If your dumb enough to hand over your money, someone will take it :lol:
Its probably a better one than the original, but still fairly low risk, and still not PPV.
What original?

“I spoke with Devin Haney, and I said, ‘Are you happy to put your name in the mix?’ And he said, ‘Yeah,’ because at the moment ‘No-Go Diaz’ has not signed his contract after being offered more to fight Devin Haney than he was getting to fight Ryan Garcia,” said Hearn to Boxing Social on Joseph Diaz Jr. lagging in inking the contract to challenge Haney for his WBC title.

“So we’ll have to see what happens,” said Hearn. “We want to make the Jojo Diaz fight, but he has to hurry up and sign the contract.”

There must be a reason why Rolly was "removed" to fight Tank. I think Rolly would trouble Tank big time. I'd like to see this fight being made. :box:

No charges for Rolando Romero after investigation into sexual assault accusations

The investigation surrounding sexual assault accusations against lightweight boxer Rolando Romero is now closed without charges being filed, the Henderson (Nevada) Police Department told ESPN on Tuesday.

Romero, 26, was scheduled to fight Gervonta Davis on Dec. 5 in Los Angeles, but he was pulled from the bout in late October after accusations made via Twitter by a woman led to an open investigation.

After "false accusations, having to miss out on opportunities, cheated out of my dream, and out of a massive amount of wealth, the investigation into the allegations made against me has been formally closed," Romero said in an Instagram post Monday.

"Charges were not filed because the allegations could not be substantiated because, as I always stated, I am innocent."

Romero (14-0, 12 KOs) could now be in line for a shot at "Tank" Davis later this year. The awkward power-puncher is coming off a seventh-round TKO of Anthony Yigit in July. The fighter born in Las Vegas was slated to earn seven figures for the PPV bout with Davis, a career-high payday.

Romero was replaced by Isaac Cruz, who gave Davis a tougher-than-expected fight in a decision loss.

She’s cost him a lot of money.

We get a lot of these. Should the woman not be held accountable? Hearing a lot of comments.

You know, I know that this kid is a loudmouth and probably resembles his act in real life with the ladies. But this kid was Me Too’d out of a huge fight that could have led to stardom when people began the buzz about him. I liked his comments and he’s a smart kid. It’s a damn shame that he’s had to have his dreams busted apart by an accusation that wasn’t deemed unlawful. That’s BS. I hope that this kid gets his chance once again bc there’s no reason why he shouldn’t. BS!

Arum: Crawford’s Lawsuit Is Frivolous; Court Will See Case As Malicious Extortion Attempt It Is

“Bud Crawford’s lawsuit against Top Rank is frivolous,” said Arum, a Harvard-educated attorney who began promoting boxing in 1966. “His vile accusations of racism are reckless and indefensible. He knows it, and his lawyer knows it. I have spent my entire working life as a champion of Black boxers, Latino boxers and other boxers of color. I have no doubt the Court will see Crawford’s case for the malicious extortion attempt that it is.”

WBA are whores for some of Tank's ppv %
Mandatory for a cheesy second tier non championship belt, when Kambosos would happily out box Tank for 12 excruciating rounds if he wants a go at the real belt.

If tank is going to fight Willy they need to get rolly a big step up in between.

Rolly vs Cruz? If rolly beat Cruz well then the rolly tank fight would have some credibility. If he loses he dosent deserve a shot.

The road map needs Rolly to keep his "0" to make it seem like a proper challenge to casuals, so they won't be risking that before they feed him to Davis.

Rolly Romero...

Davis might be the biggest superstar who's done almost nothing I've ever seen in Boxing. It's going on 10 years now, and this guy has ducked EVERYBODY!!!!

And somehow has fans. I don't get it. He's everything that's wrong with Boxing. A gutless punk who'd rather punch his girlfriend than a dangerous opponent.
