    Remember this is post Bivol, where he looked weak.
    He looked weak in the third fight against Golovkin too. I didn’t watch the Ryder fight but I was shocked it went the distance.

    you’re likely right. I see the 3 fights as Mel, Mal and Spence at 164. They floated that for some reason and I think Spence is on his way out since the accident.

    Canelo has no interest in the Davids

          How could he turn down by far the biggest money fight possible

Haymon is just presenting his fighter with the best financial opportunity he can. As for Canelo, he doing something Floyd never did and is giving a brotha a payday while being put in a lose/lose situation. Canelo will never get the props Floyd got from beating JMM.

            Besides, people forget, LW Shane went up to WW and beat De La Hoya. A smaller fighter usually has the speed advantage, add the height, Mell could pull it off.

            The Shane Mosley point is fair

              Jermall turned down the fight twice..... And Jermell is not a small dude. He actually should have moved up a long time ago. All 3 of Derrick James fighters have been eating in divisions they shouldn't be in....both Charlos and Spence.

                Cherry pick to the max. This fight is garbage all the way around but the casuals are going to eat it up specially when they play the undisputed card to sell this garbage

I recall them saying a long time ago that they would never fight each other, hence they fight in different weight classes. Jermell likely easily walks around at the same weight as Jermall.
                  Walking around and having experience fighting at certain weight are 2 different things completely.

                    Imagine, he's ducking a few guys in his weight class, so he goes up to hopefully get an easy win on bivol. That totally backfires. So now, since he's still ducking the same guys, he looks for comp in lower weight classes.

                    You can't make this stuff up.

                      Absolutely. With that being said I'm still going to buy it
