Boxing “Bogeymen” are always interesting to me. Typically they’re from “Eastern Europe with a Great Amateur Record”. All come with the requisite Finger Pointing and Excuses as to why they can’t make a Big Fight. Janibek was well on his way to being the next one. That’s over, luckily. Then there’s the ones like Bud Crawford or Regis Prograis. There’s some truth to their Tale of Woe. But typically they still make a lot of money, all the while mismanaging their careers. Regis out here roasting Jose Ramirez. But yet he has no interest in a rematch with the only guy to beat him, Josh Taylor? Signs with Matchroom and avoids all of those big fights on the biggest U.S. platform, ESPN. Curious, to say the least. Oh well.
