It's not that Shane is a dying breed of boxers it's that he is in the same group as fighters who didn't earn a lot so take on what essentially pays them best. If he had earned big money earlier in his career he'd probably be retired.
Shane has always stepped up alway fought the best, and will take on the tough test and the avoided fighters.
Shane stepped up and fought Oscar, when Oscar was no1, he fought Forest, stepped up to Winky when no one else would, fought Cotto when Floyd didn't want to know fought Marg when he was top dog and now is fighting Pacquiao now he is the no1 p4p boxer in the world.
If it was all about money for Shane would he have fought Winky?
Floyd on the other it is not about legacy or money to him or he would have fought Pacquiao what he would have earned the most money and gained the most in legacy.
It just about protecting his record by taking the easiest fights for decent money.

Boy, dont we Boxing fans have short term memories??????? We all do remember WHY Shane was inactive for so long before the Floyd fight dont we? I do remember 3-6 months after Shane broke Margo off, a certain Boxer calling Shane's name, and if I recall correctly, Shane flat out said he didn't want to fight, he only wanted Pac(Remember, he even asked Pac to let him come in at 142, since they where saying he was too big for Pac).
Shane was inactive because he was chasing the Pac payday. So lets not ***** on Floyd too bad for fighting Shane, and lets not give Andre too much credit for being the reason that Shane was shelved for so long. Alot of Shane's inactivity had everything to do with HIM(Shane).

I say Shane deserves this fight. He hemmed and hawwed for it for the past two years. He has taken on just about any and everybody(saved for the fella he ducked back after the margo win). I say let him get his shine on, he might pose a set of problems for Manny.
