    And Duran went up to 160 to challenge an ATG in Hagler and beat a good middleweight in Barkley.

    But, I agree, there is no financial reason to face Canelo when Showtime will pay him the same amount of money to face lesser competition.

    However, do we all agree that Amir Khan, Danny Garcia, and Devon Alexander are not as difficult opponents as Canelo, Trout, or Lara?

    Indeed but that was a time when legacy had to do with actual pugilistic endeavors and not paydays alone. Leonard came out of a 3 year hiatus for Hagler 2 divisions north. When Armstrong challenged Ross he weighed in at 133. Those days are gone my friend and when in Rome....
