I was watching Sean Zittel's podcast and the guy that was on it said he worries that Boots could end up like another Demtrius Andrade. Where he just does bad business decisions and terrible career moves over and over again where he never challenges himself, creates "ducking" scenarios out of thin air, and gets belts the easiest path possible

Too many talented fighters at 154 for them to allow this to happen. If it does... :francis:

You haven't watched what I referenced i presume
I've seen Scooby fight on OTX, that's it, but you're not going to compare some local, American league boxing to an undisputed championship bout are you? Surely not?

The more Saudi Arabia take over this sport and interfere with things they have no business interfering with (and USA's economy for that matter), the worse the health of the sport will become.

you think OTX is the only place bonuses and incentives have taken place in boxing? :heh: ..youve only seen one fight on that card then so know you don't know how it works or how their cards played out with their KO bonuses, money rounds, overtime bonuses..on top of the 18x18 ring...otx has world ranked fighters on there just like probox..its not some smoker card in america :heh:

i fail to see how an extra cash incentive to prizefighters to perform to the best of their ability and make them fight is a bad thing :heh:...even moreso i understand why he's doing it....everyone im sure sat through that BS times square card and it was one of the cards ive ever seen with notable fighters on it..however the fighters can also choose to not fight for the incentives..they aren't bound to it :heh:..and incentives are not going to determine how saudi arabia takes over the sport nonsense you just spewed....that issue started when promoters couldn't get it together to make the fights needed and tv networks getting out of the boxing biz because of it

Boxing has been in a good place. Sorry I don't post as much as I used to ever since I became a full time father I don't really have much time for anything else.

Since when is knocking someone out the best of a boxers ability? Floyd get a career today?

No you don't see the bigger picture here. This is control and pushing the sport into the entertainment arena like WWF and UFC, that's the issue at hand. It's becoming a company sport very quickly, to its demise.

If you can't recognise that then we are going just go back and forth with you telling me OTX is top tier stuff.
