SAUL CANELO' ALVAREZ would welcome Floyd Mayweather coming out of retirement for a rematch of their 2013 clash. The Mexican lost a points decision to the American pound-for-pound great when he was just 23. Alvarez, now 27, faces WBA, IBF, IBO and WBC middleweight king Gennady Golovkin this weekend in Las Vegas. Click Here To Read More]
I posted about this inevitable fight earlier in the week.
Also remember, I said, why wait til next may, when they could do it this December.
3 million PPVs at $100, plus a $40 million gate? Which idiot says no to that?
I think you should read what Prime is since Canelo wasn't even remotely near his prime. While the fight is at 152:pat:
He was 165lbs in the ring, against a guy who was 150lbs, a guy who couldn't even make the 152lbs catchweight.
He was in there against a much smalller, feather fisted, 36 year old man and still got speed blitzed, outboxed, and walked down.
Truth Be Told
floyd was 36 and canelo had like 45 fights. Canelo has fought 7 times since the floyd fight. Funny how dougie fisher says canelo was a young green fighter against floyd but then says he is the more experienced fighter of 52 fights when it comes to ggg. If those 7 fights were against top quality opposition, it would be more believable. His only top fighter was lara and he struggled and many thought he lost.
straight f-a-c-t-s!!!!

When a defeat isnt actually a defeat. Canelo seems to absolutely love himself to the point of delusion.
Canelo did not say that Floyd did not win. He is simply saying that he lost in part because he lacked experience at that level and that he won in the sense that the fight taught him how to improve. Failure is a defeat only if you don't learn from it. You can't get better if you don't fail. Every successful person has failed before achieving success.
Yes it would be a tougher fight for Floyd obviously, but if Canelo was a few years pre-prime Floyd was a few years past prime when they fought. It would be kinda interesting to watch now, but it's time for Floyd to go to be honest. He won the first fight so easily it's kinda hard to sell a rematch as well. If it was close, then yeah I could see it being an option, but now he's at 160, just can't see it happening.
For the record if it did, Floyd still wins a close decision.

Yeah, because he only had like 40 some fights...total amateur
Mayweather beats Canelo 10/10. Stop trying to make it sound like Canelo was a toddler facing a man. He was a grown adult in his prime and got schooled by an old man. End of.
People act like canelo was about 16. He was 23. Plenty of fighters are multiple time world champs before they're 23. Canelo himself was a world champion.
Ok lets say Canelo wasn't quite in his prime yet, well Floyd was past his prime just as much, maybe even more so.
