    But I wish that they'd somehow started working together, imagine all the exciting matchups. I for one would love to see this fight.
    Yeah it's a darn shame. However they should start from smaller fights and then move on to bigger ones.

      Yeah I agree man, start somewhere... I like Bob Arum (really like him) and I know this sounds a little messed up, but I think TR and GB will start doing business once he is no longer present.. And I wish him lots of health and a happy life but I just don't see Bob doing or allowing another person to help GB out while he can do something about it.

        At least Broner fought at WW. He technically has a title. When was the last time Pac even fought a WW with a title? Hell, when was the last time Pac even fought a WW who was coming off a win?

            Because this isn't about Mayweather and by admitting that GBP and TR have issues will only justify why the fight never got made with Pac which would kill their ****ty logic that Floyd ducked the fight.

            Ironically Pac has ducked every legit WW since 2009. Remember the WW Champion in Shane Mosley? Yeah he was "too good". What about Mayweather? Yeah he didn't want to take them tests. At least not until 4 years later. Bradley II? Yeah he didn't want that fight again after being called out.

            3 top WW's and Pac ducked every one of them. Openly ducked them too.

            Pac Broner would have been a hell of a tune up for Pac and a great test for Broner.

                  The best answer I can give you is Miguel Cotto, despite the catchweight.

                  Before Miguel fought Manny, he beat Clottey with a SD in his favor. Both men were welterweights and the fight was fought at 147.

                  Everyone else was either coming off a draw(Margarito, Mosley), a win in the LWW division(Marquez), or a loss(Clottey).


                  Manny hasn't fought any Welterweight(at the time of fight signing) at 147 coming off a win at the 147 limit.

                    Yeah I think I probably have to agree with you. Arum might just be the source of the problem

                      I apologize. I thought you asked when he last fought for a WW title.
