Sergio tried for quite some time to fight both Floyd and Manny and offered to drop as low as 150. Neither wanted anything to do with that matchup. Manny pretty much ignored the offer and when asked about it Floyd said Sergio was a great fight for Andre Direll.
As far as weight, the only one it would be a problem for would be Sergio as he's always offered both fights to be at 150 and he hasn't fought at 154 for quite some time. But, it was too dangerous a fight for either of them at the time. At this point, who knows, after so many injuries and years spent fighting bigger foes, it may have all begun to catch up with hI'm and he truly has become vulnerable to the point that his athleticism won't be enough to make up for his lack of technique.
