How is that? A rematch with guys that have accomplished something carries more weight than a fight with a guy that has never beaten a top 10 guy or has never been in a championship fight before last night. How does a Gomez win or a fight w/ Gomez for that matter hold more weight than a Floyd v Oscar rematch?
Its deeper than all that is being said...I think it has more to do with Floyd not wanting to give Arum that fight. Plus I think Floyd is a business man first. Concered with legacy second. Theres still millions to be made, as far as hes concered
His legacy is set ... he's a for sure hall of famer and his status as the best of this era has been set already. Its about money now ... but don't think that he's not focused on remaining undefeated.
i agree, he's way too arogant to have a loss on his record, when you are the pfp king, you've earned the right to pick and choose financially. If Margo or Cotto beats PBF, they'd be doing the samething, they're hungry now cuz they don't have the bargaining power of dlh or pbf. but when they do, all that challenging anyone **** goes out the window.
Finally other people who don't act naive like they don't know the truth about boxing and how the ladder of success goes with it its been done for years and Floyd is cashing in on it. Delahoya is the real reason the game is inflated they should be made at him not Floyd
Say what you will about Oscar, but he has a long record of taking on big challenges. In this reguard, he's the opposite of Floyd. Of coure, Oscar no longer has a "zero" to worry about, but even when he was at the top, Oscar made the big fights happen.
