    I find it funny that people really believe that 150 was Floyd's idea.

    Damn I leave this site for a few months on vacation and its the same people STILL tripping on here.. Jesus **** ya'll.. lol Really???
    Canelo said 150. to prove he wanted to fight Floyd, period. Martinez said the same thing. Hell I'll wager GGG would say the exact same thing if you asked him. Doesn't mean a two time champ should use that as an excuse to need a catchweight, now does it??

    Pacman did it, he was crucified. Now the same guys that crucifeid him have to defend Floyd, (who's supposed to be greater). LOL, I see it all thee time.

      Show me where I said any different. All I did was point out that Alvarez said 150 and is getting 152. Everyone flipped, some even denied that Alvarez said that. At the end of the day Floyd wanted 147 while Alvarez wanted 150 but later changed it to 154. They both agreed to 152.

        Who said I defended anything when I clearly said I don't agree on the catchweight?

        I mean do you not understand? Miss that I said that? Don't care that I said that but just want to flame? Or what?

        All I did was point out that Alvarez said 150 and changed it to 154 while Floyd said 147 and agreed to 152.

          Didn't say you specifically. Why so defensive though. Bottom line is Floyd has 2 championship fights at 154. Canelo said 150 a few years ago, Floyd is trying to hold that to him now??

            Offers from 2011 are not valid, you kidding? Hell with Floyd offers from 3 months ago are not valid.

            If he's the same size he was in 2011, why the CW? I mean the guy is telling you, he can't go below 154. He'll try of course for a career payday, who wouldn't?

              Because I point out that Alvarez in fact said 150 and some look at me like I lied.. It's a fact, Alvarez wanted 150 and Floyd wanted 147 they both changed their minds but agreed to 152. Is it right? No, it should be at the full 154 like vs Cotto.

                That's what I said about Pac wanting the same deal Floyd initially offered him. It's not valid.

                Yet I'll say it again, the offer isn't valid and neither was the 147 demand that Floyd made either. However they met in the middle of 147 and 154.

                The weight advantage goes to the 22 year old who fights at 154 not the 36 year old who didn't even make 147 last fight. Again my point was that Alvarez said 150. Some of you are trying to make it out as if i'm defending the catchweight, I'm not. All I did was point out that Alvarez wanted 150, Floyd wanted 147, they agreed to 152.

                  I'm just telling you, no reason to bring up what he said in 2011 cause it's worth 0 in 2013. Double so when the guy was (and is still) growing, common sense.

                  Hey you heard Cotto offered 145 to Pac? Wonder why he then said 150 was not good enough.

                    I know what you mean. I felt the same when everyone was saying that Mayweather should agree to the same 50-50 etc etc etc demands that he initially agreed to years prior. It's just wasn't valid anymore..

                    At the end of the day all I did was point out that Alvarez said 150 and Floyd said 147. Some thought that was a lie.

                      Exactly bro. Dawson said he would fight Andre Ward at his weight class but when he did he was very weak.

                      I don't get it. Wouldn't Floyd fans want Floyd to beat Canelo when he is at his best so there's no excuses????
