    As an Oscar fan, why have you go that picture in your avatar?

    I've spent the last few months trying to forget that fight ever happened.

    You're ignoring the fact that they're two of the finest technicians in their weight class. And FYI Floyd never cherry picked...

    Linares doesnt do that either....A young fighter like linares doesn't always have the luxury in choosing its opponents.. At that stage of his career, he does what his promoter tells him to do.... And his promoter happens to be Teiken who babies their fighters...
