    So basically what you are saying is that everyone else should put themselves at a distinct disadvantage to enhance Floyd's reputation.
    150 was mentioned but floyd isnt really a catchweight man.

    Floyds is holding all the cards greenbeanz not the opponents.

    Floyd had to suck eggs when fighting oscar..all im saying is there are other options to be considered.

    Does anyone think that maybe because Mayweather-Guerrero wasn't the biggest draw in the world, by tweeting about Devon people might think he is afraid of Roberto and when he changes his mind it may make more money?
    Just a thought.

    The only problem with that is Guerrero is most likely a bigger draw then Devon outside of Saint Louis. I also do not believe that any rational boxing fan is going to buy into the notion that Floyd is scared of Guerrero. I do think you are on to something about being some kind of ploy though and believe that it will still be Guerrero given the date. Who knows with this guy though. He's got a date, location and Hbo in his pocket and needs a partner. If it ends up being Alexander then so be it. He's so far looked different at that weight and the Bailey fight imo cant be used against him. Sure he fought safe. Who TF wouldn't?

    Btw frasd I may be on the extreme other end of the country but I truly respect those greats of the past that come from the great Province of NovaScotia (on my bucket list to visit along with Newfoundland)

    Langford
    Dixon
    Mysterious Billy Smith
    Beaten

    Notice I didn't say Kirk Johnson lol

    Default PBF tweets about fight with Devon... IBF reports that they will not accept it.

    As you know Devon announced he suffered an injury weeks ago and his fight vs. Kell Brook was postponed...

    So earlier today PBF tweeted about a fight being in the last steps of done vs. Devon Alexander...

    The hours later the IBF sends out a message stating that they have not received any paperwork in regards to Devon fighting PBF and that they will NOT accept the fight since Devon is contracted to fight Brook...

    What do you think will happen?
    Will Devon drop the belt to fight PBF?
    If so what does PBF get out of fighting Devon? If not for the belt?

    Will they give Brook some "Step aside" money?

    Will PBF just move on and fight Robert Guerrero?

    Floyd is a 154 champ he can and should fight there he can bounce back and forth between both. But he shouldn't go over that. He has no reason too.

    I think Floyd will fight Guererro this is just messing about Devon and particularly Brooks. I do not think the fight will sell with Alexander. Floyd will fight at Welterweight that is his best weight.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I know Kirk but won't mention it to him. He is much bigger than me.
    Read a lot about Langford and for Christmas my wife bought me the book 'Shadow Boxing" about Dixon's life. Embarassed to say I didn't know alot about him before that.
    Newfoundland is great. People are the best but I can't understand a word they are saying. Much like Mayweather Sr.
    Cheers

    Tbh I always liked KJ and had high hopes for him.To bad he had the discipline equal the the life expectancy of a Med-fly. Not to many people know about Dixon or for some they see the name and go to boxrec and then form their opinion based on the abhorrent stats they have listed. Lol at the Newfie/Sr comparison.

    It is up to Floyd if he wants to diminish his own reputation. He has the ability to test himself more and make a deeper mark but he is more interested in the here and now. If Golovkin finishes an ageing Martinez he will kick himself. He could have been the one to remove Pacmans aura but he let Marquez have that mantle. He is a great boxer and a bit of an idiot but he could have been remembered as an ATG who turned back the clock.

    This had better be bullshit. Depends what Brook/Hearn say. If this is true they had to pay Brook step aside money. If Brook/Hearn don't know about this then it's bullshit. Also, too, existing contract.
