why does he have to be a villain? Lol
The crowd reaction tonight is moreso what I was meaning by "villain" , or anti hero, wateva you wanna call it. Kid could really make bank going the Floyd route. Boxing his ass off, talking hella shyt, beating up everybody really (but Mexican/Latino fighters especially) . A pay per view king

Shakur could have stopped him and did it on the inside. All he had to do was step on the gas, but I know why he didn't. He's a great defensive fighter and they typically teach black fighters that being the best defensive fighter means being on the backfoot but you can be defensively responsible while fighting on the inside and he learning it. The Herring fight he gained a lot of confidence about coming forward and fighting on inside but he still wasn't all the way comfortable. This Oscar Valdez fight gon make him take that next step and truly perfect that inside game. He has all the skills to be the best inside fighter in boxing he just needs that confidence by continuing to do it on fight night. He stopped throwing the jab and began fighting in spurts. The jab opened everything up for him midrange and in close.

It does with casuals. People like to see fighters fight. Too many want to copy Money May but ain't put in the Pretty Boy resume.

:dwillhuh:Is that you Tim Bradley?


But he DID fight. Toe to toe. You really going hard over the LAST 5 seconds? THATS casual thinking at its finest. The fight was over breh.

:mjlol:@ seriously thinking that avoiding an opponent in the last few seconds of a fight that you totally dominated will limit your earnings
Trust once you get out of your bubble and hear casuals say certain fighters just run. They are the ones that make up the most buys. Definitely when you have a direct comparison to another main event fight where the ending was the exact opposite.
