Pretty much, if he does not fight Canelo in September, it will most likely be a alexander or 140 guy moving up, or 154 guy moving down, or one of the current 147 champs.

This must be leonard himself. Refusing to step in the ring with Pac by demanding a 70-30 split when both fighters brought ppv buys and fan bases to the promotion is a coward move Fighting b level fighters like guerrero is a coward move. Fighting washed up past their prime fighters llike Oscar and Cotto at 154 is a coward move. Fighting potential b level fighters like Khan, Alexander, n Garcia instead of a legitimate threat like Canelo at 154 is a coward move. Know your boxing n what the term coward means u idiot.

I think what people fail to remember. Floyd is 36 years old. If Canelo beats him, are people gonna call his victory over Floyd a coward move over a past their prime fighter? Floyd fought the so-called washed up Cotto and he is older than Cotto. He fought the so-called washed up Oscar when Oscar just turned 34 years old. Pac fought the washed up Oscar a year and a half later when he was turning 36 in a couple of months. He fought Guerrero because that was his mandatory. People forget when Floyd made the sarcastic tweet about Alexander, the WBC indicated that Floyd had to fight the Ghost.

Time for Floyd to put his money where his mouth is. Can't give Guerrero a shot and then deny Canelo one....

Which weight did he fight Canelo at? OH aight when he fought Oscar, DLH was the man and called ALL the shots so Floyd had to follow suit if he wanted the pay day, because Oscar was the BIG dog. Now that Floyd took over he doesn't have to bend for canelo at all, if Canelo wants Floyd fight him at his weight... Or fight Lara... GGG cats that he will only out weigh by a few pounds on fight night.

I can't really think of anyone besides Bradley but he's tied up with Marquez lol. I will say though if he beats Canello then we will be asking who is there to fight next all over again.

Then that is why floyd is number 1 lol,but bradley os top rank so that is a no go anyways, canelo is the only logical choice for floyds fight. if he only has 5 fights left I am sure no one wants him to use each slot on some no hoper.

Duran wasn't a welterweight when he went up and fought Leonard and he for damn sure wasn't a MW when he went and fought Hagler and holy shyt he for fu**in sakes wasn't nowhere close to being a SMW when he went up and fought Barkley! But guess what!?? He did and he won because he was a champion!! His best weight was 130 but it wasn't about being the best at his weight it was about being the best period!

Top 10 p4p all time great and that was back then.


The problem is Floyd gets $32 million whether he fights Andre Ward or me.

He is the king in both weight classes, have some respect. That said.. it's only fair he give Canelo his shot. He's promoted by Oscar and fights on showtime. The kid is Mexican and has a growing fanbase. I'm already getting flashes of Ali-Foreman.

Yeah wait for AMIR KHAN and DEVON ALEXANDER to come up to test his SUPER SKILLS

Floyd is gonna be considers by most top 10 p4p when it's all said and done so he should earn it. Fight Canelo at 154 he did it for DLH and he did it for Cotto. If he really is the best do it for Canelo.

Yup... Floyd was the highest ranked welterweight..... Guerrero, the highest ranked welterweight contender... so yeah... Guerrero was next in line.

and next is.... JMM
next is.... Bradley
next is.... Pac
next is.... Alexander

Why is it frustrating for you that Mayweather is so dominant, even the closest competition don't have a chance?

You call him a cherry picker and demand he move up weight.... otherwise he is ducking.

I'll tell you what... lets apply that same logic to Canelo...

next in line is... Molina
next is.... Trout
next is.... Smith
next is.... Baysangurov

How are his closest competition any challenge.... He shouldn't cherry pick either... He should move up to fight Geale, Golovkin, Quillin, Sturm.

All would be the biggest fight of his career... he could sell ppv.... he could demand the majority of the purse....

Yeah... Canelo can wait his turn

Thanks!! One of the most accurate posts.

Typical Floyd fan backing up the coward hero. Didn't Floyd win the 154 title last year vs a past his days Cotto? So ur coward hero is scared to fight a young lion who hits like a truck at 154? lol

Cotto earned his stripes... And Mayweather didn't have any other worthy opponent to fight. When Oscar was the draw who called ALL the shots when it came to him and Floyd? Who is the number one guy in the sport right now? OH OK

If Canelo want's Floyd come to his weight like Dawson did Ward, like Rios is doing Pac, like Rosado did GGG, you see the trend?? If you want the TOP dog you have to go to his weight ******!

Why do you think Canelo fought Trout in Texas?? Because Canelo was the draw and Trout had to follow suit. Now it is time for canelo to take and seat and play the supporting role... I know you can't come back with any logic like I just hit you with, but sometimes dudes need to be schooled.

Being the professor I am I feel obligated to help a struggling student.

If Canelo is going to come in at 173, Floyd might as well fight Ward. Just have Floyd come in at 147 and Ward at super middle in a Fight Night-style interdivision matchup. lol

Another great reply!!
