Brian Norman will go on to fight some weak mandatory for not that much money because their team doesn't want an Ennis fight yet. Norman has no profile and is completely unknown to casual fans.
Stanionis fought once since 2022 and the best PBC did for him was get him in a stay busy fight against Gabriel Maestre in 2024.
Who is Barrios' next opponent? Pacquiao rumored? Lol
Where was Ennis's career even going while with PBC?
Hearn actually keeps his fighters busy and seeks actual competitive fights. People clowned him for putting some of his top fighters up against Warren's and losing. The boxing politics is bullshyt. It's why I comment less on it over the past few years because we know what it is.
none of the current welterweight champions have any forward momentum
stanionis has no fight scheduled after removing ring rust against maestre and i like dude. that shyt will catch up to him
norman outside of santillan fight was almost cut by TR and was looking super mid. norman better not lose his belt in his first defense else the winky wright school of business will have a new name
barrios is so trash that he got trademarked up by chino's little bro who hasnt done shyt in a hot min
welterweight is as bad as 160...the only difference is at least a unification at 160 actually occurred there with no BS
for all the obsession of eddie talking an L in this scenario, he's off the hook for having to pay for a rematch and airing this...did we not forget that boots vs karen 1 took place on a PBC PPV? this shyt was the co main to tank vs a 130 pounder. no one said shyt about that cuz nikkas was excited to see boots...i wonder why and whats changed
..if you did in that fight thread and called it out for what it was then i can respect what you think about the rematch
the only one i feel sympathy for is boots and its not because of eddie or matchroom but its because the IBF has him by the balls (pause) and they are enforcing their mando rules whether we or boots or eddie likes it
