Tbh, I mostly see this as Floyd seeing Ryan’s star potential and trying to sign him once he’s out of Oscar’s contract. Floyd doesn’t have anyone left he can market and Ryan is a safe bet.

I’m sure Floyd is a bit bitter that Haney is very successful without him and Al though. Floyd seems petty like that. But mostly, I think he wants Ryan to sign with him and Al. An eventual rematch with Tank would be huge, fights with Pitbull, Rolly and others would do real good numbers as well.


Ryan is at 140. Only fight that could be made is Romero. Cruz seems like the type to move up for the challenge and check.

In Davis's brain, he holds all the cards at 135 and 140 so if a fight gets made, the other fighter has to meet his demands.

Going to be really interesting to see how he moves now that he has a real belt.

He was marketed as a champion even with the regular and his lack of real belt didn’t block any potential fight. So I don’t think anything will change just because of this. The WBA just like the WBC doesn’t order mandatory challengers for big names unless the promoter’s/fighter’s interest align so I don’t expect them doing anything either.

But more than being a champion, he was pushed as The Face Of Boxing for the last 8 months. Now the Face Of Boxing is probably about to fight in a rematch against a fighter no one wants to see, while his peers (one of which he beat) are moving on to potentially bigger and better things.

I don't understand.

How does this happen after your biggest payday?
Doc this nikka is Can't Get Right for real..the chances he gets for being a fukk up....even in that losing effort he had prolly set himself up to get paid some more on those saudi cards...but i think the best place for him might be jail....he needs CTE counseling and someone needs to see if he got back on the super soldier cocktail again

Right but I don’t think it will be Cruz atp, Tank publicly shytted on that fight and it seems like everybody hates that fight.
They started to hype a Valenzuela fight but he got wrecked by Los Santos so that’s a tough sell too.
Frank Martin would be the only 135 opponent on the PBC side that would be interesting but they might think it’s too risky.
He’ll probably fight actual top guys when he goes independent instead of going by the PBC matchmaking plan, it is what it is… :beli: he doesn’t seem to be in a hurry to fight the good fights
