    Boxing is a hard sport sometimes, especially for those fighters who are considered high risk low reward. I made a list of my top 6 avoided fighters for 2024. My number 1 may come as a surprise but when you think about where he is and that he is still avoided it makes sense. Did I miss someone more deserving?

    I don't Devin Haney is avoided. Fighting him, win or lose, brings a lot of money.

    While I don't agree with everything you said, you did a good job with the video. Congratulations.

    Pretty sad isn't it considering Zhang is 40 years of age. That's why I hold Joyce in such high regard he stepped up when other fighters wouldn't.

    Tank, Shakur and Ryan have all turned down offers recently. Although now it looks likely the Ryan fight will happen next.

    A year or 2 ago I would have agreed but now he (#2) has beaten the ring #4, is fighting the #3 and Bivol wants to fight the winner.

    All good shouts. Although I think Hrgovic will likely be fighting AJ next for the vacant title. Also think Canelo will fight Benavidez even if he is playing it up!
