think he took a dive or he crazy?

I just think he's trying to flex.....but he don't really have more money than some people who post on thecoli.com on a daily basis:heh:



What's so interesting about that picture I don't get it?
Yeah he stunts with money... so? plenty of people do that online.
He is a prize fighter he probably has this much money I don't see what's the extra here.


The problem is, he's flexing with $12,000 up to his ear....and his last purse was only a total of $35k. After taxes, splits to his team, & manager, he might just he holding his entire net in his hand trying to flex.


Thing with that though, #PradaPat (aka @patscorpio ) could've posted a pic like that just a couple months ago....you cant really flex on people with money that WE'VE touched before. I mean, I guess you can, but it's a real light flex.


If you gonna flex with money...

....then flex with REAL money.





Moral of the story, usually when you flexing your bread.........you flexing more money than the 9-5 man can get too breh:manny:





Williams is a 35k fighter....him posting a pic holding 12k up to his ear isn't really flexing like that imo. It's the equivalent of getting your entire yearly salary at once, and then taking a picture holding it before spending it:yeshrug:

Flexing in general is dumb imo but many famous people seem to like it nowadays.

You think Marcus Browne is worth investing "take a dive" type money into? :skip:

Maybe he has a side hustle like most journeymen/fringe contenders :manny:

Or maybe boxing was the side hustle.

Dan Rafael chat wrap 3/3:

- Matthysse's best days are behind him, but that doesn't mean he can't be an exciting fighter and have some meaningful fights.
- Taylor will give Matthysse hell if he comes in rusty.
- Doesn't understand the hate for Wilder. By today's HW standards his resume is decent, he is powerful and exciting as a fighter, and has a great personality. His resume is superior to Joshua and Parker, who also have belts.
- Stiverne being Wilder's mandatory is a joke. Even worse if it gets in the way of Wilder vs. Parker.
- Was wondering if Wilder's hand wasn't 100% because he didn't use it that much. Wilder said it was okay. He looked sloppy, but got the job done.
- Thoughts on the Wilder vs. Breazeale scuffle? Wildly overblown.
- Buy or sell: Wilder is the hardest puncher in boxing? Buy.
- Gervonta Davis' next fight may be in the US (not necessarily in the UK). Davis' side has a better chance to win a purse bid and Mayweather would likely put it in Baltimore.
- HBO and Showtime are discussing possibly doing a dual telecast for Joshua-Klitschko.
- Haye vs. Bellew? Haye by KO in the first half of the fight.
- Canelo wasn't a top 10 PFP fighter when he fought Mayweather. He more universally was considered top 10 PFP after beating Lara and/or Cotto.
- Picking Lubin by KO and Thurman by late KO or decision.
- Thurman and Garcia are doing USADA testing for their fight.
- Over/under 5 million viewers for Thurman-Garcia? Under.
- No rematch clause.
- Weights from Brooklyn: Keith Thurman 146.25, Danny Garcia 146.5, Jorge Cota 153.75, Erickson Lubin 153.75.
- Bute is done from being in meaningful fights.
- Pascal vs. Bute 2 would make sense. Both guys are past their prime, but have enough local interest to sell that fight.
- If you are a contender and have to fight any of these in their primes, who do you fight: Duran, Leonard, Hearns, and Mayweather? Fight Mayweather, it would be for the most money.
- Will the winner of Thurman vs. Garcia and Brook vs. Spence fight this year? Doubtful.
- Ortiz vs. Miller talks for the spring have really cooled off.
- Bradley wants to come back for the right fight, he is in no rush.
- No idea why Anthony Peterson is wasting his time.
- Top Rank is doing the April 22 PPV card because it has no choice. They need to keep their fighters active and HBO won't buy those fights. The card will cost TR seven figures and likely won't generate a profit and if it does, it will be very small.
- Doesn't think HBO can afford a Oscar Valdez fight unless it is vs. a truly top guy.
- HBO is having money issues stemming from Time Warner's merger. Time Warner is looking to preserve their bottom line and HBO Sports have had their budget cut. They should however work a little harder to make what they do have better.
- Breazeale vs. Ugonoh was one of the best HW fights he has seen in person in years. Huge heart from both fighters.
- It looked like Breazeale may not have trained supremely hard for the fight.
- Briedis vs. Huck? Not sure how much Huck has left and Briedis is fresher with huge power.
- Shakur Stevensons second fight will likely be on HBO on the Crawford undercard May 20, likely in Newark, NJ.
- Crawford vs. Diaz will hopefully be made soon.
- Most talented (not the best) fighter he has ever seeen? Mayweather and RJJ.
- Evander Holyfield, underrated? Properly rated.
- Was surprised Holyfield beat Tyson twice.
- Had Harrison vs. Hurd scored somewhat close before the KO.
- GGG vs. Winky Wright? Winky had one of the best chins ever. GGG would win a decision 12.
- Easter vs. Mikey Garcia? Why not. Good fight, no political issues, and Showtime would get behind it.
- Believes that more tickets will be released for Canelo vs. JCC.
- Lubin a future PFP'er by 2018? Probably not that soon, but he has a chance.
- Ward vs. Kovalev 2 negotiations are going slow.
- Porter vs. Berto is supposed to be announced tomorrow to take place April 22 at Barclays.

:camby: that Top Rank PPV card on April 22nd


this shyt is free


I do not understand why they won't put a Shawn Porter fight down at the Q:mindblown:


Tickets would definitely sell and the atmosphere would be nice....specially since Showtime is a Cavs stan from outside Akron , while King plays here and is from Akron as well:manny:


It would be a good turnout. I was just up at the shop talking to about this fight yesterday and nikkas was talking about watching it:ehh:


Hell, they could even have it at JAR arena in Downtown Akron...Kenny Porter is fukking up:snoop:

:snoop::what: at having an Ohio and Florida nikka fight anywhere but Ohio or Florida.

Got fukking damn, does every meaningful fight have to be at Barclays, Vegas, or Cali. :mindblown:

One thing prime Roy doesn't get enough credit for doing., is fighting all over the country. Dude was the top dog in boxing and fought all over the place. nikkas need to bring that back.
