Comments Thread For: Canelo's Trainer: Mayweather Wants a Lower Weight

[Metho_4u]

I would say the bigger issue is that Canelo is almost a LHW on fight night vs. Floyd who isn't even a real JMW. I'm not for CW's at all so I will not support that. If Canelo decided to come down, that would be up to him. Canelo's team wants the weight advantage because that is all they really have as far as their chances to win.

lmao at the idea that somehow people would know who canelo is but not mayweather, especially if they watch boxing, come on man. EVERYONE knows who he is at this point.

if this was 2006 youd have a point, but today? dont be ******

say if floyd grows a pair of balls and takes the the fight you tellin me hes gonna be the one that brings in all the $$$? dont be ignorant..........

Did you say the same thing when Canello fought Lopez, Ndou, or Gomez who were all 140 pounders when he was at 154?

When did any of these guys have to drain themselves??? And apparently you didn't know that Alvarez tried to get Kirkland, Williams, and others in the ring. And this is not about whether what Floyd is asking is right or wrong, it is about HIS OWN WORDS in contradictions! And the words of his fans who said Floyd would NEVER do catchweights and used that against Pac. Shoe is on the other foot now.

I see what you mean. Manny vacated quite fast when Martinez and Williams came calling at 154.

actually Martinez offered to come down to 150 for manny... no response.

Wow! lol! Im done watching this ***** of a fighter. I will continue to watch boxing but I will not watch any more Mayweather fights. What a ***** ass scared lil chicken. Keep on ducking floyd ! Bok ! Bok ! Bok !

Yeah yeah lie ur azz off-you will either watch and pay,or get sloppy seconds on utube.

Floyd and Canelo do have something in common though. They both have beat two people at 154. The only problem is on guy has been fighting at 154 his whole career and the other guy started at 130 and worked his way up.

Another rehydration bozo.

Floyd should take the fight at 154,and just have a contract that states canelo cant come in heavier then 164 on fight nightand make the fight happen...he made marquez come upto fight him at 142,and didnt care about making weight against a lightweight,....so wuts the difference in this situation.....no excuses floyd take the risk if your the best.

Truly sad ****.

Are you talking about it's ok for one guy to duck because of his opponents style, but not ok for the other?

No, I'm talking about common sense. Yes, in essence they're both ducking, but the other fighter clearly has the style to move up to said weight.

It's much harder for a slugger to move up in weight than a slickster with one of the longest reaches around those weights.

I'm not defending Manny, but it's not as black and white as you make it out to be.

Reach is a HUGE factor in boxing. You ever hear the term, "your arms are too short to box with God."
