    i think the main reason he want's to fight dlh is for the money and he will most likely gain fans by fighting dlh. the same thing happened with gatti, except floyd acted like a clown thus gaining very little fans.

        "Irregardless Of Zab's loss to Baldomir a lot of people including the promoters still thinks that he is a formiable opponent for PBF"

        Exactly..despite the fact Judah has lost 4 times, wasn't even cometitive against Tszyu...some people listen to Kellerman etc..and think Judah is more than he is. Judah is an opponent..nothing more..if greatness is judged by defeating Judah, I feel so lucky to have lived in the era of Spinks and Baldomor (and Tszyu destroyed Judah in two rounds..where PBF took it to the cards).

            Probably because he would make a more money then any fight he's had, and the "star's" of the sport draw the mainstream/ casual fan, and Oscar is the fight that can do that. It would be a tough test especially at 154, and if he win's some of Oscar's fan's will become PBF fan's and some will hate him but pay money to see him lose! That's good for business, but I'm sure if he win's a couple of ppl will hate and say beating DeLaHoya at 154 isn't nothing and it was a picked fight blah blah. Yet they acknowledge he even looks small at welter, the usual whining because they want him to fight they're favorite fighter. The same as any normal person switching job's for more money, or a free agent signing with another team in a diff sport for a better offer. Let's not act like he's tryna fight some nobody!

              Judah got hit with a nice shot, and tried to get up too fast because he has a huge ego.

              If Judah wasn't a showboat, that would've been a very interesting fight. Don't forget Judah won the first round pretty convincingly.

                Think Judah is more than he is? Kellerman and others?

                You love boxing? then you have to live by it. It's not kellerman's opinion that counts. The promoters and the boxing governing bodies' decides who fights who and that's how it goes all this time. It's always money talk baby!

                    PPL keep bashing Judah probably because they had high expectations of him based on his amateur career and hype. He's still a 2 time champion who can give anybody a test when he's in shape, laugh all you want but Judah would be 1 of the best win's on many of the fighter's resumee that PBF hater's love and pump up. So I guess this just another form of hating, just didn't know ppl could laugh at a fighter that's accomplished more then their respective favorite fighter's.

                      it's been said over and over in this thread but i'll repeat it...

                      1. money$$$$$!!!!!
                      2. more recognotion, becoming a household name
                      3. legacy, oscar is a MUCH better name to have on your resume compared to anyone else out there for floyd. especially years after floyd has retired and people look at his record.
                      4. money$$$$$!!!!!
