        112lbs, though.

        Skills are skills, but imagine Floyd fighting Roman Gonzalez. And then imagine if Roman Gonzalez knew how to kickbox but had no real aptitude for grappling.

        Floyd will take care to make sure that the rules aren't stacked against him, but the danger of fighting a guy that size (in a fight that likely doesn't leave Asian, tbh) is far more manageable, even if Floyd was feeling froggish and opted for full MMA rules.

          And we criticize the hell out of Roy for it. Calling him broke and tarnishing his legacy. Floyd can’t get it too? Any other retired boxer pulls this and we are all being critical of it. Floyd doesn’t get a pass because he’s Floyd.

                It would explain why he didn't go the UFC route. Dana wouldn't play ball with his rules I'm sure. So he's gone to someone that will.

                  Is this real or am I really just that high?

                  What if he saw Rigondeaux-Amagasa one day and was inspired.

                    This and the McGregor fight should not be counted as a professional boxing match. It is a money-making circus. He is still tied with Marciano in my opinion.

                      Exactly. That’s what I’m saying. Roy’s last two fights were against nobodies...but they were nobodies who had participated in a boxing match before.
