Well they all want to fight each other. Idk about davis. Hes doing his own thing. Chasing greatness fighting a blind fighter lmfao
Hey whats worse an exhibition between a legend vs someone 20 years younger and skillful or a professional fight with a young guy fighting a blind guy?
Can only imagine the fallout with Canelo not defending his belts getting stripped and fighting exhibitions with Teo or Spence.

Originally posted by Eff Pandas View PostEh. I think they all do wanna fight each other or more importantly are willing to fight anyone including each other, but the business always gets in the way in boxing is the thing.
Worlds tend to work how they are setup to work & boxing is setup in a way to maximize revenue & minimize risk. Therefore marination is what we will always see more often then fights happening when they are at their peak hype or better yet before they even hit their peak hype.
Lopez: acting like a diva claiming to be the A++ side wanting 10 million per fight.
Haney: Calling people out also claiming since nobody is calling him out everyone is ducking him.
Davis: Not really doing anything but letting Floyd control his career so he really has no say who he fights
Garcia: Too busy trying to make the big money fights and look flashy.
Loma: Too quiet but has said he wants to fight Davis next if no rematch with Lopez. But again, been too quiet.
None of them have really shown they are willing or plan on fighting each other. Nor has their promoters. They will marinate for another 2 years and by then I will have lost interest.

I legit can't argue with any of that, but largely I think its all about attention for the fighters more than any of these facts mean much in making fights. All these guys, save for Loma who's the old school guy of the group, are super savvy at getting attention & getting themselves talked about. That got them to where they are more than their wins although lately their wins have gotten more impressive & respectable & pushed them into more serious talk among hardcore fans. Them talking sh^t is just part of the game these days.
And I get the timetable isn't happening fast enough for fans, myself included, but lets not forgot that the Four Kings only had 4 fights vs each other (SRL vs Duran I & II, SRL vs Tommy & Tommy vs Duran) when any of them were under 25. And only 1 fight happened when both guys were under 25 (SRL vs Tommy).
And right now Tank is 26, Teo is 23, Devin & Ryan are 22. And if you wanna throw Shakur in there cuz he could make it 5 he's only 23. These guys still got plenty of time to make fights among each other.

As long as they keep testing themselves with good competition I have no problem marinating. But if they fight chumps...
