Richard Schaefer: Mayweather-Alvarez talks set to begin

[al-Xander]

It's their job as Flowmosexuals to not want him to fight legit threats.

Then they say how Floyd clearly whoops their ass, and how unmeaningful the fight is, and continue on to defend fights like Guerrero/Ortiz/Alexander.

They're literally like 7 year old kids who threaten other kids
take away their toys if they don't do what they want.

"stop asking for this fight, or else your idol will get beat..."
Have never seen such childish behavior in an adult site.
hehe... been fun clowning these clowns.

Yep, and think it's cool to waste precious fights from one of the best boxers in the game.

"It's only a tune up fight!"

How many times have we heard that, and how come we keep hearing that? Vacation taker.

i want Canelo to win it, but he aint ready

[AgainstTheRopes]

Great now GBP is going to piggyback off Mayweather's name just like Top Rank did with pacquiao.

[Kagami Taiga]

I highly doubt he's going to wait for Mayweather to come to him.

He waited for a feather fisted trout to come to him. That's his style. Just accept it. Fighters don't change overnight. Canelo isn't gonna come out and just start throwing against the most defensively brilliant fighter in the last 20 years.

It's called a gameplan bro, different plans for different opponents.

No trainer worth his salt is going to have Canelo go out there, shell up and wait for Mayweather to come to him. The order will be to pressure Mayweather, particularly as the bigger man.

Yes and u cannot expect or make a fighter change their fight style or approach in one fight. It doesn't work that way, its easy to say. But once they get in that ring, all of the old habits and muscle memory will kick in, anyone who boxes knows this. In fact your prime example should be Ricky Hatton in the pacquiao fight. Canelo isn't gonna suddenly become a pressure fighter who cuts off the ring and throws hundreds of punches. It aimt gonna happen.

He doesn't need to cut off the ring, Mayweather was only able to move once Guerrero tired and absorbed punishment, before that it was toe-to-toe (check the first couple of rounds and the commentators mentioning Floyd's flat-footedness). He won't need to throw hundreds of punches either, he has high connect accuracy - pushing double Trout's when they fought and some serious power behind them.

What he does need to do is get in Mayweather's face early on and land some hard punches like he did against Matthew Hatton. If he is aggressive he can do a Mosley (R.2) on Floyd. Guerrero landed some good shots early on, and he is a lot slower and lighter punching than Alvarez.

Maywesther was only able to move? Lol. Smh u are very delusional about Floyds skills. Don't let hate cloud your judgment. Guerrero didn't tire in one or two rounds. Smh if that's the basis of your post u should seriously think about revising it. Not only that, u say Guerrero hit Floyd, sure with what tho? Nothing that landed cleanly to the face and a few body shots. Saying he needs to land on mayweather like he did on Hatton and Mosley, who stood right in front of him because they had no choice, is asking a great bit. Because frankly. It isn't gonna happen. Without a jab, which canelo doesn't use, he will have a hard time landing anything unless mayweather chooses to stand in front of him.

Should be a huge money making fight. I got a lot of people asking me if Canelo - Mayweather will ever be made and these questions are coming from peeps that do not know much but they know Canelo's name. Just saying Canelo is on the mind of many average Americans
