[WESS]

Mayweather vs Guerrero
Trout vs Alvarez
Broner vs Burns (hopeful that it's Gamboa)

All top fights in the respected weight classes. Even though Mayweather is too good for everyone at WW, the JMW division hasn't established anyone who is good enough to fight Floyd either. Hopefully Trout and Alvarez settle this problem. Broner will just destroys anyone 135 and below. It's time for him to move up to 140.

If this card turns out to be true, it will be huge and displays the BEST fighting the best in the respected weight classes and THAT is what boxing is all about.

Much respect to Canelo if he does in fact sign the fight with Trout. I won't be calling him CONelo anymore if he does beat Trout (which I don't think will happen).

hate to be the one to **** on everyone's parade but.......

Chris MannixVerified @ChrisMannixSI

Golden Boy CEO Richard Schaefer tells SI that @NoDoubtTrout is "being considered" for Canelo but "at this point, don't think it will happen"

and then trout replies with this....

Austin TroutVerified @NoDoubtTrout

@ChrisMannixSI there you go y'all kill all that excitement (._.)

Man that would be a great card. Hope this happens so the boxing fans can see if Canelo is legit or not.

I like Austin but I think he gets hurt in this one... I felt if Cotto had a bit more in the tank, Austin would of been in trouble.. he didn't look incredibly sturdy during the Cotto fight, I think Canelo is a different animal in 2013 than a Cotto.

Broner is rumored for February now.... Hope I'm wrong, bad ass avi.

When Boxrec puts it up it usually turns out to be true, yeah?

Respect to Golden Boy and Canelo. I know he gets **** because Lopez was so small, but twice now he's had big selling, high interest matchups spoiled by virtually unknown guys and he's fought em. In boxing, if you beat the man you should take his spot; I firmly believe that. Lopez and Trout earned their shot.

Looking forward to May.

complete and total props/respect to alvarez if he does in fact get in the ring may 4th against trout. i'd favor trout, but i wouldn't mind seeing either fighter win tbh. the winner of this fight can be claimed as the best at 154 imo. floyd holds a title there, but he's only fought twice at 154 and is likely to return to WW in his next fight. i can't wait until official bouts and pressers come around. hopefully it's a great card.

Hopefully The Ghost gets the respect he deserves after this fight. People sound as if they think Floyd is getting better with age or something....he isn't Martinez and the decline is more noticeable with each successive fight.
