I hate the Rod Salka fight. But does Swift deserve an easy one?

      Im not hating on Danny (he's fun to watch) but he's had his share of easy fights. He should be at least fighting Peterson by now. Dudes done enough milking.

      BTW the angst isn't toward you, it's in response to the thread. Even though TS is just trolling.

          lol

          I assure you I'm not trolling. I happen to think that occasionally feasting on easier fights while also taking on the toughest contenders is good for a world champion. He doesn't burn out too quickly that way.

          But I'll grant you that choosing Salka is really pushing it.

              If you look at Danny's career he's been in against one good fighter after another. Up to and including Mauricio Herrera.

              Is he entitled to take a soft touch?
              No he does not deserve a soft touch and neither does any other world champion!! He's a freaking world champion, there are so many deserving fighters waiting patiently in line while taking on tough fight after tough fight in the hopes of one day earning a shot at the ****en title!! Why would the champ deserve to keep that title hostage while he takes a freaking break. If you want a soft touch or want to go on vacation then you need to vacate the title and take a vacation from your profession.

              Furthermore, all of this deserving of a soft touch talk I keep reading about everywhere is just plain moronic and unbelievable in the sense that so many so called boxing enthusiast would try to justify anything short of the best possible fights.

                Of course. Fighters coming off losses typically come back with a gimme.

                    Lightning Rod is not an easy touch for anyone. He has 3 highlight reel kos and just schooled an undefeated Cuban amateur sensation.

                      They can do whatever they want. Some of us may forget to watch it. Only consequence.
