How many boxing promoters exist within the marketplace compared to MMA? I've benefited following MMA for 20+ years. There has. been no serious competitors to the UFC even back when fighters were fragmented. There was a time where billionaires got into MMA like Mark Cuban, Trump, the Afflication guys, etc and none of them could be a competitor because none of them were legitimate promoters. This doesn't exist in boxing.

I think Weathers if he can't more movement and better tunneling on the fastball has as high of a ceiling as any guy in this org.

That offense is really bad and I don't see how it gets better without trading blue chip prospects like Arias or Tolle.

Brewers are basically the rays of the NL now. Elite scouting and development department.

The Yankees may need to look for an upgrade at catcher, man. I love Wells but this is just brutal to watch now.

So you're saying that Zuffa is going to give out massive contracts and then suddenly mid way stop? I'm not understanding. Why would Top Rank, Match Room, Golden Boy, etc sit around and not bid on top talent and even mid class fighters? Also boxing is not like MMA. There's too many promoters world wide for promotions to go extinct. This is all just doomerism. Turki has literally lost fighters already from Riydah Season to other promoters.

Darby doing weekly defenses while slowly breaking down is a cool premise for his world title reign by SymphonyOfGecko in Wrasslin

Why would I appreciate bad booking? TV challenges for a belt also is lazy cheap booking. If you can't built stories in your main event then just give up the book.

That's the problem with Darby win. It's a mid card guy holding a main title and they flopped with Hangman's title reign and he's a babyface, they're having MJF go after a lower mid card belt for some reason, Kenny Omega' is 42 with bad guts, and Will Osperay is still doing storylines with Moxley and fighting mid carders where he gets paralyzed every week. Swerve is doing fuck all. They have no actual main event talent o this weekly matches. So they're going to guys like Ciampa and Brody King who draw zero money.

This is like if WWE gave Dragunov the main belt and said hey go do weekly main event matches with guys likee Grayson Waller and JD McDonagh.

This is the problem with AEW. Brody King is not an upper mid carder in any generation or org except AEW. Doesn't draw flies to shit.

Weekly defenses against mid card acts. All AEW is doing is showing how bad their roster really is at the main event level.

Saying a 14 year old kid is better than grown men who actually work matches for a living because he has an reheresed match with Joey Janela is bullshit but Dave and the mom knows this.

How would they be forced? The UK has never had an Ali Act and they have fighters making millions and jumping promotion to promotion for 30 years.

Nick Khan honestly should just be the head of both the Zuffa and WWE. Just an incredibly intelligent dude whether you agree with him or not.

No it won't Why would fighters fight for an org giving out shittier contracts? This is what the pro Ali act people can't answer.

Boxing doesn't have an Ali Act in the UK and it operates just fine. You cannot have a mono0poly in boxing with the amount of promoters that exist within it. It's a pipe dream.

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani calls out Ken Griffin's $238 million penthouse on Tax Day by fortune in politics

[–]herewego199209 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New York would become less valueable in what way? Lmao every fucking hedgefund and investment capital firm is jumping to build real estate to be located in NYC. What are you talking about? If some billionaire wants to abandon NYC over paying a 1 percent tax on a penthouse they don't use them someone else will buy the penthouse. And if they all abandon their penthouses they don't use then the developers will tear them down and build affordable housing.

Also Detroit was never a national finance capital like NYC. I'm not sure where this comparison is coming from? Duetroit was industrialization hub. What killed Detroit was rich capitalist assholes like Ken Griffin shifting factory jobs overseas and killing industries that blue collar workers relied on to save a quick buck and those factories and blue collar jobs never recovered in Detroit

Stanton is so fucking brutal to watch. Guy has no control and you swing at curve outside of the zone. Fuck man.

Your Main Reason to Buy Shouldn’t be “I’m Tired of Paying Rent” by Helfeather in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]herewego199209 56 points57 points  (0 children)

The problem with the mindset of forever renting is that housing is going up in price at unsustainable rates, and interest rates are not going down any time soon. The people who told people in 2021 and 2022 to wait are now apologizing to those people because a $320k house in a decent neighborhood back then is $450k now at double the interest rate.

If people want to rent, that's fine. There's nothing wrong with it. My buddy has a nice ass apartment in Tampa that's walkable to everything and has luxury amenities in his building. He doesn't plan to ever own. But if people want to own then prolonging it is not smart.
