    I don't see this guy getting a shot at the big fight anytime soon. This man is a problem and he's improving. He is at this point quite a bit faster than Spence or Crawford. Yea, Crawford is an elite fighter, but his legs didn't look that good against Avanesyan. Hands didn't look all that fast to me either. Plus he was getting hit more than usual. Bud is slowing down. Speed isn't everything, but I think Ennis' speed and movement would be quite a bit of a wake up call for either Spence or Crawford.

    At this time, Crawford and Spence are both too much for him. He needs more seasonings.

    147 is a horrible division now, even keith thurman must think so since he doesn't fight

    Praying the new belt Floyd creates does indeed became the ONLY BELT. Nobody cares to fight because theyre all "champions". Interim, regular, super champions...like wtf??? And that's multiplied by 4 with IBO trying to become a 5th recognized title body...a true joke.

    I just feel that a Mayweather belt would be the biggest joke of all the belts. Would probably give Jake Paul a chance to be champ.

    I agree that there needs to be a bit of a revolution in as much as which fights are made under an authority in boxing and what the boxers are striving for. I just don't see Mayweather being the answer.

    Completely agree. Am willing for anything to be the answer. If there's 1 belt there's 1 champ. You either fight the champ or you dont. Ducking doesnt get all that complicated anymore. But when any and everyone is champ its easy to avoid meaningful fights

    Nobody in Floyd's circle is smart and cutthroat enough to pull this off unfortunately.

    He’ll get a shot when the belts split up sfter Spence vs Crawford. He either has the ibf interim or the mandatory so it’ll be by the top of 2024..
