Most of above comments does nothing bar advertise fight that might not eventuate, which Green no doubt appreciates. He's an extremely good self publicist.
Maybe wait & spare keyboard wear & tear 'til something concrete surfaces?

We all know Pitt ,Flanagan, Aloua,McCracken will be higher ranked than the fighter Greeny dishes up in December

Green not only has people talking. He has them putting their hands in their pockets and paying to see him fight. Nearly 9,000 at the Bolonti fight and probably more at his next one if it is in Melbourne.

Attracting nearly 9,000 paying customers to a venue 3,500 kilometres from home certainly speaks volumes for Green's popularity

Flores was highly ranked by most organisations and undefeated when he met Green. Referring to him as a can says a lot about your boxing knowledge. Or lack of it.

No offence mate but I will take Robbie Pedens word over yours as far as boxing knowledge goes.

Most of the organisations rated Flores highly and he was undefeated when he met Green. That isn't my opinion. That is fact.

lol
can't wait to see the response to that.
he'll twist something to keep arguing instead of saying u r correct.

I see you are back between bannings and for that reason you can be forgiven for not being up with the topic.

The discussion taking place here is whether or not BJ Flores was a 'can' prior to meeting Green, as claimed by the goose.

Fact is Flores was undefeated and rated highly by many of the organisations at the time and that is NOT a can.

I agree with Goose, he is a can and still is............. Its a nothing name on Green's resume on the world scene

Like a Boss us Aussies are not the only one who manipulate rankings. Take note off Bomber and study the records of the 5 Cruiserweights Flores had fought before Green.

Mendoza first fight at CW lost 3 of last 4 before fighting Flores at LHW.

Hererra lost 4 of last 6

Darnell Wilson

Ali Supreme

Wilson is the only 1/2 decent name add the fact Danny made him come in at a 195lb catchweight and he had been off 15 months. Tamas Kovacs was undefeated before fighting Shumenov who blasted him out in 3 before he fought Hopkins(no catchweight either). The undefeated,younger true CW line was to impress the casuals(same as Kovacs before the Hopkins-Shumenov unification bout) after the Siaca,Briggs fiascos. Worked on you it seems.

A can in boxing parlance does not describe a fighter who is 24-0-1 and ranked in the top 10 of four of the major world boxing bodies.

I'm sure you will continue to be critical of Flores. But the reality is he wasn't a 'can' when he met Green. Look up what a can is before you further misuse the term.

i'd honestly love to know what danny has done to these people personally.

it must be a ripper going by how much time they spend talking him down.

I've never seen anything like it before. its humorous but sad at the same time, lol.

"Flores, who has an impressive record of 24 wins and one draw, with 15 KOs, is ranked in the top 10 of four of the major world boxing bodies".

There are opinions and then there are facts

its obvious to everyone he was not a can and he still isn't.

these 3 will argue it with u until they run out of oxygen so u r wasting your time trying.

I'll return to the hatefest this thread has turned into when Green's opponent has been named. Until then it is just a waste of time and sanity

It's close to locking anyway, saving some final holiday

You would be the one to ask this. Does over a years inactivity lose a boxer his ranking with the orgs like it does with boxrec?

He has fought 2 decent opponents and been well beaten by both. Maybe he was a dehydrated starving ghost he was 5lb lighter against Danny than he was his previous opponent. :??

The BJ Flores Green fought was 24-0-1, ranked in the top 10 of four of the major world boxing bodies and certainly not a can like you claim he was

12 months inactivity = inactive is our policy & is system's auto function. We're not keen rating guys that might've died 2 years ago.
Had a situation with a couple of Regional bodies, where I had to alert them contender had past away yonks ago. One was still rated #3
In my cheeky way, I told them if title becomes vacant....I'll take him on

OK. I think a dead guy actually moved up the rankings with the WBO once.

Most title governing bodies, including major, simply don't have their finger on the pulse. Why should they given their principle purpose is sanction $$$$$$
