If Floyd fights Canelo=another young hungrey lion

[ShoulderRoll]

Sergio Martinez is the one that I will concede. I think we'd all love to see that one.

[William Blake]

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

younger also means green.

if floyd gets props for canelo, then pacquiao should get even bigger ones for fighting bradley

[Ged21]

younger also means green.

I agree...fighting a young undefeated Bradley is as tough as fighting Canelo...both should be easy wins but the excitement is still there...obviously Canelo makes more ecenomic sense, I dont see Bradley bringing in alot of money.

How the fk do you figure that , when Pac is bigger than Bradley who is only a little better than Canelo who will have huge advantage in weight , ,,, show me the smaller fighter who can win a round of Floyd let alone make a competitive fight of it , you boys just ignore weight like it doesnt matter , unreal .

[Brother Jay]

lol, and floyd doesn't either? you're the sucker around here.

LOL .. what fighter can you name that has fought the #1 or #2 fighter in every division that they have competed in consistently?

Mayweather doesn't make the rankings. The best are those who have won their fights. They have fought and beaten whoever stood in their way to be at the top.

You may not like who the best is, but your opinions and hurt feelings do nothing but show your vagina.

who cares what he had done? it was two underfeated young hungry talented fighters. pascal had a damn good amateur career and he has proven to be a beast in the ring? I mean, did you see the fight? it's pretty obvious both guys were gonna be world class. and canelo's similar fight was what again? or are you never ever gonna answer, mr smoke and mirrors?

You are a fcuking idiot. You come to this site asking ****** **** like "Who cares what he has done". You get ZERO RESPECT.

Boxing is ALL about what one has done in the ring. There is nothing else. Its half asssed fans like you that attempt to make boxing about everything BUT what happens in the ring. If it were all about the quantity and not the quality then a man who fought 40 bums before he ever stepped up to world class competition could be considered a HOF and a ATG.

This isn't a team sport. A fighter has to depend on himself and only his performances determine how good or great he and his career is. Good lord your a dumb asss.

in fact, your comparison with this argument is soooooooo fawkin ****** because you could say it about ANYONE that came up with a good record? lol. you're such a clown.

No you couldn't. It really comes down to what a man considers "good". You and people like you have lowered the bar to a point where club fighters are considered ATG's in your mind.

you look at rankings and records, never the actual fighter themselves, which is how I know you don't know shi t.

Dude, I know more about boxing than your mother ever knew about your father. Rankings in terms of gauging the value of a win is incredibly important. you're just too ****** and full of hubris to understand that.

plus you contradict yourself all day every day.

LOL .. do I? You write about comments. I write about boxing. There's a huge difference. You type with ego. I type with understanding. Show me the contradictions.

what in canelo's career so far makes you think he'll be brought up the way froch was?

What makes you think otherwise? Froch was no phenom. Froch was just a guy willing to take chances. See ... that's the problem with you. you put people on pedestals and they haven't even done ****. Why say that Canelo cannot do something that Froch did? Froch hasn't really done anything but have the balls to fight in a tournament and be shown that against the likes of Ward is notches below!

was it the alfonso gomez fight or the jose miguel cotto fight that makes you think he'll go in as tough as froch being that he's already 10 fights deeper in his career than froch and the comp level isn't even close to close to close.

I'm not even endorsing Canelo. That's one of those "contradictions" that only YOU see but hasn't really happened. That's what happens with individuals with ADHD: You see and hear what you want because otherwise you have nothing of value to say!

Stay focused!

ooooh, frascisco bojado was a young lion too, so was chad dawson, maybe they are more examples of what canelo might be as well

You go off into these tangents and get lost in your liquor fueled rants.

Do YOU even know WTF you're talking about?

You keep making these statements ... but you NEVER back them up with anything substantial. You're like one of those loud guys in the crowd who fancies himself smart and informed until he's invited to get on stage to air his concerns.

And its not just you either.

Several idiots on this site do the same exact things that you do so that fighters that they like can be seen as having done something special ... when they haven't done ANYTHING special.

To be special, you have to beat men who are THEE BEST. Performing well in fights against guys who never really did **** proves little and does NOT raise the bar ... no matter how well you did against them.

If Pacquiao would have stepped up and fought the best at LW, jr WW, WW and jrMW .. I would be the loudest on this site praising him. He didn't. So I don't buy into the bull****. That simple.

Idiots here have called Cotto a ATG! It wouldn't surprise me if you were among them. Saddest part is that another loser has said the same about Barrera when Barrera is no better than Cotto. In some ways, he's actually less accomplished.

But because he's Mexican and fought in drawn out slug fests, he's somehow great despite his best win coming over a man who was equally as unimpressive career wise.

Put the bottle down and get your act together.

[Mr. Philadel]

Canelo aint ready....not a cool fight imo...but hey, bills have to be paid and ppl will buy into this mess once the machine gets rolling behind this one....What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again;
there is nothing new under the sun - Ecclesiastes 1:9

[PRking718]

this young hungry lion talk lost all of its sheen when people started calling berto a "young hungry lion" who pacquaio avoided. Just another buzz phrase floyd fanboys latched onto.

Give me a seasoned pro like martinez and cotto over green fighters like ortiz and saul (as opponents for mayweather).

^^^ the truth

[EdMon917]

Hungry Lion? LOL This guy gassed out in his last fight in like 4 rounds. Not to mention he throws the same punches and is light years slower than Floyd. Easy fight for Floyd. He TKOs Canelo. He should fight Cotto or Martinez.

[noStylez]

Easy fight for Floyd, Canelo has fought the best tomato cans available.
Talking about weight it will make no difference to the result the kid will gas and Mayweather will son him.

Easy money, easy work...Floyd Money Mayweather.

Canelo is a hungry up and coming lion. He's definitely green, but the kid has the attributes to hurt anyone if he's properly trained and focused.

No doubt it would be an upset, but history is full of upsets.

As far as Martinez and Cotto being seasoned ...

Yes they have experience, but they each have 2 wins worth mentioning.

Martinez and Cotto's only appeal is that they are both bigger men than Mayweather. Neither man is renowned for his ability because neither man has been able to compete at the top consistently.

At least Cotto has tried consistently. Martinez got a win over Williams and a win over Pavlik and decided to lower the bar.

The man has plenty of competition if not in then around his current division.

Has Martinez made any real attempts to do anything but fight smaller guys?

No.

Has Cotto fought anyone other than Margarito, who was damaged at the time(orbital bone), for anyone to call for a match with Mayweather other than pure fan adulation?

Canelo is green. This is a fact. Still the prospect of a fight with him is much more appealing than a Cotto fight. I would definitely take Martinez because of his exaggerated perception as a top fighter after having won only 2 noteworthy fights. He's a perceived threat only because of what he did to Williams. Then again, nearly everyone since has done the same to Williams.

We'll see.
