      I want the Canelo fight and Canelo wants to fight Floyd for real. It's not a ploy to hype his name because his name is already well known. I doubt Floyd will risk his 0 fighting a 22 year old undefeated hard hitting 154 pounder. He will probably play it safe and fight Guerrero.

        Regarding Pacquiao, you can never tell how a KO would affect a fighter but I don't think Floyd's the worst fighter to be going in against in that respect, he's not a KO artist and he stands in front of his opponents now.
        I'll ask you again, do you have a link for Roger saying that?

        I know Floyd Sr said it. But I've never seen Roger say it. I'm not saying you're lieing, I just haven't seen it.

        And, you don't honestly believe that Mayweather can make 140 Lbs.

            It's not a play to hype his name?..then what is it?..I think it is a play to avoid the steps that every fighter have to go thru..and avoid the top ten JMW..

                Martinez was willing to come down to 150 for Floyd or Pac, now I think he'd only come down to 154. He's fighting Murray next so he can't be an option, I don't know why ******s are mentioning him.

                  I think it's funny people think Sergio Martinez who will be 38 in February, hasn't been to 154 in 4 years and 8 fights (counting Murray), can all of a sudden cut down to 154 lbs once again and be the same fighter. If Sergio was really actually a small Middleweight, he'd only re-hydrate a couple pounds on fight night or he'd leave 160 and go down to 154 where the bigger fights are. He's done neither. He comes into the ring anywhere from 167-170 lbs, but people say he's a really small MW.

                      For the standards placed on Floyd. ALL those fights would get bashed.

                      - JMM. Even if the great Burt Sugar was alive he would go against everything he said like in the first fight where he thought JMM would give Floyd hell and could beat him. The entire boxing community knows it would be another easy fight and just another way for people to point at the fact that Floyd dominated the guy that Pac could never decisively beat. So no, **** fight as was the first one.

                      - Pac. He hasn't fought a top WW since Cotto at a CW back in 2009. Judges had Pac losing to a JWW fighting at WW in Bradley (like they had LW JMM losing to Pac at WW last year). Pac just got KTFO as he's still the same fighter from 2008. Until it is Pac’s last fight, Bob Arum is not interested. That has been known for years. So no, not happening for another year or two.

                      - Alvarez hasn't fought anyone at JMW to prove he can hang with someone like Floyd. Though he is elite for ANY other JMW fighter not named Floyd. He should be fighting Trout. So no, not yet.

                      - Guerreo isn’t good enough, though he is elite for ANY other WW fighter not named Floyd. So no, nobody at WW is even good enough to beat Floyd let alone be considered a real threat.

                      So shall we start talking about Floyd fighting MW's? SMW's (without catchweights of course as that is a big big big big double standard no-no for Floyd)?

                      The entire boxing community knows unless Floyd fights someone a lot bigger than him and in a weight class that he does not belong in, it will be looked at as a cherry pick and a fight vs someone who is (as the pactarts say) just not good enough.

                      However it's something like 70% of the "fans" (espn or Ring had this pole) stating that Floyd Alvarez needs to happen. Yet when it's signed I look for many of these "fans" to flip it up and call Alvarez overly hyped and green (post fight of course). So ya'll don't act surprised if Floyd gives those 70% what they want.
