    Well I'm sure you have no problems with fighters ducking each other for years as you're a well known phlomo sapien

    You can try and justify Bivol ducking Beterbiev for years, but the fact remains that 7 or 8 years to make a unification fight is the biggest tragedy in unification fight history.

    I've been calling it like this since before Canelo moved up to fight Bivol.

    So spare me.

    Phlomo insecurities right here!

    Let me spit some hard cold facts for you.

    Mayweather refused to fight Pacquiao between 2009-2015. That's six years.

    Bivol refused to fight Beterbiev between 2017-2024. That's seven years.

    Canelo fought his first official 160 lb fight against Cotto in December 2015. 1.5 years later he signed the contract to fight Golovkin.

    Eat it and weep it.
