    Why There Was No Demand For Floyd-Timmeh

    Was this match overshadowed by the demand for Floyd-manny

    did we all know in our gut that there was no interesting clash of styles

    Everything Bradley was good at, Floyd was literally better at.

    Floyd beats Bradley up.

        He was too big of a risk for too little of a reward.
        Floyd just wanted easy fights man isn't it obvious

            Bradley didn’t have a big enough fan base to make it worth the risk.

                Once Bradley signed with Top Rank he lost any interest in a Floyd fight. He was content fighting whoever Top Rank gave him, which is why he sympathizes so much with Crawford

                  It's not our fault that Floyd fought the best guys past their prime. Floyd was in control of his career after Oscar.

                  It's easy to say you fought this name or that name but the truth is guys you want to prop Floyd up with, they already were past their best, had already been ko'd, beat down, by more than one fighter. That's a tough pill for a lot of you Floyd fanatics to swallow and you try to circumvent reality until it is comical.

                  Hatton, Corrales, Canelo to a lesser extent ok those are top guys that Floyd beat in their prime why is it so hard for you to accept these guys. I tell you why because those names don't sound good enough against Shane, Cotto, and Manny.

                    And what was so great about Tim exactly? His best win at WW was Marquez. Tim was a good JWW but average at best at WW.
