But being as both Pac and Mayweather's fans will still buy their fights they'll also find ways to justify who they're fighting instead of one another.
So when people say, "If you don't like it, don't buy it!", I'll go along gladly with that rule. It's not killing my Saturday night not watching Pac or Floyd.Originally posted by RL_GMA View PostIt's the next biggest fight Floyd can make. You gotta remember guys, Floyd isn't here to fight all the young lions of the world let alone a full fledged Middleweight. He wants to make the most money he can before he bounces. The only guy that comes to mind as far as creating an event that would be a success with two big fan bases, no other guy fits that bill with Floyd better than Cotto as of right now.Originally posted by RL_GMA View PostMayweather fought a lot of left overs in the sense of not fighting undefeated fighters
Cotto's the only guy I see him fighting due to money, name, his age, and size comparison.
You seem to hate on Mayweather no matter what. Canelo is undefeated, and young! Yet you still dont give him any credit. You said he doesn't fight anyone younger,bigger,stronger and undefeated. Canelo is all of the above, what do you have to say about that.

I would. It would be better than Pacquiao vs Peterson or Cotto. But it would still be a disappointment because I want the Pac vs May fight.

I really think Canelo's punching power could bother Floyd. Alvarez hits you everywhere, and could possibly beat Floyd up to the point where he could break through Mayweather's famous defense.
Canelo is an extremely good technical boxer, and he's also extremely strong, physically stronger than anyone Floyd has faced. Canelo just looks very solid when he's in the ring and could overpower Mayweather and bully him into the ropes.
Perhaps the quality that Alvarez has that I most appreciate is his killer instinct and will to finish off an opponent when he has him hurt. Alvarez goes for the jugular once he has his opponent in trouble. He is as fierce a fighter in this situation as we've seen in recent times.
If he were able to land something solid to get Floyd in trouble, as Shane Mosley did in 2009, Canelo would finish him off. He has demonstrated that ability time and again.
While I doubt this fight will happen sooner rather than later, it is a fight that would be huge for boxing. Saul Alvarez is a huge star and the fight would generate huge revenue. Look for this fight in May of 2013, perhaps as the final fight, or close to it, of Floyd's career.
I'm not saying Saul would win, but I guarantee one thing—he'd make for a highly competitive, very interesting bout. Not my words but its spot on!Last edited by SWEETSCIENCE100; 01-18-2012, 01:39 PM.

People dont give Canelo enough credit. Does he deserve the fight? Hell no.
But do he have the abilities to make it a competitive fight? I believe so. I actually give him a good chance against this version of Floyd. But well see if it happens.
Why i believe this? The kid has some of the sickest combinations ive ever seen. He hits hard, very very hard, and with alot of speed as well. And if he catches Floyd with a few of them, it can definitely change the fight.
He got ALOT of things to work on though. Stamina for one. He also has to learn to mix in his offense with his defense. Its usually all out offense or all out defense like when he did with Gomez.
I give him the best chance out of all the opponents not named Sergio.

I mean think about it, what did an Ortiz win really do for Floyd more than the actual controversy of the outcome? Simply just give him more press? If that's the motive going into every fight, then yea he can fight all the up and comers. But in a realistic world, Floyd is at the tail end of his career and he's looking for the biggest check of his life and he'll bow out.
