What's your perspective on the Jacobs/Rozier thing?

If I remember correctly, you were somewhat close to the camp.


there were issues leading up to the Canelo fight imo I started to notice the s & c coach was there more for shyt where Dre would be involved. What those issues are idk :hubie:


My son is working w Scooter(s&c coach) this weekend ill ask him and see if he know anything

This is a big piece of the puzzle. It actually makes sense, that he may have felt that the amount that he gave him was fair, based on the amount of work he put in for the camp. It's just speculation on my part. We all know Rozier's perspective though. Danny doesn't seem like the type of guy to ever speak on this publicly.

Jacobs looking like a scumbag.

That's just one side of the story though. NO fighter is going to break the bank for an 8 week camp. That's just not happening, which is why you see situations like this recently with Jacobs & GGG.

GGG at least told homie what he would be getting and gave a chance, we don’t know all the details but if he just sent a different check that’s strange.

:francis: I'm not gonna defend that. TBF he doesn't exclude it but he should be all over a Porter fight especially now that Porter got the green light. It's not smart talking about "what makes sense" and being political. He should be fired up by the opportunity.
Wisen up Bud, a Porter fight makes all the sense in the world now, except if he can get Spence or Pac instead (very unlikely) or maybe Swift (also unlikely).

I get it...he wants the other title holders..Spence is out till Summer 2020 and Manny refuses to mention any potential opponents. Porter is a good name to fight..since everyone wants to compare it to.the Spence fight. He should of definitely not been wishy washy about it.

Yes, Porter would be his best opponent to date and probably the best available challenge. Not wanting Porter would only be affordable to him now if he could get someone of a similar level or better, not otherwise.
(Excluding Spence and Pac for now) Porter, Swift, maybe Thurman... he has to think in these kinds of opponents, not others...

As I see Danny Garcia is the first ranked WBO challenger now at 147 :leon: Thought the PBC doesn't care about the WBO...?
Maybe they will try to make that one happen instead/before Bud vs Porter.
I can only hope he gonna fight one of the PBC top names.
