"Should be a great fight but i might put my emotions aside and bet on Krusher at those good odds +145" Seems to me your emotions are with Kovalev. I agree you should put them aside and bet on Ward. Don't take my word for it or any one else's. Let history be your guide. In rematches where its boxer vs. puncher, the boxer wins most of the time.

...or maybe he has a lot of fighters on his plate so they decided to get with coaches that'll give them the attention they deserve?

that ***** is eyeing Khan for his next fight.... after Khan beats Maidana,Khan vs mayweather will be the new talk in town. Just Watch , this board will be flooded with "Khan is better than pacquiao", "Khan vs Mayweather is more dangerous than Pacquiao vs margarito,Cotto,Clottey", BY THE FLOMOS to justify this cherrypicking. This coming from a Pacquiao fan? I swear 80% of pac's fans are blind followers with little to no intelligence. :banghead:

He's looking like a ****ing beast for this upcoming fight. I think he is finally starting to grow into the welterweight division. His punches DEFINITELY look a lot harder, more crisp, more pop, more power. Looks like he's bulked a bit too even....he looks alot more muscular than he did even before the canelo fight. Enough talk, just see for yourself. This video was recorded during the 1st week of training camp. Here's the video of him hitting the heavy bag during the most recent open workout. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_-q0pcMvow

If you find their trash talk surprising then I doubt you've spent significant time in boxing gyms. This is quite normal.

Sorry solidified who the duck is. Sh*t is never getting done. He's going for 49-0 and no dangerous fights. Alvarez only shot is hitting him with a power shot. Puncher's chance and that's it. Catchweight king? Where's all the two-faced *****s talking all that sh*t about Pac but numerous things ok for Floyd? Opposition abilities Cheating on the Scales Cheating in the Ring Rebuttal all you want but you are just showing cum all down your throat if this doesn't make you sick! Just as bad as Arum Give it a rest. The fight will never happen so move on with your life.

I'm getting tired of Pacquiao and his team commenting on Floyd Mayweather. He has two losses, therefore he has to earn the right to face Mayweather, period.

I think Mayweather has slowed down. This is gonna be a tough fight for him and I think either (a) they know it - hence catchweight, or (2) they're in for a bit of an awakening. What's gonna happen if CANELO catches Mayweather like Mosley did? Mayweather is odds on to win but I give Saul a good shot. It'll be competitive, I think that. You're quite wrong. Floyd made it clear that this was going to be a very light workout. Although, he gave you glimpses of his speed when he was on the bag and my oh my. He looks incredibly sharp. I honestly would not be surprised if he comes forward and walks Canelo down.

You can't blame Cotto for ducking a monster like Bundrage.Bundrage is first in line for the winner of Canelo-Mayweather. He has earned it and he would be the biggest possible payday for the winner. After he destoys the Floyd-Canelo winner he will be the pfp king and the new face of boxing. You can't possibly be serious. K9, is that you?

Actually, you're wrong. The critique of the HW division has nothing to do with race and everything to do with skill.

Good point. I just watched the Floyd/Cotto fight yesterday and Cotto gave Floyd a hell of a fight. The thing with the Trout fight is the fact that he had a considerable height and reach advantage. But Floyd landed more clean shots so I lean towards Floyd. It is difficult to accurately compare the performances of Trout and Mayweather against Cotto. Mayweather was fighting a naturally heavier, stronger guy in Cotto. Also Cotto was in much better shape for the Mayweather fight than he was for Trout.

Many people are overlooking Canelo. He is a student of the game, similar to Mayweather. To think he's going to step into the ring with only a one game plan is outrageous. While o think May's going to win, I wouldn't be surprised is this ends up being his toughest opponent in 5-10 years. Going to be a great fight.

This is going to be a mismatch. Stevens has never faced a fighter the caliber of Golovkin, whereas GGG has dealt with heavy punchers numerous times throughout his career. Basically, I don't see anything in Stevens arsenal that Golovkin hasn't already seen before. This combined with GGG's ring generalship = mismatch.

I was at the press event and his Pacquiao comments were in response to a fan who kept yelling Pacquiao's name. Floyd didn't just bring him up unprompted.

Come on dawg as far as action HBO has been owning Showtime. Tell me any fights on Showtime that were better than Bradley-provodnikov, rios-Alvarado 2,and froch-Kessler? Not to mention that hbo has some great rising stars like GGG,mikey garcia,Terrence Crawford,Adonis Stevenson,sergey kovalev,and rigondeaux. Also the future number one pound for pound Andre ward And Pacman Bam Bam Mile High Dinamita Desert Storm And the son of the legend Chavez jr. Did you really just challenge people to tell you which Showtime fights were better than Froch vs Kessler? Sorry, but I can't take you seriously.

So i will be in Chicago June 23-29 and i just read that Mayweather and Canelo are going to be in Chicago on the 26th for the 11-city Promotional tour. Did anybody here ever attend something like this? Is it basically just a press conference in front of the fans or is there something special going on? Do the fighters take their time to sign **** and take pictures? It is my first trip to the US ever and Im pretty excited for this and dont really know what to expect. I've never attended a promotional event, so I can't answer your question. Just wanted to say I hope you enjoy it!

I'm sorry to say this, but you all are idiots.

He has a cold

Thanks for the debate, but you need to realize floyd ducked the big fights,, only way to explain it,,,, in the past 10 years, just name his big fights,, and everyone will have floyd at an advantage like the hatton or jmm, or a catchweight with canelo, or waiting til they got old and shot like cotto and shane,,, But once again there is always an excuse from the fanboys,,, After reading through this thread, it's clear every one of your arguments has been proven false, yet you continue to maintain your position. Also, you need to distinguish between fact and opinion. "shot like cotto and shane" - Opinion until you present facts showing this was indeed the case. And tell me, how exactly did Hatton have an advantage over Floyd? Remember, I'm looking for facts here, not opinion.

J Prince responded out of self preservation, not genuine concern for his "friend" Andre Ward. Floyd only stated the truth. Ward is a gold medalist, a great fighter, has a tv friendly image and still isn't well known outside of boxing circles. That is indicative of poor management, plain and simple. J knows this, hence the straw man argument about Broner and Floyd not being able to be around "real men," whatever that means.

Lil J a boss. Always has been, always will be Your boss maybe. Men like him are parasites who thrive off of the success of others, without giving anything in return.

Floyd lives scared. Floyd fights scared. But that's one of the things that makes him so incredibly dangerous. Particularly when he's facing an opponent he feels threatened by or in the rare instances he's been hurt. I.E. Diego Corrales, Chop Chop. I've seen every fight Floyd Mayweather has ever participated in as a professional boxer, many of them multiple times. I wouldn't be at all surprised if he hurts, knocks down, or even stops Canelo depending on the circumstances. Little Floyd has a killer inside him. You just need to make him feel compromised enough to bring the beast alive. This is someone who knows what they're talking about.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the fact that Floyd was battling a cold the week leading up to the fight. That combined with the heavier weight led to what many of you perceive to be declining reflexes/speed. Floyd is still sharp and will make easy work out of Pacquiao due to size difference and boxing IQ.

Mayweather's Media workouts are nothing like his real workouts. Ive been to a handfull of them and its literally the same routine everytime I go. I wasn't able to make it to this one, my work schedule is Graveyard so i was sleeping :( but my brother was able to make it, and he had an interesting observation: Of course this is no indication of how he will perform IMO. It's a good sign, IMO. It means he is very focused.
