    not 2 weight classes but one and if it truly is a big fight. now "big fight" can mean something different to so many people but if Canelo was calling out GGG for a year or so and GGG didnt fight him and chose ppl like Monore then that would be a duck. if it was Thurman calling out GGG then thats not a duck IMO

    Not if the heavier WEIGHT CLASS fighter isn't draining to be a bully in his division and could easily meet the demand of fighting S of his class.

    For instance.... JCCJr was a monstrous MW. Him calling Floyd up to 160 for a fight would be BS.

    Or if Walters called out LSC or Rigo.

    But.....If May weather called out Crawford or even Barthelemy.... I wouldn't called it bullying. Those guys are giants at there division where Floyd on rehydrates maybe 6 lbs over 24 hrs.
    Same with GGG. He could easily go to 154 to make a fight with Alvarez and have to cut LESS than the LMW would and would weigh considerably less on fight night.

    As to the OP....
    IF the fight is able to be made between rival advisors, promoters networks etc....the financials are fair enough.....

    Its a duck if it ain't made.

    Unless of course if its someone like Paul Smith calling out Kovalev or even Cleverly for that matter where the one calling out is just horseshiit in every way imaginable...

    I disagree.

    If Thurman... Who is a huge WW said to GGG.... LETS FIGHT AT 155-160....
    And the $$$$ was close to fair....and it could be made with all the politics pushed aside....

    GGG would be a duck if he turned it down

    Nah, not at all. i could care less if a man is a big WW or this and that. 2 weight classes below. A MW got bigger fish to fry then to fight a WW and it for sure anit ducking lol
