Adonis verbally agreed to fight the Krusher last year and then backed out to fight 2 joureymen (1 knocked him down). Khan, though I think Chep's delusional remark is perfect, never ducked out of a fight he agreed to. Quite the opposite, he only wants to fight the best, elite, top money guys. I'd rather a boxer hold out for a great fight than fight a bunch of unappealing ones (GGG).
Garcia was just one of Haymon's studs reigned back last year awaiting for PBC to presented. First fight of the year is against Lamont Peterson and that excludes him from the list for sure. That is going to be a classic fight and possibly FOY that no one is talking about right now.
Lastly, I know you couldn't list everyone but i'd really like to Andre Ward on this list. This guy is an absolute joke. The balls he's got commentating at boxing events during this ridiculous hiatus and now trying to dictate A sides of his fights. How the WBA hasn't stripped him of his title by now is ridiculous. Ward will avoid GGG and Kovalev, that's a guarantee. He wins one tournament filled with mediocre talent and ends up on P4P lists. He hasn't beaten any elite fighters in my opinion. Poser.
as much as i dislike ward, cause he is just super boring, but caldo speaks nonsense, super six was filled with strong quality boxers, kessler, abraham, direll, froch, ward, thats no joke, that are b, b+ and a level boxers, top dogs, as simple as that. ward is by no means a ducker.
as far as khan goes, there is no shame in wanting to fight the best boxers, but if it is obvious that for years you cant get them, than dont come with algieri, collazo or devon.
my motto is, if you cant get the best, than fight the second best. if you cant get floyd and pac, than box thurman or brook, but dont tell you want the best opponents available and than you come with algieri
