It is a decent stay busy fight for Ryan, but I am not sure that he is serious enough to return to real boxing. His only goal is to make a lot of money as an influencer and that is why he is chasing the Jake Paul fight.

Maybe he just realized that there's more money into these special and exhibition matches. He's still young but he probably realized that this is way better to become richer for the next years to come.

Yes, Paul vs Tyson has set the another precedence in exhibitions fights and so for sure there are boxers or any athlete for that matter that are going to be interested in exhibition fights as there are a lot of money to be made.

Wherever the money goes, most people will go and I think that the hype for these matches have slowed down a few years ago but now they're back.

Once he's done with this match then he'd prolly talk with Jake to fight and get a hype of them.

Getting advertised and PPV with Netflix certainly gives them more money aside from the signing of contract and actual agreement.

It could be another hit for Jake Paul, but if we are talking about weight classes, Jake is HW, while Ryan is Jr. Welter/Welterweight. Unless they decided to go on a catchweight, Ryan going up in weight and then Jake Paul going down. Everything can be set up if we talk about huge money here, hehehe.

Everything is possible and they have to fill that gap just to meet at the mid and half way of it. If this is another potential huge fight money, they'd go for the ~~money~~ fight.

Ha! They can't just let Ryan go fade. The kid is just more than meets the eye they have to put him back to the ring. But this is certainly a cross fight, not so different from exhibition however its not hard to promote since the kid is very popular.

Yes, as much as we hate Ryan, there could be fans who doesn't like his personality, but then buy tickets to watch him, Lol. I guess that's the power of his social media and his antics outside of the ring. But him going on to make a comeback and it's a exhibition fights? Gonna be a disappointing for most of us as we are waiting for him to fight another great boxer at either 140 or 147 lbs.

Quote from: bittraffic on November 28, 2024, 01:17:47 PM

This is the trend now though. Fury vs Till is much like what Jake had started. Till is not as good as he thought, he been out in UFC for 2 years and of all opponents to choose is the real boxer. He has the slimmest chance to win.

But it's hard to follow that Jake started though, yeah, sure Darren Till has hype the fight with his trash talking of the Fury's, but it's not enough for fans though. But let's see, we already seen what exhibition fights can bring to us and the money that it can generate, so maybe this could be a interesting match up to watch.

Darren Till vs Tommy Fury,

The fight is on January 18, but here in the press conference, it looks like everything was blown out of proportion. But we all know that this is just a promotion to hype the fight. Specially after the Tyson vs Paul fight, they have set the tone of this kind of exhibition fights.

They need to hype and promote the fight to get it to sell and generate money and this what both of this personalities is doing.

The Tyson vs Paul fight has given the promoter and Netflix a lot of advantages, so it's no surprise that they did the same ahead of the fight between Darren and Fury later, I think the massive promotion is indeed an integral part of the exhibition fight, by creating new hype to grab the attention of the audience and ensure the fight is a commercial success later, So it's no different from Tyson and Paul who continue to launch psywars, of course Darren and Fury also use a strategy that seems aggressive to arouse public curiosity to watch the fight later.

^^ Well first thing that I noticed is that Darren is not intimidated by the Fury's.

He has the balls and give them a taste of their own medicine but talking shit about them, specially the career of John that's why he was fuming mad.

Second, this is really funny, “No one’s seen you since Usyk bladdered Tyson, where’ve you been ?” Lol.

So I guess this will be personal, and Tom should be ready here to take that head off of Darren. Another thing, Darren's accent though is funny, (no offense to everyone here!!).

And as early as today, there are reports that once Ryan get over that one year ban on his head, he will go back but it will be in a exhibition fights, hmmm. Sound familiar but who could be his opponents though? either of the Paul Brothers for a cool $20 million start?

But he is at welterweight, meaning just 147 lbs, but the Paul Brothers are huge guys, and fighting around super middle-weight.

I still like Ryan having a rematch which Devin Haney, that could really be entertaining and can generate huge money between them.

His next fight has already been announced. It will be against Manny Pacquiao’s former opponent Rukiya Anpo. The crazy thing is that the PPV price for this exhibition will be more expensive than the Usyk vs. Fury rematch.

It is a decent stay busy fight for Ryan, but I am not sure that he is serious enough to return to real boxing. His only goal is to make a lot of money as an influencer and that is why he is chasing the Jake Paul fight.

For the sake of money, this is a good fight for Ryan, a comeback fight and for sure he will have ring rust and so he just wanted to take it lightly and have this kind of exhibition match. I mean who wouldn't if he could earn $10 million at a minimum, for sure he will take it. But hopefully, he will still go back in pro as he has that potential to be a great champion if he will just focus on his career and not trying to be a influential Youtuber or became a social media personality. And good for Anpo as well, he had a chance against Manny, and now a young boxer in Ryan. That's why you can't really blame Inoue for not fighting in the US as he can make a big money boxing in Japan and he is their biggest superstar right now.

Usyk vs Fury

This big fight doesn't feel any closer and of course we can witness the real heavyweight king, quite curious about the results later whether Usyk will really defend the undisputed title that he previously managed to get by defeating Fury or Fury will win it back.
What is clear from various interviews and news shows Fury confidence to be able to win, this will be etched in history for truly dramatic heavyweight fight, what about you predictions whether Fury can win the title or he must experience another defeat from Usyk.

Yup, better to wait for his time, if he pushed things out he might lose and regrets things, he can continue enjoying his fame and dominance on his current division and jump up when the time he already got everything he needs especially his experience facing strong opponents, he needs those kind of fights before challenging either Nakatani or Inoue, just continue increase his worth that's the wise decision both career and money wise.

Interestingly, Rodriguez is ranked higher on The Ring and ESPN’s pound for pound lists than Nakatani. Inoue is already in his early thirties. The best time to make either of these fights would be in the next year or two, when they are still in their prime. Bam might be young but that doesn’t mean he isn’t ready to take the biggest challenges. Inoue might be considered the better fighter but I don’t think that fight would be a blowout. If he was competitive and the fight goes the distance, his stock would go up even in a loss.

That's a good opinion, though I do have a different view but yes why not if he and his camp is willing to take that step for his career, it's always an open opportunity that might happen if either Inoue or Nakatani accept that challenge, like what you said he might be young but it's true that the eagerness inside him can be fuel up when one of these two champs gives him that fight.

Though most of the handlers are not into this kind of risk as they value the money more than anything, if they see big risk they might not take that path and will just continue where they are getting decent opportunity.

Possibly it's because that Junto Nakatani, just like Inoue only fought in Japan and so he is not that expose to US boxing fans. So it's better for Nakatani to fight in the US, or if even Bam is going up in weight and challenge Nakatani, it should in the US of A and not in Japan.

So let's see how it goes for Bam next year, there are a lot of potential fights in the horizon for this kid. And I would say that he is for real and not overrated, unless he faces a Filipino who has nothing to lose and give him a close fight, Grin

. Usually this Filipino fighters are kinda like a spoiler of the party, derailing all the plans for that big fighter.

Nakatani is the best in the 118-pound division and now he has moved up to 122-pound with Inoue even though they are both under Bob Arum but I think it will be hard for Rodriguez to meet Inoue unless he can beat Nakatani and really take over the 118-pound division.
This is move up two weight classes and it is certainly too early to believe Rodriguez can go that far in short time, especially in just one year with his target of moving up to 122-pound in 2026 and challenging the undisputed champion Inoue.

Rodriguez should learn from Inoue because Inoue alone has become the undisputed champion and wants to move up division but prefers to stay and completely destroy everyone in his division, I would say that it could be disaster for Rodriguez if he just follows his ambition without any preparation and consideration because the 118-pound and 122-pound division are the monster class.
But it only natural because the ambition for every fighter is to beat other fighters who already have big names and have won many title, this will be an honor and pride but it is not an easy matter to be able to carry out all these ambitions smoothly.
Rodriguez is still really not worthy of all that.

^^ This news has been in months now, and obviously as you have said, Munguia is no longer with Golden Boy so I guess this has to be scrapped by Oscar himself as this is the fight that fans are likely going to watch. Shakur is injured if I'm not mistaken. Duarte vs Haney doesn't make sense, but perhaps Oscar doesn't have any options at 140 lbs for now.

It could be good though if we will have another 5x5 just like what we've seen in Saudi between Matchroom and Queensberry. But it sould be like pretty much stack up fight not like what Oscar wanted to set up here.

Anyone heard about the rumor of 5x5 tournament between Dela Hoya's GBP and Eddie Hearn's Match Room?

Vergil Ortiz vs Boots Ennis
Munguia vs Pacheco
Zepeda vs Shakur
Duarte vs Haney
Barbosa vs Ramirez winner facing Jack Catterall

Although if I'm not mistaken, Jaime Munguia has moved to Top Rank already.

And aside from that if he manage to win against Nakatani the hype for his name will clearly bring the attention not only with Inoue's camp but more on the fans as they will see that kind of fight where both hot and sensational fighters will meet inside the ring and showcase what they've got, though too early for that as there are things that needed to accomplished first before pushing for it, one at the time and continue to improve he got that decent chance if he'll continue to work hard.

There are a lot of great fights for him at 115 lbs. But in the case of Rodriguez, make sense to move up because of the big names like Junto Nakatani at bantamweight. Bam is very young that's why he like this kind of mega fights.

I believed that he can carry his power at 118 lbs, as his power is really natural, just like what Inoue had. And the difference in weight is not that big though, it's just 3 lbs so still perfect for a boxer that his young. And obviously, the bigger the weight, the bigger the paycheck for Rodriguez, so very hard to convince him to stay at the current weight for at least a year. If he moves then good for us boxing fans.
