    Or the guy wasn't man enough to fight Pacquiao till he saw Pac was on the down side? Remember this:

    Floyd: "Pacquiao has to leave Arum or Bob to make the fight"

    Floyd's groupies: "seems legit"

    Floyd: "Pacquiao needs to join Showtime and Haymon"

    Floyd's groupies: "seems legit"

    Floyd: "40 millions no PPV revenue for Pacquiao"

    Floyd's groupies: "seems legit"


    And let's not even talk about 750ml of IV fluids.


    .....
    Short memory right?
    Mayweather wasn't on the downside?

    "Mayweathers legs are gone"
    "If Maidana can do that Pacquiao will kill him"
    etc etc.

    JMM P4P #2
    Pacquiao P4P #2
    Canelo P4P top 10

    No risks though. derp derp.

        Taking risks right? Mayweather says to take risks. GGG would actually come down to 154 to fight Mayweather just so Mayweather can somewhat be at ease. So why does GGG need to move up to light heavyweight. Wouldn't that be the same logic.

          QUOTE=Isaac Clarke;17052135]You mean like fighting Roy Jones early in his career?
          Roy Jones was one of the best talents in the sport and Hopkins lost the fight. How was that not a risk, HE LOST.

            Hopkins doesn't claim to be 51. He claims to be alien. So GGG will be fighting an alien. That's actually harder than fighting a human don't you think. Credit to GGG for taking on a 168 lb alien if that was the case.

              Using P4P ranking to hide the demands and advantages Floyd used? Very smart.

              Sometimes I don't even think you guys are real boxing fans.

                WTF are you talking about? Dela Hoya was on his way out the door! Mosley was waayy past his prime! you think Juda was a risk fight? Baldomir was a risk fight? Cotto was a risk fight? Didn't Manny dismantle Cotto before? Listen, Floyd has had a really good career but he's far from TBE. People seems to think, if you beat a belt holder, you did something big! They give belts away like candy on Halloween. They have about 5-10 belts per weight class. I can't think of one risk Floyd took over the pass 10 years. People complain about GGG resume but the other top MW has made it publicly known they want no part of GGG! How horrific is that! If you was a true boxing fan, you would see unifying all the belts is better for boxing. That can cut out some of the cherry picking. To be the man, you have to really beat the man with all the belts.
                if those fighters arnt risks then no fights are then...and none of the other top middleweights can hold a candle to anyone on floyds resume period not even close

                      WHAT other champions in boxing are taking risks? No one in boxing takes **** risks right now. It may be the most ridiculous sport in the world.
                      The world knows Pac walked away from a 5050 split in 09...because of random testing.
