    It's rare to hear Floyd call out or talk smack about anyone really

    The fact that he's talking about GGG and De La Hoya mixed with the overall negative backlash from May 2nd....

    I think Floyd has something crazy in mind for September, thoughts?

    Mayweather DLH II. GBP needs the money. He probably had to sacrifice and arm and a leg to retain Canelo.
     
  3. Heard he wanted to give Oscar a rematch. It will be sponsored by depends and a Mexican cartel that sell Oscar his ****. Bernard Hopkins will be on the undercard,. He will be facing reality that he is an old man and still not very marketable.

    Honestly fighting Oscar would make the most sense business wise. Casuals love Oscar and Oscar will talk about how he promises to defeat Mayweather and go out on his shield if he has too. They could call it The End or some ****. Load the card up like crazy. Yes Oscar has been out for a while and has had his issues but casuals aren't going to give a **** about that.

    Hell I could even see the creating some fake beef with Sr and Jr and Sr going back to train Oscar to face Jr. Screw it I would by that **** just to see all these legends ride off into the sunset.

    Stop it. Fighting Oscar would be a joke. That fight is not happening. Oscar is not coming out of retirement, and he probably can't make 154 without killing himself.

    Yes to us real die had fans but I honestly don't give a **** who Floyd fights in his final fight. If he chooses Oscar then so be it and I bet you Oscar even at this stage gives a better showing that cuffquiao. Hell throw, Roy Jones, Hopkins, and Sugar Ray Leonard on the card for all I care. Its a farewell fight so he can do what he wants. He has earned it.

    But fighting Oscar would just be a clown show. Khan, Brook, Porter, any of those guys would be much better options. It's a moot point anyway, because Oscar is not coming out of retirement.

    At this point he can fight anyone he wants. He already fought Alvarez and Pacman on his Showtime contract. The guy is nearing 40 years old, he doesn't have to take on world beaters at this stage of his career.

    If he wants to have a one-sided exhibition with DLH, than I say go for it. The promotion for the fight should be entertaining and I'd expect a very one-sided match on fight night.

    Now GGG on the other hand would be quite possibly the most dangerous fight of his career. He doesn't need that kind of fight at this stage, maybe if he was 30-33 years old. But not at 38, that's asking too much from him.

    Fighting Oscar at this point would be disrespectful to the sport, the fans, and Showtime. Floyd's better than that. He's not some up and comer or a has been that's desperate for a payday. Floyd can certainly fight who he wants, but at least fight a top 10 caliber guy who's relevant.

    Oscar could use the pre-fight hype to announce he is becoming a woman and walk to the ring in a dress. It wouldn't make it anymore of a circus than it already would be.
