Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Canelo Wants Floyd Mayweather Jr. Next

[Supreme Being]

CANELO vs PACMAN on October...

[Rockdrigokstro]

You're a Floyd hater! Canelo is clearly 20-22 pounds heavier than Floyd on fight night, boxing skills Canelo would get destroyed by Floyd! Power Canelo is much stronger... Now if Canelo fought GGG, Kid Chocolate, Martinez, Lara, Ward, people who could take that power he would get his ass whooped. He got a gift decision yesterday!

Like I have been saying for a few weeks, if one of these cats don't take canelo out in the next year or so!! BRONER will be on his ASS chasing canelo, mark my words on this! I PROMISE YOU THAT!

What the he'll you're talking about? Really son Broner? I don't like Canelo but if Canelo fights vs Broner, he'd kill Him in a single round

exactly I remember people use to say hatton will get Floyd on the ropes and tko him via body shot

then after Floyd beat hatton, they called Ricky a bum lmao

im glad some one else remembered that crap. the ring magazine even said if floyd didnt fight hatton they would drop him in the ratings. then after toying with and beating hatton, he was not so tough after all. haters always want floyd to fight much bigger foes while "other" superstars get to fight the same man 5 times and thats ok.

How do I know when a fighter poses a legitimate threat to Floyd Mayweather? When his fans come out in flocks to bash and critique the other guy and play offense with a million reasons why Floyd would K.O. or outbox the other guy. We've seen this for Pacquaio, Martinez, Paul Williams, and now Canelo...what do all of these guys have in common..they have an advantage over Floyd in terms of power and some in terms of reach and size. If you hold a belt at 154 defend that belt or vacate it...problem solved...at some point you are going to have to fight the legit men of that division and not some 147lb guy who just happened to move to 154 to take a title from a beatable guy in his decline.

where did you get your boxing info from???? top rank? what advantage does pac have? he couldnt ko tim bradly on two broke ankles. martinez,p. will and canelo have size. and at least floyd fought a legit man at 154. not some dude who never fought at 154 and yet there are two dudes fighting for the 154 strap and neither one of them ever fought at 154. too funny!!! and what fans of any boxer does not come out to trash talk and back up their fighter??? if a fighters fans are not willing to do that, what a weak bunch of fans they have.

And more deaths. This isnt clever, its ****** and bases itself on the incorrect assumption that all fighters have an identical metabolism and can micromanage things like rehydration. Go and talk to some fighters or hang out with some who are busting their ass to make weight. If they gain 20lbs its just weight, not strength...that takes a lot longer than 36 hours to return. Gaining too much back too quickly is actually more of a hindrance than a help.

I cannot believe some of the dumb **** I'm reading here today.

So you are ok with fighters being 20lbs over the weight limit?

Castillo defeated Floyd. Marquez was way too small and and slow at that weight and Floyed was on his bike most of the time, never hurting Marquez. De la Hoya won!!! He was robbed, or at least a draw. Canelo can beat Cotto, Margarito defeated Cotto twice, the second was a gift to Cotto due to the eye injury. Ortiz was hurting Floyd.

Dude you're making me laugh.

I'm not even a fan of Floyd, I enjoy watching his fights same as I do Pacquiao, Marquez, Canelo, Cotto or any other.

The stuff you said is just a hate post. Mind you, he did put Marquez on the floor so i'm not exactly sure what you are talking about.

If you go and look at the old interviews with Brian Kennedy, he was saying Floyd was ducking Marquez, Hatton and Mosley. This was backed up by other guys such as Freddy Roach who said Floyd would never fight him.

But once he beat them, it was because they were all crap. It's ridiculous.

And now Floyd is ducking a fighter who isn't even in his weight class! He's at least 2 weights above him. Floyd could probably make 135 easy. Yet people put him down for not fighting a guy weighing 175+ when he's in the ring.
