    Think about how big Floyd and Ellerbe's egos are and you got this 22 year old kid calling the shots. That has to be what's holding everything up.

      As far as I'm aware when Mayweather fight's in May it's announced in mid-late January.

          All I know is that he's fighting PAC-BOY May 4th, on a non televised match. PAC-BOY signed as soon as he was guaranteed a pair of Manny Pacquiao Nike's, signed by Floyd Mayweather Jr. The fight is scheduled for one 2-minute round.

              Floyd hates when other fighters make huge amounts money off his name. I bet he will demand a very high share of the purse to fight Canelo because you have an unproven fighter who hasn't beaten anyone getting a record payday off his name. I can't see how he would be cool with that.

              And now this kid is going to try to call the shots and dictate when the fight with Floyd will happen?
              I wouldn't be surprised if this was it.

              In my opinion, they know Canelo has to beat someone credible to make a potential May-Nelo fight super big. Putting two important fights on the same card (Mayweather vs anybody and Trout vs Canelo) can lengthen the process of making the fight.

              Trout will upset Canelo though. Let's just hope he doesn't get robbed

                [QUOTE=diallo;12928821]The date is supposed to be May 4th. We're halfway through January. Training camp is 2 months. That's all of March and April. Floyd always says it takes 6 months to promote a fight. We're 3 1/2 months away. What are they waiting on?[/QUO
                I don't know but 50 Cent said he can't hang with Floyd cause he's tired of running from Pacquaio

                  Actual Floyd makes money off Canelo's fan base by having him on the card cause most Mexicans wouldn't buy his boring a$$ fights.,

                    When Mayweather's fights are announced, you would never have to question if it has been announced yet.

                      No opponent for Mayweather has been announced. It has been announced that Floyd will fight someone on May 4th and everything points to Guerrero as his opponent.
