It seems that a lot of people on here are jumping the gun on Floyd vs Canalo negotiations, Lets see how it plays out first. Usually you ask for things your not going to get so you can get something you really want. That's usually how negotiations work!!! There's also a chance that Floyd puts it out that he will only fight Canalo at 47 then have people say I won't give him credit unless its at 54. Then Floyd fights Canalo at 54...
Thoughts???
its just foyd and pac fans and a few real canelo fans trying to one up each other ...most pac fans are FOCUSED on humiliating floyd so they jump on any and everything they can jump on. pac was KOed and has more problems than a crack head in north detroit now all of a sudden canelo is their new guy and floyd is scared of him, everybodys just crazy.... floyd fans actually try to make them think otherwise and are driving themselves crazy (i occasionally play into it so im guilty to) so we are all just crazy if he fights n beats canelo their will be a new guy (lara, martinez, ward, etc) repeat cycle
hopefully the fight is made but i doubt it happens in sept
How do you know that he has never made a concession during the negotiation stage? Most negotiations are carried out in private, meaning you will only see the end result.
we know becuase floyd has the reputation to b1tch out..the only time he did'nt get what he wanted was againts hoya who was the boss at that time ...
Some of us have jobs and can't post things every single day. Keep trying tho bud. El Angel? lol d*** riding at its finest.
Except when involves your man Floyd right?
Amateurs? :lol1: 67 posts. Clearly an ALT.

People should chill. There were people saying Mayweather-Cotto wasn't going to happen at 154 and it did. The fight will happen at 154, Floyd knows he can't fight Canelo at a weight lower than that, but I doubt it happens in September. I see it happening in May or September of 2014 most likely.
I wouldn't be surprised to see Floyd put a hydration clause in there though, like he can't be over 170 lbs, which is reasonable if you ask me. The biggest fighter I've seen Floyd face was Ortiz who was already huge at 164 lbs on fight night.
Yeah cause they always see eye to eye, right? Floyd Sr "suggested" the fight be at 147, when did Floyd Jr whos the one actually doing the fighting say anything? He hasn't, oh and schaefer already shut down the rumor for most of the "amatuers" here lol.

he didn't shut down sh1t. what'll shut it down is that fight being made at 154
amateur response. When Floyd "Jr" comes out and says the fight is at 147, then we have something to talk about. So until then, shut up with the speculations.
This is the moment where Floyd fans slowly start to change their stance from Wow Floyd wants to drain Canelo down to 147? To Floyd Mayweather calls the shots, if he wants Canelo at 147 he'll do it and Canelo will listen.
Same thing happened when they thought Floyd was gonna fight Alexander. At first they showed disgust and then they started talking about how good of a fighter Alexander is :lol1:
besides never, when was the last time Floyd conceded anything in a negotiation against a fighter that posed a challenge?
How many times are you guys going to give Floyd the benefit of the doubt before you realize that he's never going to fight anybody that has the talent to beat him at their best.

Floyd's dad said he was speaking for him... Are we just supposed to ignore that?

Fair enough, but when you have 2 guys that are holding a belt in the same division, you negotiate the money split, ring entrance, whatever. But never weight, not for divisional champs.
My thoughts are Canelo wants to fight Floyd but at 154 pounds since Floyd has been the WBA 154 pound superchamp since May of 2012 and Canelo is the WBA 154 pound regular champ and therefore Floyd's #1 challenger.Floyd does not want to fight Canelo so he insists that Canelo fight him at the welterweight limit of 147 pounds knowing damn well Canelo can't make that weight and won't agree to those terms. So my thoughts are this fight ain't gonna happen, no way, no how. I look forward to Canelo-Cotto and Mayweather vs. Alexander or Garcia or some other 140 or 147 pounder.
to be honest it's a lot of you guys fault...........why jump the gun when negotiations are still on going. we don't know sh*t yet and canelos trainer blowing complete smoke out of his a** doesn't change that. (he himself doesn't know whats going on)
why won't you guys just let the negotiations play out first so you don't look like a complete fool..........
jesus.....
