    Well then floyd should have no issue with fighting thurman instead of ducking him and getting spence to take out his laundry.

    First berto. Then broner . Now spence.

      Champions should be forced to unify every year.

      4 champs per division is bullshyt.

        To show you, bradley just won the WBO belt. Same belt Floyd won in May and never lost.
        You mean the belt that Floyd has not paid the sanctioning fees on and has not abided by WBO rules and vacated his titles in another weight division? The belt that WBO will be declaring vacant and hand to Bradley if Floyd has yet to take a decision this week? Floyd may be above the WBC's rules and the WBA's rules but at least one sanctioning body is standing firm and treating him like any other fighter and forcing him to make a decision. What a shame.

            Exactly...

            This is why I can't wait till PBC makes and sanctions their own belts. Everyone will want a PBC belt because it'll be considered the "REAL" belt and champion in the division since his stable is so Deep.

              Titles are won in the ring from other champions,of course as a GGG fan you know nothing about that since he has 3 pretend titles and has faced 0 world champions

                And now we see the reason for the other thread you started. I would call you an idiot and an asshole but I'm sure that you are very accustomed to being called those names by now. It's difficult to win titles when those holding them are too cowardly to get in the ring to defend them. Or when they will vacate rather than fight or when they need multiple tune up fights before fighting you or when they will just ****ing retire instead of fighting you.

                How about you ask Cotto why he won't abide by his mandatory defense? Ask Lemieux why he is not interested for at least another year? Not a spine between them.

                    Screw the Super Bowl. Let's just watch Cowboys vs Pats every week because those teams are entertaining.

                      Floyd have made his own championship belt a long time ago. **** the sanctioning fees and other bull**** that comes with these corrupt, biased, for-profit sanctioning bodies.
