          Yea in the initial contract there was a list of fighters Floyd agreed to fight
          Fighters like Angulo were on the list

          Now they exhausted those options

          Floyd PAC will happen because Floyd fights for money .

          People say this fight is too late. 5 years too late. That's true from the perspective of is fans wanting to see prime vs prime versions versus one another. But this fight is now bigger than ever. Floyd said it himself - I don't need to fight PAC - I get 40 mil fighting someone else. 40 mil was the figure back then . Now it's triple that. Neither fighter is scared. Nows the time.

The fight never happened though times it was close to happening.


              Either way people don't try to take away from his legacy stop trying to it with modern guys



              Regardless if may n PAC fight money will be the favorite.... He has more skills, on the same level as PAC athletically, but his drive ability to bite down when he needs to and feeling black balled in his era when guys he is better than are more beloved like Manny, odlh, and gatti

              That mental edge is the difference he doesn't get rattled and he adapts...pac has those attributes but to a lesser degree.


              We can agree to disagree....but please bro can you let that SRR thread go
              Maybe you missed it but Reed told us to stop the SRR discussion in this thread.
