I've always said this was the fight for Manny. I would've matched Manny with Danny Garcia followed by Canelo and then retire instead of fighting Floyd. Stylistically he matches up well with the first two and I just don't see Floyd losing to Manny. If Manny beats Bradley, Garcia, and Canelo in his final three fights he goes out as a top 15 ATG in my opinion.Quote:

I want people to fight in their own divisions. This yo-yo in weight stuff is a major problem. Why would anyone fight the hard fights in their division if there is even a chance they can get the payday against the Star 3 division up or 3 divisions down? The sport has become a circus act. And it doesn't just effect the clowns. The guys that set up the tents know if they hang around they just might get sent out to perform. So everyone does nothing in their divisions so not to risk the opportunity outside their division.Quote:

He would go to 154 to fight a WW but not to fight a Jr MW.(Mayweather/Canelo) He would go to 168 for Steiglitz, Chavez, Froch, but not for Ward. Pick and choose, pick and choose. Even now it's all about Canelo, which means absolutely nothing for 160. His best opponent is a WW for F sake. He fought a WW!Quote:

GGG best opponent was not a welterweight.Quote:

The only reason he would fight Canelo and Floyd is the money they bring.
