But Mikey left PBC because Hearn offered him $7m guaranteed to fight Jessie Vargas. They didn’t freeze him out, he left on his own. Lol

Also Crawford would love to have a Mikey scalp on his resume. He sounds mad cause he didn't get the opportunity to take the 0.

Crawford may be on to something though.

Al may have manufactured that whole beef between Top Rank and Mikey to lure him to PBC. Once he was on the PBC platform, Al told Spence to take it easy on Ocampo. By doing this, he was able to get Mikey to aggressively pursue him for a fight. Although it was a short fight, Mikey saw "something." Therefore, Mikey believed he was the one making the fight. In reality, PBC was able to use predicitve analytics to anticipate Mikey's behaviors and reactions to certain situations. This is what they wanted all along. As a result, PBC put together Spence vs Garcia as a platform to build Spence to another level. After they were done with Mikey, they had no use for him. They flushed him in the toilet like a used condom. The fact that Mikey was able to get 7m from Eddie is irrelevant. He had already served his purpose.

I never thought about this angle, but when I think about it, Crawford very well may be right.

How the hell do people rate Pitbull Cruz now like he a top dawg :dahell: …Just because overrated ass Tank lost a couple rounds to him they act like he really like that. He a short midget with mid power that got a decent work rate. He would have been another KO victim of Tank didn’t break his hand.

Maybe Crawford is on to something. Maybe he took the redpill and unplugged himself from the matrix and we're living in the simulation? :ohhh:

How the hell is Mell Charlo not in the top 5-10 for his good W's & becoming undisputed. That's just insane to me
He lost once and drew one, both avenged but I guess that weighs it down plus he was never the "jumps out of you" kind of talent like Usyk, Canelo, Inoue, Bud and Spence are. The lack of big names in his division and some of the other fighters achieving big things in multiple divisions makes Charlo fall behind them too.

I think it's plain disrespectful to leave him off the list. He emphatically avenged those blemishes on his record immediately
