If Floyd fights Canelo=another young hungrey lion

[jrosales13]

Floyd can't win with haters.

Khan - untested, KOed, smaller etc
Berto - lost to Ortiz
Ortiz II - already beat him
Guerrero - Not worthy, smaller
Martinez - overrated, older, catchweight
Pacquaio - expected to win vs a Pacman who is limited vs a counter punching style
Cotto - Pacman's leftovers
Bradley - small
Canelo - untested, overrated

Can anyone win with haters?

So ******....

who is years younger and will outweigh him by damn near 20 pounds on fight night

Yes, and maybe Floyd can fight JCC JR next. You know really take on all the young hungry lions. Look the fight makes a lot of sense from a business standpoint, and might even be entertaining at times in the ring. However, please don't sell this off as some sort of heroic move on Floyd's part, this is NOT padding his resume.

As if fighting Ortiz was not already somewhat suspect in terms of taking on a green unfinished fighter. This is certainly suspect. Just let it be what it is, Mayweather needs a dance partner, has a Cinco De Mayo date, and there is a huge Mexican draw in Canelo. Let's not pretend Canelo has earned this or that Mayweather is putting himself in any serious risk

Canelo is just young and hungry. No lion involved there. He's a "Plan C" opponent--if Pacquiao and Cotto fail. If it's him, I'll be thoroughly disgusted. I'd rather see Ortiz. Did I just say that? I'd rather Mayweather not fight at all.

How truly hungry is Canelo though? Just because he is young doesn't mean he is hungry. What has he had to work for? He became a draw and a star in Mexico without doing a damn thing. He can't be hungry if he is eating well.

Can't believe that in the bold

I agree it's both but more on bob because they won't even negotiate it.

Everything else I agree with Homie.

true,


I would also lay more blame at BOb,

Floyd's been fighting better comp since the whole OST thing started. Bob's been using it as a chance to fatten his own pockets as pac's reputation's expense and the expense of real boxing fans.

i feel the same way.

If Canelo is the fight for May 5th I agree with the bold whole-heartedly!!!!

[SWEETSCIENCE100]

Larry, you know I'm a Mayweather fan as much as anyone here, but Alvarez is not a good fight. Economically it makes sense, but that's it.

I'd consider the Ortiz win miles ahead of Canelo. At least Victor had beaten Berto.

Cotto is the man Floyd needs to fight.

Cotto is garbage dude! Canelo would destroy Cotto in less than 9 rounds. Margarita took Cottos heart, please give up this Cotto non-sense!

Hey can't be that hungry he still looks like he carrying a lot of baby fat.
