One think I give Top Rank and Bob Arum is that they know how to build up young talent to keep progressing. Al Haymon keep matching these dudes soft as heel, look how he did Gary Russell, Broner, Garcia and now Thurman. Thurman is taking a step back with his last few opponentsI hope they don't do that shit with Errol spence.
Look how top rank built Crawford up, matched him up step by step with better opposition and let him headline events in his hometown to build his name up.
Outside of Walters and Lomachenko, who they hell is there to test Russell @ 126? Smaller guys coming up like Gonzalez (who he beat), Mares and Santa Cruz or shopworn guys like Mijares, Montiel and Hasegawa?
With the exception of the Herrera (I thought he lost) and Peterson (I thought he won by the narrowest of margins) fights, Garcia already beat the guy who everyone thought would send him to the cemetary in Matthysse.
Crawford forced Arum's hand in those fights. Arum said no to every fight Crawford wanted and fought prior to Gamboa. They say so right in the telecast.
You can put Broner in there with anybody because people pay to see Broner lose. He could fight a bucket full of tomatoes and people would pay in the hope that that one of the tomatoes would hit him in the face and take him out.
Nobody really wants to fight Thurman except for Spence. I mean, do you actually pay attention when they are broadcasting these fights when they tell you how many guys drop out of fights with him before he actually gets the guy in front of him?
I think Collazo is going to do better than expected. I just wish he didn't get rid of Nirmal Lorick who is a good trainer a lot of people don't know about.
In your own opinion who wins (if they were to fight) between Keith Thurman & Errol spence Jr.
Man I can never get tired of that interview
yeah that was the death of pretty boy floyd and the birth of money mayweather
I respect Keith Thurman - the problem is that you have real fights that could be made and none of them are fighting each other. I think Al Haymon is about to do a straight Super Six for welter once floyd is gone. Dude got do his own belt "the PBC belt" and have Porter, Garcia, Thurman, Khan, etc.. fighting for that shit.
Boxing on ESPN now
B-Hop calls out GGG at 175:
Thank GOD PBC got Teddy Atlas to do boxing on ESPN.
You can, and he is.
Did he drop that nigga before the commercial?? 
Did he drop that nigga before the commercial??
nah. looked like he slipped
Yeah, just caught the replay.
good fight. somebody gonna get caught
Bruh fell like a tree
Damn. They gonna have to put dude on a suicide watch.
Nigga you ain't getting Floyd.
Thurman hurt his hand?!?!?
Funny how everyone making a play for a Mayweather fight has had some bad luck or didn't fight well.

BHop sounding like a bitch! So, you want to call a Dude to come up 15 lbs to fight you, instead of even offering a catch weight at 168? Da Fuck you calling out Middleweights for... why don't you chase a rematch with the motherfucker that just slapped you around like a bitch?
BHop is about to start embarrassing himself now, maybe his old ass should just hang it up! I hear that Terrance Crawford also got a call
Damn One Time!!! Dude got Collazo looking like George Foreman out this bitch! Thurman looked awkward as fuck hauling didn't he!!
Thurm looked like shit. Hes lucky that headbutt made it a short nite.
All these people that made the challenge to Floyd looked like shit.
look at spences response to the fight
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">I'll merk that boy</p>— Errol Spence (@ErrolSpenceJr) <a href="https://twitter.com/ErrolSpenceJr/status/620060024140791808">July 12, 2015</a></blockquote>

LOl, why do they get mad at the referee for stopping the fight when they look half dead at the count?
They don't know that they are hurt or hurt that bad.
When Shane Mosley fought Forrest the first time, he said he didn't know that he was knocked down more than once and didn't remember any rounds until the twelfth.
Somebody tell B-Hop it's over....time to go away.
Floyd would boxing rings around Thurman.
Prolly do it to Spence too but that don't mean Thurman can't bring it same goes for spenceFloyd would boxing rings around Thurman.
