Larry Spinks related to the Spinks brothers???

So Devin being #2 & a legit champ & not a paper champ makes him a top dog but not a top dawg???

You got A LOT of rules & unique definitions bruh. I'd argue this is partially why casual fan interest sucked for yrs til recently with novelty boxers & Turki just going for fan...

I think Bud's 147 ship has sailed. So the only place the fight would happen at is 154.

And just based on the risk vs reward component I don't think this makes sense outside of Turki/Saudi involvement & big stupid money that'd make it impossible to not happen....

First L's are game changers already anyway. That first L reaction defines more boxers trajectory post-that L more than anything else. Its not a perfect record thing, its a first L thing. Kinda like how super competitive guys hate losing more than they love winning....

I was researching some sh^t the other day & came upon this article from a May 1933 Detroit newspaper about a boxer named Larry Spinks from St Louis. Mentioned he was 20yrs & he'd had 45 fights & beat Archie Sexton + was a sparring partner to some big names of the day. I couldn't find him...

So Haney himself was a paper champ who turned himself into a legit champ? Thats fair. Too involved for me to always be measuring, but fair. I'll stick with my Ricky Bobby take of "if you aren't first, you're last".

Isn't beating Devin beating a top dawg?

Agree he...

Isn't being rich incentived enough already?

Non-rich ppl with ideas will figure out how to make their idea work like they did for generations before this worship the rich world we've created came to be.

This generation too greatly values money over time & ideas. That needs...

We are definitely living in a simulation. What are the odds there is a phallic named individual with dirt on Trump.

Unless a lot of you guys are worth 10M or more the cucking for those who are is weird to me.

If you want a no holds barred, uber capitalism, all that matters is money wet dream society its only gonna get worse here.

So you can win a paper belt & turn it into a real belt by who you fight? Also what if you dethroned a paper champ who had made a few quality defenses before you beat him? Is that still a paper belt or is it legit even if you hasn't considered it legit previous to the L?

Randomly this...

The jokes write themselves for this one.

Team Haney has been about taking good $ & good opportunities not being "protected". Team Haney wouldn't have done half of what they have done or made half the money they've made if they took the "protect the 0" approach.

This game from the boxer POV should be about...

There are rumors Eddie is about to sign GAR. GAR was at the Devin vs Ryan presser &/or the weigh in last wk when I didn't see many pbc faces there.

At this point anyone who wasn't fighting enough BEFORE the less dates to fill Amazon deal needs to gtfo of Dodge. The writing is on the...

"Found out"? You mean lose?

Why we gotta act like losing = your career is a lie?

Sometimes you were #1 or top ten & lose to a lesser accomplished mfer. That doesn't mean you ain't sh^t or you weren't sh^t the whole time.

Everything always gotta be...

Almost every belt holder is a paper champ then. Only one guy is #1. Thats the real champ at whatever weight.

Wtf is the difference between a top 4 belt guy & a "paper champ" guy from your pov?...

Don't test WBC Guy. That mfer will have KingRyweight 143lb rankings next month....

[Eff Pandas]

Bold prediction to say a 25yr old top ten-ish guy (hes prob top 3 at 143.2lbs lol) won't win one of 4 belts in his career. 147 is pretty wide open now, but it'll be a lot more wide open after Boots goes to 154. I could 100% see him touch a belt at 147 in the next few yrs. I don't foresee him being #1...

[Eff Pandas]

Couldn't disagree more about this. I think Bill helped shape & mold the blueprint they've been following for the 8.5yrs of Devin's career where they were undefeated til Saturday, became undisputed & #1 at 135, won a belt & was seen as #2 by most at 140 & navigating through multiple promoters...

I think how Tiktok works today is how a lot more things are gonna work in the future. There is no curator of things you like that I've seen thats better than Tiktok. Now switch that over to Amazon, Taco Bell, Walmart, etc & so on & imagine how companies will exploit your info to max out the...

Lol that sh^t is equally hilarious & cringey.

How there isnt some Real Boxers of Las Vegas reality show is beyond my understanding....

Yea technology quits moving forward if you pay ppl minimum wage lol.

Get rid of employees & no one can buy the sh^t you're selling. And businesses go outta business. Like I said its a 2 way street....
