Thank god we dont have to listen to Kellerman for one day less in our lives. Now show time should price Roy over as well and I'll really be dancing!

Guerrero it is then. Well Iron Dan will be pleased.

I don't think Floyd fights all 6 times. But great news anyway, the contract probably has something like Floyd is free to retire when he wants, or else Floyd at 36 years old NOW, would not have signed that contract. Maybe it's a fight by fight deal.

Anyway, if Floyd fights even half of that number, that would be great. 6 more fights would put him at 49 pro fights, but again I doubt he goes through with all 6.

I dont like fighters signing long term deals with networks

No!!! He's DUCKING more often!! Because HBO has the best fighters! Now he'll be fighting B fighters! Here's the line up, Guerrero, Alexander, Mallinaggi, Peterson, then whoever has the least threat! That's how Floyd operates! His Health is more important!

HBO doesn't have any fighters you dumb ****, they work on a fight by fight basis. All this announcement means is that Showtime will air the PPV's instead of HBO, they probably offered to do it for a smaller % of the split than HBO.

PBF will fight 3 more times under this contract. Maybe 4 if we're lucky.

His opposition will never get any better than Guerrero. Take that how you want to.

Canelo might benefit along with Broner, as they will be much more valuable to HBO now as their claim on the future?

Who else in HBO's pugilistic hierarchy becomes more important (if anybody) and gets promoted to a higher level of promotion as a consequence of this possible move by Floyd?

I don't get it though, if you don't like Floyd then why are you spending time out of your day to commenting in a Floyd thread?

Gee...well probably because i want to!

Hope that helps you!

The only reasonble answer to your question Deltoro is this:

Why do people use this as an insult instead of a moment of rational thinking. Who would you rather be Floyd with Money and Health or Ali with Parkinsons and legacy

The more I see this type of sucka ass response/excuse for boxers taking easier fights the more I hate these kind of boxing fans. You can get hurt fighting ANYONE. Fight the best.

However, Floyd is a fuxing genius. I bet 50 Cent is KICKING himself right now (actually, they should still be cool enough to work together). Anyone fighting in the lead up fight to Floyd's fight will get at least a half million. All of his fighters will be showcased....the exposure will be awesome and Floyd will get TONS of well deserved credit for boxing being back on TV.

This floydiots are delusional saying Showtime is better now! lol! HBO doing the right thing for the past year.. they giving us what we want to watch and FOTY caliber fights! They are trying to force fighters to fight that are worthy for the viewers! Showtime become a ducking channel or easy fights for big stars.. Look at Pac - Mosely... huge pay but low quality fight... And now, Floyd - C class fighters...

can you give me fights from last year from showtime that is worthy to watch again? but I can give you fights last year from HBO that you will love to watch again!
