    Floyd said last night that he and Todd DeBouf of TR had spoken about this fight. Both guys need to win their upcoming fights for it to happen.

    Damn Tank never should have called out Floyd.

    This is Floyds way of taking out the trash.

    Gervonta tweeted something criticising Floyd and Mayweather promotions, saying he wasn't ready for the Pedraza fight but won anyway in spite of them. He's been hanging around with Broner too talking shit about Floyd apparently. Basically Mayweather is getting back at Davis by feeding him to Lomachenko.

    Bizarre. Why would he talk shit about Floyd? He was Floyd's boy, and being plugged as the next big thing etc.

    What did he actually say about Floyd?

    Anyway it should be fun watching Chenko school him.

    Gervonta isn't impressive at all, and I think his power is way overrated. He seems to make hard work of every fighter, even "palookas". Still, to beat Loma, your best bet is to also be a southpaw, so Gervonta has that at least. But from what I can see, Loma embarrasses him.

    Davis seems really stupid and easily led.

    Again, you impress me for an American. Most Americans on this board wouldn't know what "MP" usually stands for I bet.

    Floyd’s Probably Been Disenchanted w/Tank Since He Came In FAT for his Bout on the McGregor Undercard, Losing His World Title On the Scales...

    Took Tank 1 Fucking Title Defense to Show a Lack of Discipline Floyd Could NEVER Be Accused Of...

    May as Well Cash Him Out and Cut Ties...

    Gervonta complained, Floyd got him a big money match with Loma. Looks like Floyd did him a favor

    Yeah, and fair enough. I mean seriously, he was part of the second biggest fight card in boxing history, and couldn't even be bothered to make weight? Fucking bizarre.

    As much as I've disliked Floyd over the years for various reasons, he is nothing like that, he's always been the consumate pro.

    Yep.

    Unprofessional for Any Fighter to Miss Weight, and Patently ABSURD for a 22 Year Old (at the Time) to Do So, In his 1st Fucking Title Defense...

    REED Can’t Stand “Money May”, But Floyd Mayweather Busted His Ass for the Better Part of a Decade On PPV Undercards, Fighting In Ballrooms and Having to Face TOUGH Mexican Fighters Just to Draw ANY Asses to Seats, Before “Making It”...

    The Broner’s and Tank’s of the World Look at the Finished Article w/Out Acknowledging and Adhering to the WORK Floyd Put In...

    Say What You Will About Him, But Floyd’s WORK ETHIC is Above and Beyond Reproach...

    Not to be pedantic, but it was his second defence. His first defence was against Liam Walsh at the Copper Box in London, and guess what? It took him three attempts to make weight there as well.

    REED Assumed Walsh was the Title Fight, for Some Reason...

    The Theme of Gervonta and Spence “Crossing the Pond and Winning World Titles” was Being Thrown Around...

    Ah seen, yeah Pedraza was the title fight.

    The annoying thing is, I quite like Gervonta. I think he's talented and on his day is exciting to watch. It's hard to remain a fan of somebody who is so disrespectful to the sport though, and the blatant ducking of Loma got on my tits.

    Gervonta ain't THAT talented. I fail to see it.

    Loma would have to be drugged to lose to Davis.

    Davis is talented, Loma is special. Gervonta has no shot against Lomachenko.

    Yeah. Lomachenko makes everything look effortless whereas Every Davis fight looks like hard work for him.

    Davis's problem is he is basically small for his weight class. How does he size up against Loma?
