I mean there's only so much punishment an overrated defenseless B minus fighter can take in one year. :mjlol:

Don't just go around insulting B- fighters my friend. They usually have a fukkin jab at least, Ghost just has that flimsy selfie stick he calls a jab, which is wack--and everything else, which is wack as fukk

Like whom? No of us would've expected Mr. "I gotta 0, and I aint afraid to let it go" to turn down opponents....due to money:heh:


I don't know of any other significant PBC fights that haven't been made due to money, except the fact that every PBC fighter ranked ahead is scared of J Rock at Junior Middleweight. We haven't ran into this issue yet.






He running from that work....Run Time:smugbiden:

Thurman is human just like everyone else. I wouldn't put it past him to hold out on fights for more money.

Probably every boxer in the history of the sport has done that at least once. :manny:

True but done talk shyt you'll take on all comers. That's bullshyt.

Thats the issue

I would like more details of the story tho...cuz Ken Porter had said they would only fight One Time if the money was correct

This could be a situation like Bradley Rios...Both won't budge on their purse but since Keith is a higher pay grade it looks as if he is the one ducking

One Time being quiet this whole time N Porters being vocal makes Thurman look bad N he's taking that L in public perception

Now when me and @patscorpio used to complain about Haymon over paying nikkas (especially against bums), cats said I was a cac or hated seeing brothers get paid and blah blah blah etc...

*Fast forwards into the future several months later*

That same practice is holding up significant fights from being made. :sas2:

yes i do recall me saying something about this...i mentioned this ruins the development of young fighters and creates entitlement..and used andre berto as the best example as he is the prototype of this "practice"..its rearing its ugly head publicly now because of 147 is a hot division and PBC has a good number of those notable fighters that should be fighting each other now.

It's prolly for the best that Swift doesn't fight Ghost at the end of the year.

I mean there's only so much punishment an overrated defenseless B minus fighter can take in one year. :mjlol:

yes this is why danny facing ghost doesnt appeal to me..if ghost can't even beat aron martinez without a gift why would i want to see something like that?..fukkery aside ghost's prime has been sent to the bushes and hes going to have to show that he can actually beat a jobber without getting knocked around for me to think otherwise

But, Raging Babe is saying that Porter already agreed to all terms and the fight was set to go on his end....that Thurman is the reason it isn't happening.


I don't see how we could blame the Porters, when they are already agreed to the terms:manny:


Maybe Thurman is pulling a James Kirkland:manny:

I heard out of Ken mouth that they really want this fight. He's been on Tha boxing voice numerous times. They ask him about it since people first heard about it. They said they were ready.

They both going to get paid. They've been getting paid for big money for bullshyt fights. shyt Porter actually fought tougher fights for damn near less money. I'm sorry his win over Alexander and Broner should get him most of this pot.

One Time better come correct with his excuse... The ghost of Ben Getty better have woke his ass up in the middle of the night N told him fight Aaron Martinez in San Antonio

Hes goin take aa public perception hit if he pulled a Kirkland...Only acceptable reason for Thurman to back out is a fight with Khan or Swift N we jus found out its not Swift

Went from fights done to 75% done to Thurman not onboard

PBC need to get they shyt together N stop announcing fights 3 weeks before they are scheduled
