QOTD for boxing heads If u could predict which fighter would jump ship from the PBC establishment of his own volition who would it be?

it all depends if they know their worth..to me broner is one of the few fighters inthat stable that does but he lacks discipline which until he gets that will leave him vulnerable to his own whims

I agree about Broner. He's his own worst enemy. In the case of Thurman, I don't know. Just something about him. I think he would cultivate a bigger fan base just on the fact that he did something on his own. Looking at how they pay the other dudes in that line up it's clear he's not their priority and I foresee him getting sick of it. He is the most vocal in criticizing his establishment.

I agree, or they continue getting bullshyt fights. If I could predict right now, I'd say either Keith Thurman or Deontay Wilder. I'd lean more toward Thurman though.

I think Thurman is staying. If Broner or Garcia loses, while he remains undefeated, he immediately takes their "spot" in the pecking order and becomes a main focus for Al Haymon.


I agree with Wilder though. Especially being that he isnt getting the marketing that he should to be the undefeated WBC Heavyweight Champion, Bronze Medalist at the Olympics, plus has a 97% KO ratio...and he has charisma and a good back story that's relatable for alot of people

i can see keith doing it on his own but dude needs more career momentum and bigger wins because he hasn't crossed over like broner

truth be told..i dont really see anyone else wanting to forge their own path outside of those 2..mostly because of the "money" aspect of signing to al...i mean you got fighters like LSC and Swift who are puppets that al has on a string and they are starting to show to what i call "the berto effect" of being babied/micro managed....losing hunger and losing discipline..imagine a whole stable of fighters with the berto effect? that terrifies me and thats what i see so far with PBC

Great pressure fighter, very good at cutting off the ring, his stamina was always on 100, elite volume puncher/swarmer, good chin (people always talk about the Mosley fight...look how many clean hard punches it TOOK Mosley to get Margs finally to that point), good at fighting on the inside, long arms, tall and rangy, heart of a Warrior and could take an exorbitant amount of punishment....what do you mean breh?



He wasnt the most "skilled" Boxer like a Floyd/Loma/Rigo/Ward, but as far as what HE did...he was one of the best of this era at it.

The heartbreak kid Vasyl Lomachenko already up there with those names

Loma has elite skill.


I wish I had room for him on my stanwagon, but I used that 3rd spot for Erickson Lubin

Thurman headlined the first ever PBC on NBC over AB

Thurman is headlining the first ever PBC on ESPN

I think One Time is being treated just fine for someone whos best W is vs Ghost (which he jus got)
