    They are no longer the powerhouse that they were back in the day.

    I think that they are out of money and are depending on foreign money to put on their major fight (and failing to get the Saudi money at that). PBC is paying Pacquiao without foreign money.

    They screwed up the Fury/Joshua fight by not be real on the arbitration in addition to not being able to pay for that fight on their own.


    On a side note: TERENCE CRAWFORD MUST LEAVE TOP RANK IN OCT. what a waste of a career thus far....you know that he's mad right now!!!

    Have to give credit to Matchroom being the worlds number 1 promotion for boxing. I know they have a ton of shills but they are on top right now.

    Definitely Top Rank blew it. Could not deliver on two massive fights.

    Prediction: Crawford goes to Matchroom and everyone accuses him of ducking.

    That would be the smart move if he wants 50-50 against Spence. Going to PBC is bad from a money perspective. And my feeling is he does want 50-50 against Spence.
