    Now look at GGG, never took no risks, acting like the A side with Canelo when he's clearly not while being criticized by more than 70% of the boxing fans for his resume and still not trying to make any concessions to make the big fights happen, why is he better than all the fighters before him that took risks to become stars in boxing? if he wants to be great then he needs to go through the same process, that's just fair and that's what Floyd means when he says Canelo doesn't owe GGG anything, GGG needs him and he's supposed to do whatever it takes to make the fight if he's confident in winning.

        Canelo just buying himself a few seconds that little ginger puss gonna get smashed no condom on gonna be bleeding after GGG done with it.
        So why do you want GGG to fight him?? what will it prove?

          It will give GGG an easy payday and it will put him further out in the limelight whilst making Floyd Mayweathers win over a green Canelo look even worse.

            Therefore anything Floyd says about the GGG-Canelo situation should be taken with a grain of salt. Floyd wants Canelo to wait till GGG gets old and then beat him, because it benefits Floyd himself.

                    But if Floyd wanted to be as good as he wanted to be. People were obviously going to put him under pressure to fight there
                    If Duran can then there's no excuses for Floyd. Not everyone is impressed with Floyd's body of work

                    Well if you aren't going to fight toughest in your own division you have to take GGG test! Floyd had nowhere to hide. For a change his own division was stacked and division higher he feared at this time.

                      In 2005 Floyd could no longer make his current weight division
                      Let's pretend that his body maturing is some sort of achievement

                      Oscar Dela Hoya fight presents itself
                      Only after losing to Shane Mosley at 154lbs, Oscar then moves up to 160 to try his hand at this new division he gets schooled by Felix Sturm but robs a decision (only gets the win to keep the B-hop fight alive) he then goes on to fighting B-hop and he gets KOed he then drops down to 154 once again this time older and more fragile he beats rubbish opponent in Mayorga who got gifted the WBC belt after this he fights Floyd
                      All those facts yet he still gives Floyd Mayweather a big scare

                      Accepting a 90-10 split
                      Factoring in the percentages, Oscar De La Hoya ended up earning $52 million, the highest purse ever for a fighter. The previous record was $35 million, held by Tyson and Holyfield. Floyd Mayweather earned $25 million for the fight.
                      Agrees to A-sides terms
                      The gloves had no effect in Floyd's performance, the ring had no effect on Floyd's performance, the judges had no effect on Floyd's performance nor did they score the fight biasedly
                      Am I missing something here am I suppose to be impressed by that?

                      I believe I just exposed your crappy comment that only a Floyd nuthugger would approve of, I do look forward to your feeble attempt of a response.
