What's Breazeale ever done to be considered as any good? He got a gift against Fred Kassi of all people, stood there and took punishment from AJ for 7 rounds, got destroyed by Wilder, beat a very overrated prospect Izu Ugonoh who then lost to Lukasz Rozanski and retired, and has got to be the slowest HW in the world out of guys considered contenders, including Joe Joyce. He has poor defence and his punches are extremely slow and telegraphed. Never seen what the big fuss is about the guy.

So markk. Who is Breazeale allowed to fight then? He's already fought and lost to AJ and Wilder for the titles. He's not even in the top 15 in any of the alphabets. What's Haymon's game plan for him. Like Parker, I'd think he'd want a meaningful fight. Except Parker is in much better shape because he's ranked WBO #2 and Breazeale is not ranked anywhere. The Kownacki fight woulda helped him, but that's gone out the window. I'd think either Parker, or Fa, both of who are in the top 10, would help Breazeale get back in the mix.

Haymon doesn't seem to let his guys fight unless there is big upside to him. If you look at wilders last 10 fights they are all against PBC fighters except any mandatories and the fury fight. I suspect the fury fight was made as they thought he was over. wasn't the case and ended up being a very risky fight. Breazeale is a fight we would like soon. parker cant have as he is with Eddie. A bit like whyte won't fight andy R as different promoters. I can see Andy fighting wilder soon as a money/interest fight in the usa. If Andy is going to lose again it will be to someone in the same house.
Breazeale will be used as a premium journeyman i suspect. maybe for Efe to leap frog up.

Thanks markk. Too kind. Makes me wonder why Breazeale couldn't make the Kownacki fight happen, as they are both from the same stable. Speaking of stable, looks like Haymon has the whole brothel at his disposal. So the premise is that Haymon guys fight Haymon guys? I can see how that eliminates another promoter, but it also eliminators someone on the upswing in his stable, as one of them has to lose.
Guess the great equalizer is if the alphabets force certain fighters to fight each other for their rankings in order to keep their rankings, which is what I want.
