Because Danny Garcia is fighting Thurman next year does not excuse him from turning down Pacquiao

    Fine. Like I said earlier, Thurman is regarded by many as the best WW in the division, he's undefeated and in his prime. I know what you're going to say, "Buh buh Brook is better, he beat Porter more convincingly!" True, but that don't mean ****. Porter arguably lost the first fight to Julio Diaz and Thurman wiped him out in 3. But like I said that don't mean ****. Pac is past it, doesn't bring a title, all he is, is a name.. Danny won't get full credit for it so why bother, when you can take out the top guy in the division who's in his prime. It doesn't make sense to go after Pacquaio now, does it pacturd?

    yes that was very stupid for him to not take the Pacquiao fight. He would have lost yeah, but it would have been to Pacquiao and for a career high payday. If he loses agianst Thurman it's for less money and not near a fighter as Pacquiao

    Nah.. He wanted Sturm and was blatantly ducked, Martinez .... got side stepped, then he agreed to Cotto and got side stepped and then wanted Canelo then got ducked, wanted Saunders and got ducked, wanted Eubank and got ducked wanted Jacobs and looks like getting ducked, If it was just for money he would have fought Ward . He wants to be the unified, lineal and Ring MW champ. As soon as he gets that I think he will start looking at 168 and 175 divisions.

    He accepted the step aside money and went about his business.. He took money to not fight Cotto, Martinez, and Canelo and now they all beat each other but Canelo.. If GGG wanted to fight these guys do desperately, I think he would give into some demands.. Maybe share a little more of the purse, call a bluff or two, or lose a few pounds to fight Canelo.. Instead, he's taking his pride home and is getting left out again.. Do what it takes to get them in the ring then make them pay.. That's just my opinion of course...

    Pacman is washed up. He should not get in the ring again. Stick with politics.

    Why resort to name calling. That seems to be the only thing guys like you can do when you can no longer articulate your argument. So basically you called Blizz a code word N-word because you have no argument to make anymore. Classic neo-Nazi, KKK mindset.
