    Has to be this guy with the initials TBA, he fights anyone at any weight, sometimes on the same night on all box nation schedules.


    He is a warrior, a true champ and someone who the likes of pac man and floyd could learn alot of!

    TBA keeps getting jobbed out of the big fights. I tune in, expecting some TBA action and what do I see but Jorge Barrenderas or Jerzy Zamiataczki taking his place.

    He's protecting him too much just trying to pad his record out

    Pretty sure the guy has a good rating from the WBO and has never been stopped.

    TBA is defined as a fighter who has adequate boxing skill, but does not have the caliber of a contender or gatekeeper. Outside of boxing,TBA is a trader or crafter who has completed an apprenticeship, but is not at the level of a master craftsman. Hence, when applied to boxing, TBA is a fighter who is no longer a novice, and has the sufficient degree of boxing skill that may be expected from a better professional, but who does not have the mastery possessed by the contenders.
    TBA and his stable mates will often serve as opponents for young up and coming prospects and will often step in at late notice should a fight fall through. TBA is said to have little or no expectation of winning fights against contenders or gatekeepers, but this does not preclude him from having a winning record against less-skilled fighters.

    TBA has floated "from promoter to promoter, or manager to manager, hoping to get placed as an opponent in fights" by promoters, and making very little money. He will "fight all the time, anywhere, in order to make enough money to get by". It had been reported that TBA regards himself as existing in the sport solely as "a body for better men to beat on"
