    "He offered me a million dollars to fight Josh Warrington for a unification match. And I felt like it was a little, it was beneath my standards.”

    "......beneath my standards" smh

    No wonder this guy has only been fighting once a year for the last 5/6 years.

    A bit of a waste really isn't Gary Russell

    A very winnable fight for 1 mill during a pandemic which would have given him an opportunity to win a legit world title

    I smell another Broner here soon minus the weird drawing power

    Sad. What a waste of talent. I hope when he retires one day, he can live with the consequences of the career decisions he and his people have made. Regret is a *****.

    If he said that, he's tripping! Before the pandemic. I use to see Russell at Dave & Busters for fight parties in Capital Heights Maryland. I made sure I would talk to him every time I saw him. I always made it my point to tell him he needs to fight twice a year. Clearly he didn't listen lol. At least he did listen about using social media to call out fighters. This I know for sure, because he told me he's not into using social media to call out people. Not his style. 2019 & 2020, he did exactly that!

    Is Russell just another hood rat missing a brain like Adrien Broner?
