Any of the young and hungry Turks that Floyd seems to want to avoid like Brook, Thurman, or Khan offer a reasonable degree of redemption, but also present an equally reasonable likelihood of defeat. If redemption is the goal, Pac-Man can double down by fighting Juan Manuel Marquez for fifth time. And if he beats him, sweet redemption could be the reward.
Will this "avoid" nonsense ever end?
Some said he didn't fancy fighting Hattons style, he fought him and made him look easy. Some said he would avoid Shane, he fought him and made him look easy. Some thought he was scared of the big young Canelo, he fought him and made him look easy. So many claimed he was terrified of Pacman, he fought him and made him look easy. Does the wrong and broken record ever end? Floyd has fought a who's who at championship level for 18 years. Stop with the nonsense, because it is disrespectful to all those doing less and every fighter out there does less.
