or three times a year. You get a few showcases on that schedule. Now he has fought some tough guys but no one I didn’t expect him to beat. Part of me says he is being ducked by some guys in Europe. However... he also knows when and where his speed will carry him.

I simply don’t believe it all. I think he is ducking slicker and more technical fighters like Stevens, Rigo and Tank. With out some indication of a sparring problem, there is no way I would hesitate to put Tank in with Gary. And if he was that good why not take the Haney fight?

We know timing usually beats speed and Tank has timing, speed and power. It would be like matching young Floyd Mayweather against young Zab Judah and I see Zab as technically better than GRJ.

Lets see it. But I am tired of Gary talking about everyone is ducking him and not fighting enough to stay visible. There are plenty of attractive fights around his weight class. Campaign harder for those. What weight would Tank and Gary fight at? Tank had to get super disciplined to make 130. Gary is still at 126 lbs. If he really wants the smoke go to 130 lbs already and make some noise. But why wait till Tank struggles to make 130 to begin making noise from 126?

Like Gary but how much career does he have left to not be pursuing folks in his weight class or closer like he has Crawford? I could be wrong but it feels like some smoke and mirrors here.

I couldn't have said it any better myself. Those are strait facts.
