Canelo is a big event....but he has only one real win against a ranked junior middleweight. He is for sure a good fighter has crazy potential but at this time he would her outboard handily. IMO he would need a tarveresque one punch Kayo. He fights in spurts which would be his downfall. Everyone will say he is green
im reading some of the dumbest comments ever in here....... Why are people sayin floyd fans want alexander instead of canelo? No one mentioned him in this thread but floyd haters. Its been nothing but fckn whinners the last day. "oh chicken floyd is old and has no legs he's gonna lose" now its " oh chicken floyd is running from guerrero's power". It was "floyd is gonna cherry pick canelo cuz its a easy money fight, he wont fight no real challenges" to " oh floyd wont fight canelo cuz he knows he's gonna lose"
much the same from some floyd fans "oh floyd will whip canelos ass he's too green" to "oh floyd shouldnt fight canelo because even tho they're two jmw champs canelo is too big." fck outta here.
truth is if he beat canelo tomorrow, he wouldnt get a lot of credit all of you know this so stop pretending like he would. Theres always an excuse as to why he wins. That said, if and im saying this a fan, IF he decides to keep fighting at 154 then the canelos and laras ect of the world is what he would have to face it comes with the territory or give the belt up. I personally dont think he should be in 154 in the first place bc he's too damn small. The man himself says he can do it or if he feels he can then so be it. But instead of downing the mans competition b4 he chooses a damn opponent why dont u name some ppl "worthy" of mayweather at 147 if he decides to stay there? Benard hopkins did about 10 fights of wacc ass comp in his title reign (maybe more) but he was fighting in his division and he doesnt get this treatment. Mayweather fights his mandatory and ppl are complaining?
It seems like he gets condemned bc fighters arent as good as he is. But pac fought most of the same opponents some after floyd did and with cw and yet he gets hailed as a warrior, someone please explain that bc it really doesnt make sense. The man just had a competitive fight at 154lbs, spent 2 months in solitary confinement, spent a year out of comp, came bac at 36yrs old and just whipped his mandatorys ass like he never skipped a beat. Lets just relax with all the hate filled posts and see what he does next, then judge based off that.
The point of the fight isn't to stand there like a moron and "trade more often," its to win dude, to win. But not just to win, to win as unsullied as humanly possible.
what fight are you talking about? pleasing the fans is such a crime, isnt it?
I bet you'd give em more credit if he just stood there n let himself be hit hu?
nahh i would give him credit if he talks all that smack and goes in the ring and goes into his shell and stinks up the place.
I would give him credit...he's moving up against a young, strong and quality boxer who by the way proved himself. Plus, it's the most dangerous fight for him at the moment, something for the last several years, he's been accused of avoiding.
Immense respect, it'll go a little bit in my eyes for restoring his image for ducking prime Cotto in 07-08 and Pacquiao in 09-10
more credit than if he fights anyone else.
More credit than if he fights Alexander.
Don't know why Floyd fanatics have to worry about these stupid things. It gives the opposite impression - they're scared of Canelo for their hero. That's what I'm getting. He doesn't have to fight this huge guy because he won't get credit. He will get credit fighting Alexander. What a garbage.
Floyd could fight Jesus and beat him solidly but the haters would move the goalposts to deny him, then they'd want him to take down God too. Let's not pretend.....
That's far out man. I get how the road to Jesus leads through Guerrero, what with the facial hair, the flabby physique, the 700 Club and gun possession charge.
I dont understand what you mean. If floyd fights canelo and stops him I would give him credit, I would also like it if floyd would stand and trade more aften, you know make fights more interesting.

you are a perfect example of a closed mind, Theres a difference between being great and forcing people into beliving you are great.
I think my mind is actually pretty open, its this site that's really a dung hole gathering place for ridiculous haters.
Oh yes, yes I'm sure it's all on Floyd as to available opponents and what their promoters might be asking for. Whenever a fight doesn't happen it's all Floyd's fault of course, he's a chicken cherry picker. All the fights he takes are because he's just a chicken that doesn't know how to please his fans, oh wait he's the highest paid athlete on the planet.
Problem is, everyone is mediocre compared to Floyd........

If floyd would of fought any of those fighters it would only help him get better recognition for his achivements, but he didnt did he? I would of prefered to see chavez jr or canelo on the cinco de mayo weekend, Or any other exciting mexican american boxer. Since floyd is mr ppv he went on and picked guerrero a mexican B+ fighter and just happen to fight on cinco de mayo stinkin it up for us real fans....

thanks for your charity. i should probably pretend guerrero was a great fighter and floyd fought the best competition available. that would cure my problems right? or maybe i should enter the fantasy realm and pretend floyd is the best based on performances against mediocre fighters and translate them to how floyd would do against the elite. that seems very sane.
+++1 great post bro.......
Beating a guy like Canelo will show later. But if Mayweather wins, he becomes ring champ at 154, gotta be retarded to not give him credit. Then later what Canelo does the rest of career will only add to Floyd's legacy. Beating guys like Guerreo mean nothing but a big fat pay check for Mayweather.
I really wonder if you really believe any of those fighters would have beaten Floyd, seriously. If you don't to see Floyd fight again that's your call, spend your money elsewhere, it's not hurting me and it certainly isn't hurting Floyd.
Good luck with that.
