Fight Quintana, fight Berto, fight Abregu, fight Brook, fight Collazo, hell even Steve Forbes.......point is, come back after a 2 yr layoff, do a "tune-up" fight to get your **** back, take a 80/20 cut from whatever purse the fight would've been, and wait for the Elite's to sort each other out then step in and make your money again.....
But coming back to fight Marquez, making a reported $15mili while giving Marquez $3-5mili, making him come up to WW, and Floyd being the "stronger, faster, younger etc.." just doesn't do it for me as a fan. Don't get me wrong...I will be watching on Sept. 19th....but at a buddy's expense...
Discuss?

Unless its sarcasm.......then we're good.

What happened?
Floyd doesn't need to worry about what they bring to the table in terms of sales because hes a "megastar" and "cash cow" and we all know when you're those,
you can carry a fight by your name alone.

He'd have a hard time selling tickets even if he fought a 147 pounder...especially when you factor in the layoff
Floyd can sell tickets...but he aint no DLH
Fighting Marquez was most likely a shot at Pac and he could say he beat the #2 guy on the P4P list...

Nothing.
Floyd regarding Shane, "I don't fight sparring partners".
Regarding Cotto, "he needs to get his PPVs up"
Keep trying and I'll keep shutting you down.
lol "everyone demanding the DLH fight",
who demanded that?
