    "Yes, yes, we want the rematch, we're committed ... all I'm saying is that the winner of Lemieux and Saunders is an option ... no, we're not ducking Golovkin, but ... Canelo Lemieux would do big numbers too ... no, I said we want the rematch ... I'm talking about Saunders because he's an option ... look, don't pressure me, I don't care that people think Golovkin won ... we want the rematch, just not right now ... what's the big rush ... we could do Canelo/Lemieux and me vs McGregor on the cinco ... well up yours too."

    - overheard in Oscar's vicinity earlier today.

    No one wanted a piece of Hagler in his prime.
    Rigondeaux is up there too.

    Pretty Boy Floyd before he bacame Money Mayweather was ducked n awful lot. I'll never forget Mosley pathetically offering up a loose tooth/vacation excuse for why he wasnt interested in a fight with Floyd.
