Is this fight PPV?
I'm a fan in JC's skills, and he very well could beat both of them. But why are we giving him the benefit of the doubt when it comes to the Winky and Bernard fights? He's made 1 big fight his entire career and he came very close to screwing that one up. Yet we're supposed to believe that he tried to make these fights happen instead of being content fighting in his backyard against fighters who hardly pose a threat to him?

And why wouldn't Winky take this fight? Bernard is the champ at 175. He's meeting him at a catch weight but it's still a light heavyweight bout and I would assume it's for the title...why wouldn't he want a title shot? Especially at 175 where he makes easy work of everyone there.

And why wouldn't Bernard want Winky? If he loses, he loses to a top P4P guy and in all likelihood, he sees the decision. Plus it brings the most money to the table. Yeah he's a smaller guy but ask yourself this. Is Bernard fighting Winky for any reasons different then why Oscar is fighting Floyd?

Yet I haven't heard Oscar catching any flak. Honestly, the backlash against this fight is surprising to me. Boring fight? Potentially. Insignificant? That's just ludicrous imo.
Why would he want a title shot,who else is there to fight at that weight after B Hop,presuming he wins? Whereas at 160 there were so many great fights to be made first and second,a JT fight takes precedent simply because it's unresolved business ,third,I'm sure he would have made more from the JT fight and fourth,he has more options after the fight. It would also be a more exciting fight.

And the Oscar Floyd is TOTALLY different! Floyd is the one who kept calling Oscar out! Floyd is the one who wants the big $$$ no matter what! Oscar is taking a much bigger risk than Winky is.

And like I said,anyone can say what they want,but Fenster has posted so much information about JC wanting to make a fight with B Hop. And at this stage,JC would hand them both(Winky and B Hop)ass whoopings imo.
