    Who else is there for him to fight? There is a very sad shortage of quality boxers these days.

    Life should be fair. Is there any reason why it should not be fair? Again, a horrid religious person justifying unfair treatment to anyone who disagrees with him. Like that hasn't been the century after century excuse for killing everyone who was different.

    Apparently that kind of thinking is self righteous and will send me to hell. However, I couldn't care less about that, I care about what is right and I don't think this fight was meaningful. I have suggested opponents. Floyd should fight them. Bradley at 147, Pac at 147 or Golovkin at 154.

    They are good fights that few would disagree with. No catchweights, just those fights at those weights.

    Life should be fair.
    I agree with you, but the sum of all experimental evidences over 5776 years suggests that by now life is far from being far
    Please, pay attention on that fact that I say "suggests" not "proves"
    Somehow Floyd deals with it, apparently you do not

    Floyd deals with it because he is a manipulator and is happy ripping off people and telling lies. Much like your good book of faith. They deal with it as all God thankers do.

    The concept of "fair" is a figment of the imagination...

    My main point was that guys like you are criticizing Floyd for being Floyd. Why should he be like you want him to be?

    Pro boxing is business. Now are no longer old days when pay cheks were not that high. At that time, pro boxing was like some advanced in skills, but regular, job. This is why I believe the overall quality was better. Now this business is done with different principles, Floyd shares his responsibility for that, no doubt, but he is definitely not the only one to be blamed.

    To sum up, you want a change - go for the root of the problem, not attack the branches. Does this make sense?
