Re: Floyd Mayweather stripped of his title
If you want to be an alphabet title holder then you need to fight the mandatory.
Floyd had reached a point in boxing where he is bigger than the title. So, he would fight for a title and give it up whenever he wanted. Since hes the best fighter he'd always qualify for another title fight and any fighter would be happy to fight him because they'd make the most money of their careers AND the alphabet organizations were happy to sanction these fights because Floyd holding their belt lent credibility and prestige to their title.
For fighters who are lesser than Floyd, (which is every fighter), they have fight the mandatory and kiss the asses to advance their careers. All the while being treated like cattle, being robbed by managers and promoters and being shit on by asshole fans.
Floyd is a pioneer in freeing fighters from their slave contracts with managers and promoters. He's trying to create an atmosphere where fighters are in charge of their careers, their health and their lives. How can you oppose that? (I'm sure you donkeys will find a way)

Floyd is a pioneer in drug testing and self management and promotion.
Your blind to these facts because you dislike him to the point where you won't give him credit.

EVERYBODY picks who they fight. No fighters (unless they were controlled by the mob I guess) were lead to the ring at gun point. You think top guys haven't been picking, choosing, and vetoing opponents for decades?
Floyd just CHOSE to fight the guy who, for the last 7 years, people said he was afraid of and that would beat him to a pulp. Who should he have fought? You can't say Floyd is fighting stiffs out there.

They honestly should. What has the WBO done for Floyd?
