    Wow, you're a delusional idiot and get the constant race baiting **** out of here. I'm so sick of people always inaccurately blaming their race for their problems

    :rofl Log off or accept the real.

    "They" want to give Golovkin ATG credit for beating absolutely no one but, try to minimize Ward being an unknown underdog and beating every top guy in his division in 1 tournament.

    "They" want to make every Black fighter a villain after the Mayweather model whether they are or not.

    1.All of a sudden Ward is a ****y loudmouth?:huh
    2.Crawford is a talkative thug who runs, but had the big bad E.E. fighter turning and fleeing like a startled deer.:huh
    3.Garcia is a POS for beating Salka ,but Manny is better because he beat up a career lightweight named Brandon Rios after a knockout.
    4.Povetkin is caught using a banned drug, but Errol Spence "has" to be on something because of his nipples?:patsch
    5. Rigondeaux does not deserve this and that because he is boring. But Lomachencko failing to make a fight with anyone is the other fighters fault because....because... White Power!

    Just out of curiosity and not trying to start anything but, was there ever any pressure to Floyd fighting Canelo?

    Yeah, big time. People were saying that Floyd was scared of a young, strong fighter. Canelo was begging Floyd for a fight and did not fight on the Mayweather vs Guerrero under card because he was mad.
    The pressure was the reason why it sold 2.2 million PPVs.

    The difference between Manny and Floyd is that Floyd won a title at the weight and continued to hold on to it so fans expected him to campaign at 154 and defend the championship.

    Manny won the title against Margarito (people questioned why Antonio was getting a title shot after being inactive and not really accomplishing much since losing to Shane) at a catch weight no less. Immediately after winning the 154 title, Manny said that he had no intention of staying and defending in that division.
