I was watching Scholfield Jr (kid Austin is the third apparently) arguing on mill city boxing last night. Dude is slowly growing on me. He doesn't let anyone speak and be straight housing these interviewers. He made some good points for why his son should fight shakur now. Ppl hate on these boxing dads but it's no denying they create buzz for the sons. Brian Norman and Schofield done both juelzed their way into million dollar offers

You got a point breh
One thing I do like is that he's putting the pressure on Oscar De La Hoya to make the Shakur vs Schofield fight. I saw a video where the Oscar was telling the father to not take the fight because his son has a high probability of losing. And the father said "I see your concerns, but we want the fight ASAP!!"

Gotta respect it lol

Honestly, a lot of these fighters have been getting exposed over the last few years without even fighting. These guys do not want to fight the best opponents and they use promoters, managers and trainers as their mouthpiece to hide that fact.

Oscar was not wrong when he said it the other day and I remember a fighter saying that about the PBC guys and how Haymon gives them the option. They just choose path of least resistance.

Pathetic. And this is from someone who has been on the hype train for a while. 154 will pay more because Turki is involved..and the fighters are just better, including the guy(Crawford) you said you wanted to fight.

Literally any fight made at 154 does wonders for his legacy. Folks was getting on me for saying Brian Normal Sr and team had a point about Eddie and boots team but now look
