NONE of the people calling for Davis/Loma or criticizing Floyd for this think Davis is ahead of the men I listed above. They want Loma to fight Davis because Loma would beat him and because Davis is promoted by Floyd.
in this era belts don't reflect how great a fighter is as they did a generation ago. Sometimes guys get belts because of their connections with promoters.
Even with the belt, every promoter builds young fighters slowly. For example, Is Top Rank going to match Oscar Valdez with Leo Santa Cruz, Russell or Frampton next? Of course not. No one is calling for Valdez to be put in with these guys. Yet posters go in on Floyd because he is actually being honest about not putting Davis in with Loma now.
Come on, its clear as day that this isn't about competition but something else.
