      He is gonna lose there anyway. I really am not seeing him in anything more then a good but losing effort. ITs just a big payday for him and a name for mayweather.

        Just your head and really think...

        There are more negative than positives by having a tune-up fight. He can have all the tune-ups he wants in training camp by sparring.

        You don't have three training camps in a few months.

        He trained for Berto and now he's training for Mayweather. You want him to stop training for Mayweather and train for a tune-up fight?

        What if he gets injured during his tune-up fight? What if he gets a nasty cut during the fight? What if he looks extremely slow? You don't risk millions of dollars by having him fight a couple of months before his biggest fight of his career. He's not going to risk his biggest payday of his life for a tune-up fight.

          Thats the #1 reason why I dont think its that big of a deal. He didnt have a fight but Berto cancled so late that Shane did everything he wouldve done for a fight. Its not like he's been just sitting around. He went through a full fledge training camp, a ton of sparring, and so on. He will be sharp. Its just like if JMM cancled on Floyd at the last second. Floyd still wouldve went through a whole camp, sparring, and wouldve still been sharp because of it. Shane is also not fighting someone like Pac who has been super active. By fight night Floyd will have had 1 fight in 2 and a half years and most people try to discredit that and say it was a glorified sparring match. Or you can say that he will have only had 2 fights in 3 years. He's been crazy inactive but his name pops so much that people dont even realize it
