Aren't you a Tank fan who wants the best for his career? :heh:

How does staying with Mayweather and Ellerbe who are content milking him and not making him the biggest fights moves him more forward than being a free agent and taking the best offers for the biggest fights?
Does he not have the juice to make the move? Does he not want to fight Shakur, Teo, Garcia and Haney instead of Rivera,Valenzuela and Martin?

Haney put himself in a position where he could become undisputed cause he realized being exclusive with Hearn and DAZN won't cut it at 135, and it worked out for him even with having to take a 3 fight deal. That deal is done in a year or so, he didn't have to tie himself down long-term and he isn't in the same position as Tank who drives a bigger revenue.

Haney got Undisputed and aint even on P4P list and nobody is even talking about it.

Think about it.

Yall gotta realize we not in 1982 anymore brehs. Nobody gives a shyt about prestige. Avg person doesn't even know Mike Tyson was undisputed, they know that he was exciting.

Boxing isn't funded by the Govt, it's a for profit business. I know this breaks brehs hearts but it is what it is. Yes amongst us we can talk legacy and prestige but that shyt doesn't put asses in seats, and asses in seats is what keeps the lights on.

AJ lost to Ruiz and Usyk yet is still a bigger name than them, and Usyk is HOF bound.

118 Gary Russ is good if a little shaky. Got to keep 100 he isnt ready for Monster

Gary Russ I'm sure will fight again. He isnt going to leave on a loss like that

140 Gary Russ is the truth. He would beat both Tank and Ryan Garcia. I would put money on that

140 probably my favorite division right now it’s so deep with killers but, he definitely can do it. Let see how he looks against Rances end of the month.


G A Russel is one of my favorite fighters, has been for a while, he has one huge flaw though outside of the ring. No social media presence. He posts like 2 times a year and it’s usually something obscure and non boxing related.

He is talented and good enough to where Showtime will eventually start doing bits on him etc., yet he has to try as well.

In 2022 there’s no excuse to not post, especially if your goal is to be a star and make big coin like he has mentioned. Too much talent to purposely hide it from the world.
